Talking Heads... (although I've seen David Byrne)
orbital... (although I've seen Phil Hartnoll's new band LongRange)
Not the same though
:\ohwell:
Oh and the Smiths. My flat mate had a spare ticket to see them in Leicester on their last tour but I wanted to stay in with me girlfriend as we had the place to ourselves... A bad move in soooo many ways!

Good choice, though I took this as reading "bands you could've seen, but haven't bothered" - Talking Heads broke up in, what, 1983 or summat didn't they? So we would've all been dead young. Did have an older-ex when I was a young 'un who saw them at the Astoria though, but the gig didn't really mean much to her and she couldn't see that I was gobsmacked she'd actually seen 'em!
Shame on you for not seeing Orbital though, Rich!

I think that the Talking Heads went on until about 1991, Al. But not sure that they toured much over here after about 84...
Yeah, Orbital I'm still gutted about. Especially as they played some of their last gigs here in Brighton. I thought- "there'll be loads of tickets left. I'll get em later- gotta skin up now"
The Faces (b4 74'), Velvet Underground (b4 68'), Television (original line-up), Scott Walker (even though he never played live post Walker Bros., Talking Heads (up to 82')

Madness or Television as well
Also. Days of Internet affords more Information. Born Slippy. Live. Everything Everything. Cow- Girl.
Oblivion w/ Bells sets the world right. Wish I'd seen any of their Beaucoup Fish Tour.
Kraftwerk. New Order. Radiohead. Oasis. They Might Be Giants.
--that's all I can think of at the moment.
