1/21/2014 12:52:42 AM

^^ funny I saw Nickleback at the weenie roast in 2000 or 2001.

It was a side stage on a gravel lot and a guy crowd surfing kicked me in the head.

I just saw Fucked Up and I feared for my life more at the Nickleback show.

1/21/2014 7:17:36 AM

Hendrix and Sublime

1/21/2014 8:38:12 AM

(my nickelback post was in jest.)

Seriously though, i'd probably go back and leave the concert to go make investments and bets using my knowledge of the future if i could go back in time.

1/21/2014 11:13:19 AM

Beethoven yo.

1/21/2014 11:20:14 AM

^^ I assumed you were joking.

I still witnessed that moment in time for better or worse. Mostly worse.

1/21/2014 11:59:46 AM

guilty pleasure..I wouldn't mind seeing Fleetwud Mac in its heyday.

1/21/2014 12:46:35 PM

are they a Fleetwood Mac cover band?

and there should be absolutely no guilt over liking Fleetwood Mac

1/21/2014 12:49:03 PM

^^ Peter Green Fleetwood Mac or Stevie Nicks Fleetwood Mac?

1/21/2014 12:50:05 PM

possibly the daft punk alive tour.

1/21/2014 3:22:07 PM

^^ one opens for the other

1/21/2014 4:07:19 PM

In order of preference:

1. The Doors
2. Led Zeppelin
3. Jimmy Hendrix
4. Nirvana

Since the thread asks for just one it would be The Doors but it wouldn't be an easy choice to turn down the others.

1/21/2014 5:28:57 PM

Hendrix. Rage.

1/21/2014 7:27:21 PM

Bob Marley and the Wailers.

1/21/2014 10:21:47 PM

Midnight Oil. I'm not kidding. If there is any remote chance that they reform, I will fly all the way to Australia to see them in concert just once.

1/21/2014 10:39:16 PM

Credence would be killer.

Bob Marley
Beatles (mustached era)
Original Skynrd

Pink Floyd

1/23/2014 2:16:07 PM

fwiw, other than the occasional flubbed lyric, a chuck berry show today is almost identical to a chuck berry show from anywhere around 1970 or later.

never tunes his guitar, doesn't tell the band shit and the can't keep up, 45 minutes, see you next time

it's simultaneously glorious and a bummer

1/23/2014 2:45:49 PM

Not to be a bummer but outside of a few these answers are boring.

With that being said I'll go Talking Heads, remain in light tour. And just bc I've been listening to the album, Big Black sometime in '87.

1/23/2014 8:07:39 PM

Talking Heads would be awesome. David Bowie would probably be cool too.

1/23/2014 8:48:58 PM

^ Iggy pop from 77-79 would be great too.

1/23/2014 9:09:44 PM

Velvet Underground at the Factory

Meh, I see it as more of a boring question. If I get one chance to see any band ever I am going to have a real hard time passing up some of the most classic bands that I never got to see for some unique hipster pick. I could easily say I want to see At The Drive-In but I would be so pissed if I saw that show in place of The Doors or Zeppelin.
