There are heaps more but these are the ones that I could remember in about half an hour.

There are a few that I have not seen that I regret not going to as well:

Pink Floyd - I should have gone to the Pulse tour but couldn't get my **** together
The Hoodoo Gurus - I Have never been anywhere that they have been playing, which I find astounding
ZZ Top - again, they've been here a few times but I've never got motivated
Sammy Hagar was touring at the same time as Van Halen were, we picked the wrong concert to go to..........

Yep, I missed them too, through my own fault. My biggest 'Miss' was Nick Cave when I was in France a few years ago. I translated the flyer incorrectly!

Pickles mentioned another group whom I missed live. Thorpey and the Aztecs would have been a hoot, I reckon. Working outside regional centres did have one or two drawbacks.
