My biggest one is The Cooper Temple Clause frown A few years ago checked their website to see when they were next playing London, only to find the day before they'd posted a message about them splitting frown Still gutted.

Nirvana.






Cooper Temple Clause? They were st. Saw them far too often supporting an actually decent band or at festivals etc. Always terrible.

The Police in Fréjus SOFrance 1980 http://vimeo.com/groups/363/videos/2000025


I saw Aha in a Fréjus in 1986, and I didn't want to go, but they were fantastic! This is when they had a hit with 'Living day lights' and the film had just been released, there were billboards all over the SOF at the time.

Queen at Wembley stadium mid 80's

I also would have loved to see The Bee Gees at the One Night Only concert.

I've seen both Nirvana & (original line up) Guns N' Roses, so I'll go with The Beatles.

I'd probably find all that screaming too annoying, though....

I take it you have Stand in the Fire, possibly the greatest live album ever made.
