Prodigy over Blur. :-(

[maelzoid]

Jeff Buckley in Reading '94 and Glasto '94 probably the worse one for me. Grace has since become an all-time favourite and I never got to see him live. I missed Pavement at both those as well, probably because I was watching Terrorvision or something!

A friend of mine is constantly getting verbally abused (by me) for missing Bob Dylan at Glasto '98 to see.... Bentley Rhythm Ace. Admittedly a bad performance by Bob on the day, but still, Bentley Rhythm Ace?!

[Space Shanty]

Of the 15 of us who went to Glasto in 2013, 2 of us went to Radiohead on the Saturday night, 12 went to Kasabian and one went to the tent in a complete mess.

2 out of 15 witnessed the greatest headline set ever (in my opinion).

The rest have never been allowed to forget it

just googled the year, please dear god dont tell me you were at the killers or the twang!!!

[The_Amazing_Oblong]

Had this conversation with my bro and the conclusion I came up with is that whatever you went to see was the right thing at that time.

Fogerty > Rod Y Gab.

Shakira over Frank Turner.

[picicata]

My friend got dragged away by his girlfriend from watching Nirvana at Reading in '92 in order to watch Republica (or something of that ilk!)

I still take the piss now

[MrMac]

Do you ever look through old line ups and think "why the hell didn't I see them/her/him"!

Not much... but I do look through old line ups and think "who the hell did I see that year?" And I don't even take very many drugs.

Shakira over Frank Turner.

Ahh true, BUT, have you since Shakira since? I know the answer about Frank

[ColdSideofthePillow]

For the last five odd years I've looked at the lineup and wondered 'wish I'd got a ticket' least this year I don't have to worry about that!!!

Coz I'm going

I missed Iggy for Africa Express. Still a tough one, but I still think I made the right call there.

Yes! That was a heck of a night in retrospect.

Have to say tho Stu, the "Take over!/I can't take this bullshit anymore/Bring back the Wispa/No Fun" climax to Iggy is something I'll always regret no witnessing first hand.

same

[rubenz]

Seeing chic over Portishead and the Stereo MCs over QOTSA are the main two that I look back on with regret.

no, that's the worst thing I've ever heard actually.

[GlastoSimon]

My worst has to be not being arsed to move after Nick Cave and watching Mumfords with a friend of mine who was keen on seeing them.

'Ah it's okay, I'll just have to see Bobby Womack at one of his shows in the future' Was gutted when I saw he'd passed on whilst waiting for Daptone at WH last year.

EDIT: Most of the other regrets I've rectified by going to the acts' own shows (minus maybe Flaming Lips and QOTSA), but that one wasn't a good moment for me.

Good point, well made. Seen Frank 3 times since then but then again, I wouldn't pay to see Shakira.

[whisty]

I often wake up screaming in a film of cold sweat when my subconscious remembers I missed 'that' Flaming Lips set for Gorillaz.

Walked past them playing on my way to Groove Armada which was rammed then on to Gorrilaz, the tiny bit of the light show I caught was prob the best I've seen. Choices eh!

1st year I went, remains the stand out moment for me ever since. Sorry and all that

[found home in 2009]

I do regret not leaving Gorillaz earlier, only caught the end of Flaming Lips, but it was so much fun.

Normally don't regret missing a band, whilst I've missed plenty of things I'd like to have seen, it's almost always been for something else I've enjoyed.

[matt2007]

95, went to see the Shamen, missed Pulp!!!!

How could *anything* compare???

[amfy]

I know I can beat anything on here.

I missed David Bowie for The Bluetones!

its one of those things I shouldn't even admit to. It gets harder to understand how I did it as the years pass, but I can only say that I have genuinely never been a massive fan of Bowie, and I did really love The Bluetones 'at the time'. The thing is as you look back - The Bluetones???? Really??? How the hell???
