The artists I wished I saw live

I am lucky in the sense that I saw a lot my preferred artists live, such as Radiohead or Archive.

Still, there are artists and bands that I never got a chance to see, and will forever regret it:

• Pink Floyd: the only time I could potentially have seen them was for The Division Bell Tour circa 1994, but I was too young back then
• The Cranberries: I certainly could have seen them before they disbanded in 2018 because of Dolores' death - but never did
• Oasis: I am curious to see how they performed live
  • ... interestingly, Oasis just announced that they would be reuniting in 2025, for a few gigs in the UK

There are artists I saw live but that won't tour anymore:

• The Prodigy: not sure I won't see them live again, since they started touring after Flint's death - but this will likely be different. I saw them live in Nimes Arena in 2009 and what a blast it was!
  • If you're picky, you could tell me that Prodigy stills tours, albeit just not with the same lineup.
• Jean-Jacques Goldman (French artist): probably one of the very first gigs I attended, in 1994
