Oldest band you've ever seen

[Alice S. Fuzzybutt]

<p>Now that The Rolling Stones are on tour, it got me thinking about older acts I've seen. I saw The Who in 1989 at Giants Stadium (awesome!). I saw the Grateful Dead (not so awesome) in the early '90s. I've also seen Todd Rundgren a few times.</p><p>What's the &quot;oldest&quot; band you've ever seen?</p>

<p>I saw the Pixies when they reunited last year...just saw Paul Westerberg a few weeks ago...</p><p>Oh yeah, I was unfortunate enough to see the Sex Pistols when they reunited in the 90's.</p><p>I think that's the oldest band I've ever seen live.</p>

<p>I can't top your Who or Dead, but I saw the KISS reunion/greatest hits/re-inventing of Alive II tour a few years ago.</p>

Oldest band for me is probably the Grateful Dead several times from '84-90 or '91. Oldest solo was Jerry Lee Lewis back in the early '80s.

I saw The Dead last year (what's left of 'em), I've also seen Steve Miller Band, The Allman Brothers Band, George Thorogood and the aformentioned Rolling Stones.

<p>I'm surprised the Stones are touring. Mick is 61. So is Keith. How he&nbsp;survived is beyond me!</p><p>I heard they gave a great show. More power to them. But to be honest, I don't want my rock idols touring in their 60s. </p><p>I remember my dad when he was 60-- wearing a v-neck white t-shirt, cut off shorts, black supp hose, and flip flops. And that WAS when my idols were in their prime!</p><p>No thanks! ::shudders::</p>

[Freakshow]

The Moody Blues, Eric Claption, Yes (the union tour--so it was Everybody), and ZZ Top. All around 1990 or 1991.

I saw Iggy Pop, Blondie, The Speicals, and The English Beat at HFStivals in the early to mid 90s.

Probably more, but that's all I can think right now.

[Death Metal Moe]

<p>I don't know why I bother to talk music with you people becaue no one knows what I'm saying, but for me it was SUFFOCATION.&nbsp; </p><p>They are one of the originators of the New York Death Metal sound, and they started a following of loyal fans and imitators.</p><p>We played a show with them and it was great.&nbsp; I got to walk up to the drummer and let him know he was an inspiration for me to play brutal music.&nbsp; Nice guy, great drummer.&nbsp; Mike Smith.</p><p>But honestly, in their mid 30's they're not even close to joking about being old musicians with the Stones still touring.&nbsp; They're just older Death Metal musicians.</p>
