Yep. Not seen or worked with those guys yet LOL.

Never thought of how weird that actually is

And I think they have just stopped live performance so maybe you won't have the chance.

Status Quo, Rush (multiple), Yes (multiple), Fleetwood Mac (multiple), Bryan Adams, Pink Floyd, ABWH, Thunder (multiple), Midge Ure from memory very quickly.

Regret never seeing Queen and missing out on Springsteen in '84 when a girlfriend went not knowing who he was as there was a spare ticket going and didn't tell me.

Shard

Would love to have seen Fleetwood Mac back in the day.

Mr Bean

Yep. I did hear that rumour

I turned down a ticket to see them thinking I'd go next time. It never happened. I don't have many regrets in life but that is one of them.

I read recently that one of them has retired from drumming. Probably the one who drummed for them but, I suppose, the one who sang might have had a sideline in drumming and packed that in. One can only hope the retired one was also the lyricist.

Which is why I said "didn't", not "haven't". .... Neil Peart's shoulders aren't up to the rigours of touring.
Yes, Neil Peart was the drummer-lyricist, and probably one of the smartest people in rock music, other than perhaps Dr Brian May. Rush simply couldn't exist without Neil Peart, although he wasn't an original member he pretty much took over control of the band from their second album onwards.

I saw Queen a year or two before Live Aid. They were good, but not great (and I was big fan at the time). I think their reputation has far outgrown their live performance as a result of the Live Aid / Rio events. And Freddie's death too. These days I find grey haired badger-badged Brian May a bit of geriatric, somehow.

Shard

​Rush lyrics (early ones) are great.

What do you expect when you look like a gangster? Especially when you have lulled them into a false sense of security with such a benign name?

"The glittering prizes and endless compromises shatter the illusion of integrity yeah"


it's not on a par with

"She loves you, yeah, yeah"

is it? Perhaps if they put a "babe" on the end.

my uncle had a country place...before the motor law...down in his barn, my uncle preserved for me an old machine... (Red Barchetta)

Could be you DBD

Pulaski

I can't argue with that.

Glad I did get to see Rush in Toronto (once); sad I missed Motorhead here (twice).

Finest gig I ever saw was the Bad Brains at the Camden Electric Ballroom. The smaller gigs >>>>>> stadia.

I saw the Bee Gees in Regina way back when, and now the records of that concert have been erased for some reason.... it seems odd, even if it was booked after the tour was announced.
