talking heads.

they're all still alive and making music.

they need to work it out and make it happen.


also, grace jones...which, fingers crossed, will be happening for me this summer!

But without Byrne though, right?

Anx's name reminded me I need to see Bowie but it's probably not going to happen as I read he has health issues so probably wont tour again.

My "must see" acts are:


ZZ Top
Aerosmith
Iron Maiden

I've seen everyone I wanted too.

I saw Stevie Wonder perform at the Essence Music Festival a few years back...WOW! He put on a great show. They had to literally pull him of stage. They cut the lights on in the venue and he kept going for another 20 minutes or so. I guess he didn't "get" the message.

I would love to see Sade and Lenny Kravitz.

I've seen them all.....thank goodness.

Have yet to see Sade and didn't really feel compelled to in the past but will next time for sure since she/they are such hermits.

Saw Lenny quite a few times already. Best was in a small place when he opened for The Cult back in 91.

chris and tina are still doing tom tom club, and i think jerry harrison is still producing bands. i've read interviews where tina said she'd do a heads reunion if david byrne would agree to it. soo...?

xlr8r said:

sad but probably true. i wish he'd do just ONE more album and tour. i don't think 'reality' is a proper swan song.

Anxiety said:

I dont care about an album I just want one more chance of a tour. Id be cool to see him even do the cheesy greatest hits type of tour or farewell tour. Im there. I gotta see him.Please please please

now playing: Teenage Wildlife lol

Had a GREAT year for concerts; I managed to see a few of my favourites for the first time - Stevie Wonder, The B52s, David Byrne, Grace Jones.

That leaves:

~ Michael Jackson (in July )

~ Kate Bush

~ Tina Turner

~ Diana Ross

~ Paul McCartney

~ Maxwell

I'd also love to see kd lang and Joni Mitchell. And if Talking Heads ever re-form... lawd almighty.

Oh shit. Gotta add on Michael and Paul. I should have went to Coachella.

I'm not a huge fan but I'd like to see Elton John. And would love to see Brian Wilson - although I'd be scared of being disappointed.

Oh, and George Clinton.

Harlepolis said:

You've never seen him??!

onenitealone said:

Hell naw

xlr8r said:

yeah, just a tour would be nice. i'd LOVE if he did kind of a cabaret set up with a minimal band, where he just sat on a stool and told stories about his life between songs. that would be divine.

Anxiety said:

This is a great idea but I would want him to do it like this and the other night do the full on rock show. That way I get to see him in all rock glory and then genine songcraft versions as well.

Stevie Wonder
Gladys Knight
Sade

Stevie Wonder

Harlepolis said:

Awwww, tha baby.

Harlepolis said:

I pray for you.

Hope you get to see him soon.

Led Zeppelin

Anxiety said:

Me neither.

I'm so disappointed I didn't go to see that tour... I had the chance, but the tickets were a little more expensive than what I was prepared to pay at the time. And, of course, you always think 'There's always next time...'.


I saw him on the 'Outside' tour so I'll die happy, even if that's the first and last time.

Probably Bowie, if he ever decides to tour again. I've only seen him once back in 1990.

MICHAEL fucking JACKSON.






D'Angelo
Brothers Johnson
Chaka Khan (saw her at P's Nokia show for ONE song - not enuf)
Angie Stone

Stevie Wonder
Prince
George Clinton

For me, it would be:

Michael Jackson
Madonna
Stevie Wonder
Sade
