I can't believe I read it all. I took notes. Here are performers someone wished they'd seen that I have seen: The Beatles, Fats Domino, Bob Dylan. Mississippi John Hurt, Pete Seeger, Sonny Terry and Brownie Magee, Ramblin' Jack Elliot, Earl Scruggs, Arlo Guthrie, Jean Richie, Seamus Kennedy, Marty Robbins, Tish Hinojosa, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Sons of the Pioneers, B.B. King, and Joe Ely.

Here are performers from the thread that I have never seen but would like to (except the dead ones, of course, that would just be icky). Stephane Grappelli, Jimi Hendrix, Django Reinhardt, Bob Marley, Rolling Stones, Jimmie Rodgers, Woody Guthrie (and Woody and Cisco), Bill Monroe, Doc Watson, Steve Goodman, Muddy Waters, Johnny Cash, Booker T & the MGs, Janis Joplin, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, Townes Van Zandt, Leadbelly, Lefty Frizzell, Dave Van Ronk, Jefferson Airplane, Carter Family, and Josh White.

I was surprised not to see Willie and Waylon, Bob Wills, Jerry Jeff Walker or Merle Haggard since there were other country music performers on the list. I also expected to see some more recent N American performers like the Duhks, Mammals, Old Crow Medicine Show, The Greencards, Rodrigo e Gabriela, or Uncle Earl.
