As I sit here and watch a video of a band I am starting to reminisce about how I enjoyed seeing them over 20 years ago. It got me thinking, is there a time that you really don't want to see a band anymore as they can not live up to the expectations you have for them, thinking they are today what they were then? Is there a performer that you regret not seeing when you had the opportunity and now they only play casinos and state fairs? Is there a performer that you think should just call it a day?
In 1992 I was fortunate to see The Cure. I have seen recent pictures of Robert Smith. He looks like Susan Boyle now. While I enjoy their music, there is no way I could go see them now. In 1982 I was fortunate to see the B52s. I had the hots for Kate Pierson. Now that they are in their 70s . . . no, I do not want to see them again. In 2002 I was fortunate to see the Pet Shop Boys. It was kinda rare for them to tour the US. I am impressed that Neil Tenant's voice has not lost that much. I think it is close to the end for them. In 1990 I was fortunate to see Ottmar Liebert open for Basia. It was an incredible exhibit of talent. I was fortunate to see him a couple of years ago. Fortunately for him, his skill is the guitar. He does not sing so he can keep going and going :) When I lived in South Florida, I always wanted to see Rodney Dangerfield. He lived there and would play Sunrise Musical Theater every New Years Eve. Every year, near that time, I would go . . . Hmm, I can go out to a sex club and fuck or go see Rodney . . . I'll see Rodney next year. I regret never seeing him. Before covid, Mel Brooks was doing a show at the Wynn once a year. Every year I'd say, "I'll catch the next one." I regret not seeing him. I was never a huge Rush fan. I liked the skillset. I had numerous opportunities to see them and would defer it to a later date. I regret not seeing them play. I have a friend who plays the trombone and would be part of the local band that Frank Sinatra would use to play at Sunrise Musical Theater. He would offer me tickets to go to the show. I had no desire. Now, I think it would have been cool to see Sinatra once. So who do you think should hang it up? Who do you regret not seeing?
