I think the only band that I really would have enjoyed live, but now can never see, would be The Beta Band. I had ample opportunity, but always thought, "Next time ..." I have no others. After all, I did see Neutral Milk Hotel live, and y'know, my life's complete now.

Now back to being old (I saw Hendrix at the Winter Festival for Peace at Madison Square Garden about 6 months before he died).

It's pretty darn good. A bit sweeter sounding than Naturaliste, yet just as bittersweet. All in all nothing earthshaking but still the perfect music for a sunny spring afternoon. Stewart C.

Sunlandic is better. Screw beck this is the the shit. Only the Decemberists' Picaresque compare as far as 2005 releases go.

Well, your question was "They *did* tour, didn't they?" and not "They *did* tour the States, didn't they?". ;-) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2005 14:24:12 +0100 From: "Matt Sewell" Subject: Krautrock I've missed Seething with jealousy here...

Lucky! I saw Squeeze in 87 as well, but I would've loved to see them around 1980. For me: Syd Barrett Pink Floyd Beatles John Lennon Marvin Gaye New Musik Slowdive Television (does this count?) The Monochrome Set The dB's (before Stamey left) Captain Beefheart Talking Heads Bruce Woolley and the Camera Club Modern Lovers The Only Ones Velvet Underground Love Dag The Cars Nigel and the Crosses The Soft Boys (Portland Arms 78' era) I'm sure I'm missing 1 or 2 important ones... - -Nuppy ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2005 10:51:14 -0400 From: "Bachman, Michael" Subject: RE: Bands I'll never see.....
