To many bands to mention as im a prolific gig goer from late 70's and still going to shows .
My first gig was The Ramones in 1978 age 12 . Favourite gig The Clash 1979 age 13 , my least fav gig is still U2 first Belfast gig . My next gig will be my fav band Nine Below Zero on 3rd Jan 15. Should have been The Who but Irish tour got put back till 2015. Might go see Fozzy in March 15 but might be to old...lol.
Heard The Murder Junkies were planning coming to Europe in 2015 so would love to see them and Evan Dando live before I die.

I'll bet that seeing The Clash live in '79 was quite an experience, to say the least.

I would have loved to see the Ramones and the Clash near their peak.

Thought i'd post this here seeing as people are looking at this music thread currently.

Tonight on BBC 4, 10PM - Foo Fighters: Sonic Highways

Foo Fighters go on a musical tour of America, from the desert to the Midwest and from jazz to punk, visiting the studios and meeting the musicians that have helped shape the country's vast musical wealth. Directed by Dave Grohl, the series taps into the musical heritage and cultural fabric of eight cities where the location is only revealed once each episode is broadcast - Austin, Chicago, Los Angeles, Nashville, New Orleans, New York, Seattle and Washington DC.

Along the way they record their eighth studio album, one song in each city at a legendary recording studio integral to its history. Every track features local legends and each episode delves into the identity of each city - showing how the region shaped the members of the Foo Fighters in their formative years and, in turn, how they impacted the cultural fabric of their hometowns. Sonic Highways is, in Grohl's words, 'a love letter to the history of American music.'Following the opening double-bill of programmes 1 and 2, subsequent episodes will be available on consecutive weeks on BBC iPlayer, then returning to BBC Four for episodes 7 and 8 in December.
