 Topic: Concerts you should not have missed?

Ok, How many of us did not go to that one show, for whatever reason. Only to be tortured for the decision for many a year? I can start by saying that for a mere 200 mile drive I could have seen "The Flower Kings," in a small venue just last summer! I did not go........

Does upcoming ones count? Rolling Stones, Flaming Lips, Sublime With Rome at Summerfest, couldn't ask for a better line-up. Cousin's wedding that weekend. I will most definitely regret that one later.

Smashing Pumpkins in the early days. I regret passing that one up.

Missing High Voltage 2010 pained me for a while.

King Crimson in 2008, I had a ticket for the Tennessee gig but I'd just driven 11 hours from Connecticut to Cincinnati that day moving to a new job & the idea of another 4 hour drive to Nashville was just too much.
RIO Festival in 2010 featuring Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Gong, Rational Diet & Art Bears Songbook. I went for the first time the next year & haven't missed one since. I never did get the chance to see any of those bands.

Way back when, a friend went to see Cream in a pub supported by Jimi Hendrix for the princely sum of 3 shillings (15 pence). I only knew about that after the event.
I could have had tickets for, Led Zeppelin at the Albert Hall in 1970 but decided I couldn't be bothered!

Missed Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock, Jack Dejonette, and regretted it ever since.

I had tickets for Opeth/Pain of Salvation in Berlin on December 2nd 2011. It was Opeths Heritage tour and I really wanted to see a growl-free Opeth concert...  plus I liked the idea of a double concert with PoS. I became severly ill a week before it (with hospital etc.) and could not go.
