Artists or groups you have never seen in concert, but would love to. Which ones? Active or retired ones.

I never got to see Supertramp live, although I thankfully DID see Roger Hodgson when he played at Norwegian Wood some years ago. He wrote more than half of the Supertramp songs anyway. Now it's unlikely I'll ever see them live, as Rick Davies has seemed to retire completely after their 40th anniversary tour in 2010. I also never saw Pink Floyd with Waters and Gilmour both in place. I saw them live for the DIVISION BELL tour in 1994, but that was without Waters. And then I saw Waters solo in Stavanger some 8-9 years ago. So combined, I guess I've seen them, but that doesn't really count. I'd really love to see Alan Parsons live at some point, but he seems to avoid Northern Europe completely, much less Norway. And now that Eric Woolfson -- the main songwriter -- is dead, it's impossible to see the original line-up. Finally, I would have loved to see Oingo Boingo live, but they disbanded in 1995, just as I was discovering them. And I don't think they ever played outside the US anyway (heck, hardly even outside LA). Other favourites I've never seen live -- but would have loved to -- include Beach Boys, Jethro Tull, 10CC, Electric Light Orchestra, Vangelis, Paul Oakenfold, Juno Reactor, Tangerine Dream. Just to mention some.

I never got to see Tangerine Dream. They never played in my area during the 70's/80's/90's. Finally, TD played the Moog Festival here in NC a few years ago, and I was all set to pay an overpriced ticket just to catch their show only. But as luck would have it, my plans fell through, and of course, now Froese has passed on. They still play though.

Just to mention some. Like you, I have seen Pink Floyd and Roger Waters. Didn't really bother me that Waters wasn't there in 94. Also, Parsons, Vangelis, Oakenfold, Juno and TD - yes thanks! Must have been great to be in Rotterdam in 1991 when Vangelis played one of his very few concerts. Jethro Tull even played in Kristiansand some years ago.

I never did see Sparks live, they're doing some great stuff today, but it's the seventies Sparks I should have seen. So er...why doesn't the thread originator list his? Too many to mention.
