There was a meme about &quot;what are you top 10 in-person concerts&quot; going around on BlueSky the other day. I felt a bit left out, since I could only think of one I&#39;d been to... because somebody I know liked the group. So! Why don&#39;t we do: What group would you really like to see perform live? I&#39;ll start: Steam Powered Giraffe. If you haven&#39;t heard of them, they&#39;re these steampunk vaudeville mime robots that... well... Oh, just watch one of their music videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN4aFwGy2ck

@rr4idic@mastodon.online I have a terrible record for buying tickets and the gig being cancelled (REM, Nirvana, Metallica), and a couple of accidental free ones (Nazareth, BMX Bandits). The one I want to see but can't? Queen, with Freddie. The one I could? Iron Maiden, with Bruce.

@rr4idic@mastodon.online For some weird reason, I still haven't managed to see Gojira. Also, I would finally like to see The Netherland Bach society and the Bachstiftung, as well as Philippe Herreweghes troupe.

@rr4idic@mastodon.online How about none, I prefer to listen to recordings? Theres something weird with my ears which makes anything close to normal live volume sound like it's being played through broken speakers. But ⚙️🦒 would otherwise be on that list 😀
