Had tickets to Emerson, Lake and Palmer on their tour in '74. But the date was cancelled for a member or two to recover from laryngitis and never rescheduled. Or at least that was what the announcement said.
Missed a bunch of other bands whose dates or appearance locations could not be worked into my schedule. But this sticks in mind since I actually could go and had tickets already.

So no Tupac fans?
The Who played 2 years ago at the Virgin Festival in Baltimore, MD along with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
I have to say that despite the violence and destruction of Woodstock 99', I am so very glad that I was there. I was 17 and went with my older sister and some friends. It was as much a musical experience as it was an exercise in survival. I have no problem understanding how many people actually died there. Lots of great bands, hundreds of thousands of people, just incredible.

And no mention of The Velvet Underground yet?

Even though I'm in the UK I still managed to see VU although by then Lou and John had left. I suppose I could have put the original VU on my list as they were/are one of my all time favourite bands.
