Most of them, really. I live in the sticks, even by scandinavian standards. My closest concert venue that books big artists is a 6 hour drive away.

So whenever I’m down there for work at the head office, I see who are performing around the same time so I get the travel expense covered. And when Dream Theater and Devin Townsend performed on the same stage on the same night, I made sure to find some reason to travel to the office.

And I’ve invited some coworkers to a meeting in April next year. Agenda: “doesn’t matter. We’ll find something”. The reason: Probably my last chance to see Rush perform.

Penn and Teller! They aren’t going to be around forever, so I’d really like to see them live sometime soon. But there’s no way I would ever travel anywhere close to the USA :/

I did manage to see Propagandhi back in 2009ish, and it was maybe the best damn show I’ve ever been to.

Then they didn’t come back for over a decade. And that show got canceled because the frontman got covid the night before.

Then they were supposed to pay a festival near here, but they announced right before that they were never going to tour America again because of all the fascist bullshit.

In Australia, we’re lucky to get anyone foreign visiting our shores. Pearl Jam did come out last year, but nosebleed tickets were >$360 each, so that was a hard “nope”.

But there’s almost any price that my wife and I would pay to see Angels and Airwaves.

David Bowie cause you know he’s dead.

Jimi Hendrix

I was really hyped to see Teenage Wrist last year, but the “headliner” of their tour - a far less notable act, in my opinion - got sick or something and the whole tour got cancelled. Shame. I’d have paid double to just see a longer set of Teenage Wrist without the headliner.

I wanted to see Ghost one of the few times they were coming to my city, but it just didn’t work out. I was going to buy tickets to Rammstein, but then covid happened, the singer caught covid, and they cancelled the tour. I was going to go to RATM at all costs for their reunion, and then Zach broke his leg.

there’s a Mongolian black death metal band out there that I thought would be really cool to see; they actually went on a world tour and played about 10 miles from me (in the US) but I didn’t go.

I should have gone. :(

Rammstein, Scooter, Magdalena Bay, Poppy, Red Vox are what immediately come to mind.

Some bucket list artists have shown up here. I did get to see Doug Stanhope, Days N’ Daze, In This Moment, and Jinjer. Edit: Slipknot too!

Alberta does get some attention but there’s a lot of big gaps in certain genres. Rammstein did play here, I just fucking found out after the fact of course 😢. Back in 2011.

No band in particular, but I’d love to go back to Sheffield for Tramlines sometime … though I know it’s changed and commercialised since I last went :-/

I’m from south america, so my chances are already slim, but I’ve been lucky to have watched The Living Tombstone and My Chemical Romace live, which are some of my favorite bands.

Most of the solo artists I like are very niche, or not big enough for a worldwide tour, so I know it’s gona take years for me to be able to see Ren, Rio Romeo, Will Wood or Femtanyl live.

Riverside. Truckfighters. Witchcraft. Porcupine tree.

They dont come to the US because we have awful music taste.

Majority of bands. In my old state of VT, no big band would ever waste time there and I was limited as to how far I could travel when they reach other states like Mass or New York.

And where I currently live, yeah there will sometimes be some bands/groups I wouldn’t mind seeing, but I’m still locked out from seeing most of them.

Literally any of them. In the southeast it feels like there’s D.C. and Atlanta, but nobody really stops in between. Can’t blame them though.
