There was a glimmer of a chance to see Pink Floyd in 1994 but my first son was due that year so I had to decline. Little did I know it was their last tour.

Fields Of The Nephilim played localy in 1991 but I missed that for some reson or another.

Porcupine Tree played at a venue a short bus ride away 18 months ago but I only found out about it next day :(

Flipping that over, I was lucky to get tickets for Ministry's last tour in October last year as they sold out very quickly and also Killing Joke last year on only 3 dates in the UK.

Oh, and Aesop Rock at the Fillmore about a month ago last year,

Radiohead: They played Houston a week before I became a big fan, ****.

Dr. Octagon vs Dr. Doom: Kool Keith did a show in Austin last Thursday and I couldnt find a ride.

Bob Dylan: He played 3 nights in Dallas and I didnt find out until a couple days later, they should of sent me a memo or something.

And now I really really want to Flight of the Conchords in Houston, but the tickets sold out almost as soon as they went on sale, now I have to come up with a couple hundred dollars to buy some tickets off ebay.

I also missed Gaslight Anthem, who I hear puts on a good show. It was probably cheap, too, since it was at this local club.

Yer pretty feckin' old, eh?

I missed out on a few concerts I wanted to go to since I've been at college, namely Band of Horses & They Might Be Giants. There's more on the way though, might have to miss out on Dinosaur Jr. in April. :(

Ummm, let's see:

Every damn opportunity because my dad wouldn't feel "right" about letting me see most of the bands I like.

Well, I missed Pearl Jam's first apperance in VA in about a decade this past summer.

I'm still kind of annoyed about that.

Yeah, I could see that, though I don't consider me or my crowd teenybopper. Unless you just hate kids.
