Keep music live... (and all that...)
Inspired by MarkReed (who in turn was inspired by Adamant )
Instructions:
1 - Comment to this post telling me which of the 30 artists listed below, you have also seen perform.
2 - Take the ones from my list that you have seen (if any), and post them on your own blog.
3 - Add to those until you have 30 of your own
The first 11 are in common with MarkReed, 12 & 13 are in common with Adamant… the rest are mostly just in the order that they popped into my head (I’m sure I could make better selections if I stopped and thought for a while, but that’d be no fun)… Magnum, Meatloaf & Marillion were all in the first year I really started to go to gigs, so regardless of current perceptions they hold a special place in my heart (or at least the do if I listen to stuff they were doing back then & try to remember how it was back then, etc etc.…)

Maiden were fantastic when I saw them in Birmingham. Jesus Jones were good as well, but the 2002 shows weren't a patch on the "Doubt" tour.
Excellent list!
Tori Amos live? Did she live up to expectations or fade into weirdness? I always wanted to see her but never managed so I'd be interested to know.
Heh, there is no one on your list that I've seen. I don't think I've even seen 30 artists live. Well, I take that back. I'm sure I have, but I'd have to delve back to the times my parents took me to the Great Northern Bluegrass Festival to get 30, and that was around 25 years ago.
