1) Kevin Burgess.
I'm probably the only man on the forum that's already seen Karl Mahoney live on stage.

erm i'm actually struggling to think of more. i've been very lucky in being able to catch most of the acts i love. there are probably a bunch of dubstep artists in that list as well.

I missed Iggy in Benicassim a few years ago God knows why, I will always regret that. And if I ever find myself in the same room that Mr. Nick Cave I'll probably hold on to his leg and never get loose.

I've seen pretty much all my favourite acts, still quite a few i'd like to catch though.
Bowie (festival only, wouldn't pay) Al Green (same) Brendan Benson Weezer (especially if they bring blue/pinkerton to TCOTU) Pulp (not paying 50 sheets to see them on a sunday at hyde park but would love to see them) Dexys Midnight Runners (festival only, not sure if they still gig actually) Smudge Cee-Lo Green Gorillaz Toots & The Maytals The Tallest Man On Earth Mercury Rev (prob go see them next year perform deserter songs) Darker My Love Guided By Voices (if they do a proper tour) New York Dolls Alice Cooper (serious.) NoBunny Shit Horse The Divine Comedy Dave Rawlings Machine sobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan Gil Scott-Heron Tom Waits The Wynd I've seen the white stripes but only headlining glastonbury from 3000 miles away when I wasn't that arsed, I'd go see them pretty much anywhere now even a shit arena, they are the band I wanna see most now.

White Stripes are an absolute MUST see.

I saw Gorillaz and Brendan in Benicassim this year. Gorillaz is a one-time must see tbh, really different kind of spectacle and has that bit of seeing The Clash too. But only once, their songs aren't strong enough. Brendan was quite nice, lovely seeing his girl with the baby showing from the backstage. A little soft and repetitive though, I always tend to think that bar the first Racounteurs album he could give more.

Mercury Rev (prob go see them next year perform deserter songs) Is this happening? I'd love to see Neil Young more than anyone else I can think of right now. Can't believe he only played in Aberdeen last time. ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png)
