I Think we're all veteran rockers here. Collectively, I think we've seen damn near every act still out there that's worth seeing. Individually, who would you like to see in concert that you haven't seen already. Looking for active artists. Could call this the "Concert bucket list".
For me, I would still like to someday see:
Gamma Ray Status Quo Not sure if either of these acts even play US dates, but I would like to check them out if they do.
Marty Stuart Love his TV show, probably be a fun concert.
Shooter Jennings. I'm a little afraid that he'll disappoint me, but I'm willing to take the chance.
Triumph I think they do a few shows a year since they buried the hatchet a few years ago. If not, nevermind.
Queen with Whomever I shoulda gone to the Queen with Paul Rodgers show several years ago, but I'll bet they'll be just as good with Adam Lambert or anyone with a good voice.
Dwight Yoakam Believe it or not, I have never seen him in concert. He never seems to get to close to the Philadelphia area.
Stratovarius Another Euro-Metal band that I was once heavily into. Not so much into them anymore, but it might be nostalgic for me to see them.
Believe it or not, I think I've seen everyone else that I care to see. Not really into the live experience like I was when I was younger so it's a pretty high bar to hurdle for me to want to see ANYBODY live, let alone someone I've never seen before. I've never seen ZZ Top or Aerosmith, but I really don't care to. I like them both well enough, just not enough to pay for high priced tickets, high priced parking and deal with the crowds.
How about you?

John Mellencamp Santana Danzig Supertramp Opeth Testament The Who Witchcraft Cracker Manchester Orchestra The Scorpions (how I’ve missed them in the last 30 years, I don’t know) Fleetwood Mac- I saw them in the early to mid-90s with that wacky lineup…but that doesn’t count. Dire Straits if they ever got back together It sucks I missed Genesis on the last tour. It looks like that was my last shot.

I saw that line up. I count it. They played all the hits and, other than totally butchering "The Chain", I thought they played 'em pretty good.

Didn't realize they were touring again. The guitar player (I forget her name..Jan...something) died a year or so ago and she was the lone original member and owned the name. I guess someone from the heyday pounced on the Vixen name after she died.

I guess someone from the heyday pounced on the Vixen name after she died. It's the original line but just with a replacement guitar player Yeah, I looked them up on Wikipedia. Apparently Jan was planning a reunion of the Classic lineup for 2013, but was diagnosed with cancer in Jan 2013. She postponed the reunion until she recovered, but she never recovered. Instead, she died last October. The remaining originals felt they should carry on in her honor. Of course, that's bullshit. In reality, i'm pretty sure that they were excited to run Vixen their own way. Still, it's nice to see Vixen touring again, good motives or not. They were an underrated band.
