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.

iggy and the stooges in about 1967 before they signed to elektra

Wow, I didn't know M.I.A. stopped doing shows, bummer.

ATDI
Hendrix
Pixies
Hum

Edit: Television
Buzzcocks early days

haha you knew what i was talking about.

the best part is chris with the towel on his head going 'do not make ethnic stereotypes!'

Pretty much 80% of my favorite bands.

kraftwerk
new order
joy division
early mbv
the birthday party
led zeppelin
big black/rapeman
kiss in their younger days
the stooges during raw power
mc5
spacemen 3
and the JaMC riot gigs.

and also television.

this

Pavement (circa 1992)
Velvet Underground (with John Cale)
Minutemen
John Coltrane
Elliott Smith

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

LAWLS!

not worth worrying about

and the risk for bands like hot hot heat or the unicorns surely aint worth it.

is MIA really done though?

A guy can dream.

hahahahaha

Syd Barrett with PF in 66/67
