    ..... Ian Dury play live, how the fck did I allow that to happen, I had loads of chances <doh>

    I've seen almost everyone I wanted to see from Bob Dylan through John Cooper Clarke to Siouxsie and the Banshees.

    But I missed out on Dury, Cash & a few others who, now dead, have gone forever.

    Don't ever miss the chance to see someone you like play live.

    saw John Cooper Clark support The Fall about 10 years ago before i knew what he was all about. when he walked on i thought 'who the f**k is this???' He was bloody hilarious! Wish I saw REM before they packed in but also jump into a time machine and see Dylan at his peak, and Siouxsie, and sneak into Folsom Prison to see Cash.

    Love my music but it's a long time since I went to a concert. I have however bought tickets for Joe Bonamassa at the arena in October. Looking forward to that.
    Wish I had seen Alvin Lee n Ten Years After just for "The Bluest Blues" alone.

    I never saw Sampras at his best live. That would have been amazing as far as I am concerned.

    Had a ticket for Bill Haley and the Comets in 1956 but sold it and bought a ticket for NUFC v Us in FA cup 6th round which we won. Also made a small cash profit so good result all round.
