Copy this list. Leave in the bands you've seen perform live. Delete the ones you haven't and add new ones that you have seen until you reach 25. An asterisk means the previous person had it on their list. Two asterisks means the last two people who did this before you had that band on their list:


1. The Frames
2. Green Day
3. Rancid
4. The White Stripes
5. The Flaming Lips
6. The Offspring
7. The Safes
8. Weezer
9. Tori Amos**
10. Fiona Apple**
11. The Cardigans*
12. The Foo Fighters
13. Queens of the Stone Age
14. Nine Inch Nails

Deleting the ones I haven't seen would take off all but one.

Add new ones till I reach 25? There aren't 24 bands that I have seen! (Perhaps Eric Lindell counts, but I'll bet Richie Havens and Ruthie Foster don't count as "bands")

They're musicians. They count. :)

A lot of these are people I have yet to see, but would like to. So yeah, they qualify.
