QUOTE (Biker1 @ Feb 3 2011, 09:37 AM) Are we looking at a fantasy list here or at those who are still actually around and able to perform? I was thinking of who could actually do it, bearing in mind capacity issues. I'd prefer it if one could wind the clock back 20/40 odd years? I'd like to see Pearl Jam, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and The Black Crows as well.

I've seen many on people's list including Queens Of The Stone Age, Sigur Rios, Faithless and Oasis. Best ever gig I saw in Newbury was The Prodigy in 96 at a club on Greenham Common that was only open for 3 weeks! Finished at about 6 a.m. if my memory serves me right As for bands I haven't seen that I'd like to and still exist 1 Interpol 2 Orbital 3 AC/DC (as previously mentioned) 4 Portishead 5 The Dead Weather 6 Fresh and Onlys 7 The Vaccines 8 Glasvegas 9 Chapel Club 10 Besnard Lakes

Agree on the X Factor lark. Yes, I probably have heard songs by them, just never knew who it was . I am mainly into dance/pop music tbh though.
