I saw the thread title and first thought before reading your post was “Queen with Freddy Mercury”

Maradona play in Lothar Matteus' testimonial. I was too lazy to get the train for 35 mins after work and just went to the pub instead.
Michael Jackson - can't remember what i chose over the bad tour, maybe the Bolshoi at Battersea, but it would have been awesome.
Probably loads more.....but they are the ones that immediately spring to mind.

Another one here who thought Queen from the title. Just goes to show how fucking awesome they were.

Sparrowlegs248 · 31/08/2018 22:33

Queen. Prince. Michael Jackson.

Yy to seeing George Michael in concert. I bought tickets in 2012? For a concert in Perth, Western Australia when I lived there. He cancelled, and were offered Elton John or a refund. Refund it was.

I am also very sad that I never saw Avenged Sevenfold with the Rev.

@Samcro

I saw them with the Rev, back in 2007 in a tiny venue, well tiny compared to where they play now!

Must have seen them about 7/8 times in total

PrincessWire · 31/08/2018 22:37

The Rolling Stones in the 60s. I wasn't born till the 70s but I would so love to be able to go back and watch them when they were just starting to get big.

Anasnake · 31/08/2018 22:38

Another vote for George, my absolute idol

Mulberry72 · 31/08/2018 22:39

I saw Queen with Freddie Mercury when I was 13 in 1985 with my Dad.

It was the most amazing, mind blowing thing I’ve ever seen.

Nothing else has ever topped it, and I’ve seen Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston and various others.

cantfindname · 31/08/2018 22:40

Queen with Freddie. Totally awesome, charismatic person. Nothing will ever beat Queen.. the best of the best.

GreenMeerkat OMG i am so JEALOUS i bet it was so good. I saw them a few years back, Nightmare was the big track back then,. sadly they were not good.((weeps) TBH i didn't care as I was there watching them. but to be fair they had not long to get over the Rev.

Nirvana, Bowie, The Beatles.. all before my time sadly

youngestisapsycho · 31/08/2018 22:47

I’ve not seen many, but luckily I did see MJ and George Michael. I wish I could have seen Madonna in her early days.... not a concert but I also wish I could have seen Phantom with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman
