No secret, that my favorite is Scorpions.
60th anniversary in 2025, if...
I will see them this year in London (UK was left out for years) and most likely they will retire.
Singer's (75) health is declining, but still hits the notes, just sounds weaker.
They were active throughout their entire career, not like Rolling Stones.

Which old (40+ years) bands do you like?
Possibly ones are still active or active again.
Would you still pay to see them live?
I'm a fan of rock, blues and metal, but you choose any genre really. |

I saw Suzi Q just before Christmas, she's still got it.
Tom Jones a couple of years ago, it was to all intent and purpose, a rock show. He was fantastic.
I saw Scorpions years ago, it was a fairly Spinal Tap show for them. |

"I’m hoping that Aerosmith will schedule a UK leg of their tour after cancelling their 2020 dates.
And I’m off to see Mr Big in a couple of months "

Eric Martin's regular tour with Avantasia helped to put Mr.Big back to the map.
He's a good singer.  |

Oh my!! … I remember seeing Scorpions back in 1980 … it was an awesome gig!
I recently saw Midge Ure at his ‘70th birthday gig’ … he still sounded fab … and yes he could still hit the high note on Vienna!
There are some however that really should give it up! … and rest on their laurels now!

I actually liked Queen with Paul Rodgers, but never heard this other guy. |

I saw Aerosmith supported by Mr Big in 1994 in Paris. Then again the same tour but supported by Extreme.
I swear I'm not old. |

Extreme will support Scorpions, so I need to check them out before.
I know 1 song from them.

"In the past few years I've seen Uriah Heep and Wishbone Ash

I'd love to see Uriah Heep.
They're still on tour

I will see them at some point.
They are the "underrated" little brother of Deep Purple.
