Hilary Hahn

Helene Grimaud

Stolen Babies

Diablo Swing Orchestra

Mike Oldfield

Klaus Schulze

Vangelis

(that's in no particular order)

Nate: good list -- I've seen: Dresden Dolls, Opeth, Epica, and Sigur Ros off that list, and they were all excellent live. I missed Metric by (holds fingers together less than a centimeter apart) that much.

For me, I would love to see Tom Waits, Neil Young (not sure if these guys even tour anymore - with advanced notice, I would even consider flying to see the concert).

Neil Young still tours, I missed his concert at Massey Hall this past year but I've been to one of his past concerts. Definitely go if you ever have the chance.

My list:

Jesse Cook

Emmylou Harris

Robert Plant & Alison Krauss (will be off the list as of July 14 :dance:)

The Roots, who after so much effort I will still miss tomorrow, just like last time. -.- I guess it's not that bad since it'll be like 95 degrees and I'd probably die.

NIN (who I have tickets to for!)

Boris

NATSUMEN

Pharoah Sanders

There are more but those are the main ones.

I've found I dont enjoy rock/metal/etc in concert settings because of the excess of clipping and stupid-loud volume.

Someday I'd like to see jazz performed in an intimate setting without microphones; just the instruments themselves. I'm not up to speed on current jazz artists, but someday I'll get around to doing that, I think. Obviously it would probably not be anyone famous though. :-\

I have heard metal done well...once. Local band, Garden of Shadows (who are several years defunct at this point). Some of the nicest metal on record, as well.
Yesterday never happened
Remember 06/07/08!!!1!

Eros Ramazzotti, but there is no chance he would ever come to Chicago and there is little chance I would do Roma, but even smaller chance of him playing a show there while i would be there...

I think he did Florida or Cali once, but thats the spanish Eros, I want to see the Italian Eros so i could sing along to songs i have no idea what the words mean..

Jacintha would be a good live performence also, in the right building that is. does she even tour?

Depeche Mode, and New order would be on my list..

Neil Diamond always looked like a fun show, the hard part is finding a chick my age and fun enough to just rock out with his songs.

others would be

Prince

artists that are dead..

Rat Pack in Vegas,

Barry White in his day

Marvin Gaye

Dule Ellington

Alberta hunter

real Zeppelin

Metallica with Mustaine

Ray Charles..
