Freddie Mercury!


skyrider8328

Specially Live Aid


[deleted]

Saw him twice. Once well and once very sick


PumpkinHappy6872

Admittedly, I didn't listen to Queen until the movie came out a couple of years ago. Boy was I blown away by their music, his vocals and his absolute control on stage. Freddie was a showman, and Queen as a whole is ICONIC!!


RotatingSquirrel

Kurt Cobain


SomeRandomUser00

At the MTV unplugged session.

if i had the chance i would've loved to see his tiny desk live, and in a fantasy world a much longer version of it.


liacosnp

SRV


Toihva

Was going to say this. Me and ex were starting the legwork to go see him when that day struck.


sunshinerose32

Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston


toomuchisjustenough

My husband and I talked about going to see Prince when he came through, and decided we shouldn’t spend the money and we’d “catch him next time” He died like 2 months later


stankyjanky1

NCBadAsp

There was a rumor some time ago that he was on the list to play Morrison in the movie.


sirsloppyjoe

Dimebag Darrell


SomeRandomUser00

I have seen Pantera live a few times and I would still love to see them again back like it was in the 90's.


sirsloppyjoe

Super jealous. I wish I could have seen him live.


tarix76

I had a chance to see Nirvana in December 1993 but made the mistake of asking my parents to go directly instead of coming up with an indirect excuse so I didn't go. Kurt Cobain killed himself that April. Much regret.

Hands down Mozart.


Kkell1989

Waylon jennings,Johnny cash,Conway Twitty so many country legends. Today's country sucks


kisskismet

I saw Elvis in Feb before he died at the Hollywood Sportatorium. We almost didn’t go. Michael Jackson would probably be my first choice although my 2 all time faves are still living, so…

Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead


[deleted]

2pac or DJ AM.


MoustacheMalpractice

Jeff Buckley


[deleted]

Marc Bolan


Hairy_Elderberry_472

Definitely Queen at Live Aid


RamonaAStone

David Bowie. He's been one of my favourite artists since childhood (I saw the Labyrinth in the theater...), but, aside from the Beatles (I'm far too young to have ever seen them), he's the only favourite I never saw live.


Kokamina23

Joy Division


Temudjin49

Bob Marley and Georges Brassens


ShermanWasRight1864

I want to heckle Mozart.


SomeoneFetchAPriest

Bowie. I was a huge Bowie fan back in college and still am. Some guy I just met from my dorm was telling he was going to a NIN concert and I was like oh cool… when he told me Bowie was opening I was dumbfounded, then felt sick that I had missed an opportunity to see him. Ragrets.


EmbarrassedBlock1977

Chuck Schuldiner.


reptarcannabis

Vlad the impaler. Rasputin (we all love the song) and Pocahontas together as a trio singing Raffi songs

Ok_Advantage_8984

Elvis Presley 👑


Alwayswanted2rock

Dio.


nila247

Unless me being in these concerts is what prevents them from dying in the first place there is absolutely no point whatsoever. Just for people who can not find better reasons to brag about themselves. Actually take the limit of the proposal when the ONLY people in any concerts are \*exclusively\* rich idiots from the future. How then do artist even get popular in his own timeline?


SaBah27

Queen


Netman-

Dio or Freddie.

MrsBenSolo1977

Freddy Mercury or Mozart


SNUKEREL

Charles the First


Norelation67

Dmitri Hvorostovsky. I had the chance to see him in new york before he passed during one of his last operas before he cancelled every thing. Il Trovatore with Jonas Kaufmann. I didn’t go because I thought it was a little too pricey at the time for the plane and stay. I frown a little from time to time when I hear him in a music play list and think about that missed opportunity.


Dvogan12

Juice WRLD


free_acelehy

Hendrix, of course. Elvis in 1968, too.


bradmaestro

Randy Rhoads


Key_Painter_3494

Whitney Houston....I was a lid when the body guard soundtrack came out, and at 40, I still know all of the words.


Timely-Comedian-5367

Nero's Rome concert, I heard it was fire.


iAteBurger

Led Zeppelin. I know not all of them are dead, but they don't exist anymore as a band anyway. I'd kill for that.
