I recently made a trade with a guy on the BJM list and got an awesome bootleg of thiers recorded in New Hampshire,so I've got to 2nd that VU as well,every boot i've heard of theirs is worthy.

Gotta agree with folks about regretting not seeing/wishing I had seen the Clash (although I might be too young).  I also would have liked to have seen Johnny Cash.  Feel good about seeing the Pixies though. My Bloody Valentine got a little boring after a while.

Being a bit on the young side for any serious missage, I think Pavement is the only band I could have seen, but didn't.  Definitely regret that one.
 
 Oh, and Pulp-not-TFC for me too.

The list of performers I shouldda seen live is to long and depressing to think about (including both Tim Buckley and his son).  But among the ones I also couldda seen and managed to screw up the (now lost forever) chance:
 
 Velvet Underground and Nico (Crown & Anchor, Provincetown MA, August 1967)
 The Clash (UM, College Park MD, 1979)
 Roy Orbison (Cape Cod Melody Tent, Hyannis MA, 1988)
 John Hartford (Station Inn, Nashville TN, 1996 among others)
 Danny Gatton (way too many chances passed up)
 
 A few caught just in time:
 
 Joe Pass
 Laura Nyro
 John Fahey

Would have like to see Joe Strummer and At The Drive In during their existence. Still regret missing Converge at 9:30 when they opened for hatebreed.

I saw them in Barcelona a few months before the death of Kurt Cobain and they sucked big time.
