Bands that no longer exist/play shows that you would kill to see.
The majority of the bands I listen to on a regular basis aren't around anymore and even recent bands have retired from playing shows. I'd seriously risk 25-life for some of these bands.
The Unicorns Arab on Radar M.I.A. At the Drive-in Hot Hot Heat before the changed singers |
i've seen MIA a couple times
she did not disappoint AC/DC with bon scott pink floyd on the dark side tour david bowie in his ziggy stardust period basically i would need a time machine |
Pavement
Minutemen Beck circa 1996 The Sonics Hendrix |
hendrix for sure
to quote kurt cobain "the sonics were stupid" which reminds me nirvana basically every band i listen to that's defunct |
He just wished he could have their drum sound.

lmfao what :confused: You've lost me there.. I just knew he was jealous of their booming beats and thats partly why he sacked Chad Channing because he couldn't get the right sound. Speaking of Kurt- a guy stopped me in a gig yesterday to comment on my sweet 'Kurt Cobain' t-shirt which was in fact a Daniel Johnston 'hi, how are you?' t-shirt. :( |
joy division
pink floyd smashing pumpkins (circa 1994) rolling stones (on the 1972 american tour) the velvet underground elliott smith the beatles the birthday party t. rex skid row (with sebastian bach) pulp frank zappa |
