Inspired by some of the comments in Wally's Oasis thread, I thought it would pass some time to look at the bands the TWTD massive have seen the most. Maybe go for a top 3?
For me it's Paul Weller at the top with 40+ gigs since 92. Sadly never saw The Jam or Style Council.
2nd is The Who 30+ times, though only since 89, so sadly no Keith Moon era gigs.
Not sure about third. Possibly Cast or maybe even The Bootleg Beatles!
I guess we should also include if we ever saw Oasis, so for me that is 4 times, but all back in the day. |  |

By choice, Robbie Williams (born in the 80s I was the right age for boyband mania)
Not by choice the darkness, they've popped up as support acts 3 or 4 times. I am not a fan at all but seem to see them everywhere!
I would have loved to have seen meatloaf when he was in his prime |
Meatloaf was brilliant in his prime. Amazing energy for such a big man.
First saw him at the N.E.C. early 1980's......I think. |  | | |

From The Jam 7 or 8 times
Bad Manners 4 times
Saxon and Neville Staple 3 times
Copious amounts of bands once or twice
Live music is wonderful and I do like being in a boozer and seeing a local band |  | | |

that's some strong cider if it's making you see dr. dre, ice cube and co in stowmarket! |
Until this I read all this and thought NWA played Stowmarket, and I thought Suffolk had changed for the better culturally since I left |  |

HMHB & Wedding Present are probably top of my lists too.
I must have seen them both well over 30 times. I saw HMHB in Leeds last month & have tickets for Nottingham, London & Holmfirth for next year & am seeing the boy Gedge in Leicester next month.
The Fall are up there too, but obviously they aren’t adding to the tally
Back in the day I saw Carter circa 15/20 times and still catch up with Jimbob & Les in their current bands most years. |
The Addicts 30 times
Interpol 7
Strokes 6
Oasis 6
Artic Monkeys 5
The Who 3
The Cure and David Bowie were the best gigs I ever attended. |  | | |

Agree with that. Saw Mr Meat and co I think at Hammersmith about that time - Bat out of Hell n all that. It was excellent. I would say that like Queen who I saw in I think 1980, it was a bit of a stage show as opposed to a tear up, but in its own way none the worse for that. [Post edited 27 Sep 9:24]

My first ever gig was Bowie in 1983. Nit a bad way to start.
Only saw them once but also in the same year, the Police. They were bloody good for a three piece. |  |

Wow, great way to start. Missed out on DB but did see Police. Enjoyed it.
My first ever gig was Thin Lizzy. I don’t think my ears ever recovered. God it was loud! | | | |

The best T-shirt I saw at festivals this summer was one with a picture of Sting, Copeland and Summers with F**k NWA underneath.
Probably bought it at the Stowmarket gig. |  |

I saw Tin Machine, obviously, because of David Bowie and they gave out badges that said
''F**k you I love Tin Machine''
I've still got it ! | | | |

Reminds me of the interviewer who asked Lou Reed if he still listened to 'Metal Machine Music' and got a terse 'Yes, I use it to get to sleep'... | |

This might just be a hunch on my part but do you go to Cropredy every year ? |
I went from 1989 to 2008. |  |

Talking about artists I should have seen, the Police and Dire Straits came to Leeds Polytechnic within a week or so of each in the autumn of 1978 when they were largely unknown. Within a matter of months, both had made it big, even in the States. [Post edited 27 Sep 16:46]
