Thorp and Sailor's Grave Board

Are there many bands you still want to see live?

Discipline - 10-8-2009 at 08:24 PM

I don't mean bands that broke up years ago that you never got to see (Minor Threat, etc.), but bands still playing you haven't seen yet. I basically never go to shows anymore, and most bands I like can't get me to leave the house (unless it's the Dayglo's)

Bands I'd actually leave the house for:

Joe Coffee
Slapshot
Negative Approach
Easy Action
Ducky Boys
Kings of Nothing
Social Distortion
TMF
Street Dogs
Mad Sin

Vanilla Gorilla - 10-8-2009 at 08:42 PM

There are tons of bands i would leave the house to see, thing that sucks is not many bands i want to see come to within driving distance.

BKT - 10-8-2009 at 08:45 PM

Immortal (number one beyond all)
Grave
Led Zeppelin (NOt going to happen)
Wisdom In Chains (was supposed to when they were in toronto and ended up not going)
Behemoth

I think I've seen almost every band I've ever been into with the exception of Skid Row with Sebastian Bach singing and of course all the ones that broke up before my time. I've basically put an end to seeing "concerts" any more. These are the ones that are an exception:

Springsteen (seen him 11 times. Still not enough)
Alice in Chains (5 times now with the new singer. will keep going)
Bright Eyes/Conor Oberst
Wilco (only if they play a seated venue though)
Anthrax (with John Bush, saw them once but would appreciate them more now)
Life of Agony (same as above)
Megadeth (only band on this list I've never seen)
Paul Westerberg
Angels & Airwaves (I saw them once before but I was shitfaced and didn't get to enjoy it)
The Rolling Stones (I saw them once at a 2000 capacity theater. I'd like to see them play an arena or stadium before they all die)
Guns N' Roses (any reunion show would get my money. I'd like to see "Guns N' Roses" once in support of Chinese Democracy now that I know the songs)
Ozzy (I'd like to see him solo or with Sabbath once more)

Reign Supreme
Ramallah
54-40
Dark Funeral
AC/DC
Body Count
Pittbull

MM Immortal is a must see. I saw them at the Opera House around the time Sons of Northern Darkness came out. Abbath did his fire breathing, played all sorts of awesome songs. Was a great set list. I'd go see them again in a heartbeat.

They just put a new album out so I am really hoping they make their way back to Canada. I had no idea they played toronto before, would have loved to see that.

That band is crazy. I bought one of their albums years ago and thought it was pretty funny. What so they call themselves the scariest band in the world or something like that.

MM.

DAK - 10-8-2009 at 11:00 PM

Slapshot
Negative Approach
Wisdom In Chains
Bonecrusher
The Wretched Ones
Dayglo Abortions
Agnostic Front
The Pogues

DaveMoral - 10-9-2009 at 01:02 AM

I can't say there are any. If Bad Brains and the Cro-Mags didn't get me out of the house probably nothing would.

With the exception of Vegan Reich, and I have to say that's mostly because that's a good friend's band more so than that I actually want to go to shows anymore. Too loud, and I have some serious tinnitus going on.

tireironsaint - 10-9-2009 at 02:01 AM

There's lots of bands I haven't gotten the chance to see that I would love to finally see someday. I actually just bought a ticket tonight for one of those, I'm finally gonna see The Pogues in a couple weeks and I'm stoked! I've seen Shane with The Popes before and that was amazing, but just not quite the full experience.
I'm really considering going to Fun Fun Fun this year almost entirely for the chance to see Fucked Up. I was gonna blow it off because I'm kinda broke right now, but a free lance gig has come through that should give me a nice payday and cover the whole trip easily for me.

As far as a list goes, I would say that Discipline's list is pretty close, definitely want to see
Joe Coffee
Slapshot
Negative Approach (saw 'em once, but would love at least once more)
Easy Action
Kings of Nuthin'
Bonecrusher
and I'm sure there's tons more that aren't coming to mind right at the moment. I've been fortunate enough to see a lot of my favorite bands, but I think I'll always want to see more.

I finally found it, the other bands weren't worth remembering which is why I couldn't before. Way back in 2002, plus they played with Halford and others in 2003:



Manowar took over an hour to get on after Immortal and 2 songs into I didn't want to ruin my night any further so I left.

They ain't Immortal by any means but it looks like some good black metal is coming your way soon. I went to see Marduk at the Kathedral with Amon Amarth back around 01/02 but Marduk never came into the country (same problem when I went to Dark Funeral & Cannibal Corpse, DF didn't come) so they are both on my list still.


JawnDiablo - 10-9-2009 at 05:53 AM

good god too many to list

XHonusWagnerX - 10-9-2009 at 06:04 AM

I gotta add ANTiSEEN, KING DIAMOND, PENTAGRAM, BITTER, BLACK FAG, PRIMUS, SEX PISTOLS, CARCASS, SINNERS & SAINTS ;), SLOPPY SECONDS and BLACK SABBATH to my list of never seen, but really want to.

I saw ALICE IN CHAINS on the 'Clash of the Titans' tour with Slayer, Megadeth & Anthrax.

I saw UGLY KID JOE, does that count for Life of Agony? ;)

I got to see GUNS N ROSES on the Appetite for Destruction tour (88 or 89?) opening for Aerosmith.

Being 36 and a music addict, I have seen nearly every band I have wanted to see, except...


Bands I could very well see in the near future:
WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM
IMPALED NAZARENE
ALICE IN CHAINS
JANES ADDICTION
MINISTRY
NIN
STONE TEMPLE PILOTS

Not Gonna Happen:
DARKTHRONE - havent played a show since the early 90's
YDL - never got to see, ever!
BLACK FLAG - but I did see the Rollins BF set in 2003, AMAZING!
MINOR THREAT - well, Im not THAT old!

Discipline - 10-9-2009 at 09:27 AM

Can't believe I forgot to add Discipline to my list.:bigsmile:

Antiseen and The Pogues as well.

You lucky bastard. I saw them 3 times supporting Use Your Illusion but even Izzy was gone by then.

I'd LOOOOOVE to see Izzy play solo. Never gonna happen though, I'm sure.
