The following is a list of 10 bands/muscians. I have seen nine of them perform live in concert. Guess who (whom?) I haven't seen perform live in concert.
Avett Brothers
Elvis Costello
Fleetwood Mac
Lady Gaga
Bebel Gilberto
Aimee Mann
Metallica
Steve Miller
Punch Brothers
Suzanne Vega
The next poster should guess from my list of bands, who I haven't seen live in concert. Then write a list of 10 musicians or bands where you've seen only 9 from that list. The next person will guess which one he/she believes that the above poster hasn't seen ... yada yada.
Didn't think the structure to this game through. Saw Metallica back in 91 or 92 in Austin, TX when I was stationed at Fort Hood, TX. We literally were in the second or last row of the arena.
I'm going to say BABYMETAL because its a genre not an individual band.
I never gotten around to see Fleetwood Mac. It's a tad too late now as they players aren't in their best vocal shape and I'm not willing to pay an insane premium for the cheapest seats.

10 bands, 9 i've actually seen, 1 i listened to while standing near a loading bay at the old Maple Leaf Gardens
1. The Roches
2. Pink Floyd
3. OMD
4. Tom Waits
5. Roger Waters
6. The McGarrigles
7. K.D. Lang
8. The Pretenders
9. Simple Minds
10. Stevie Ray Vaughn
FYI, "What's the first concert you ever saw?" is often a secret question for when people forget their passwords. No need to stop the game, but maybe don't reveal who you saw first.

I noticed this game has gotten really popular on FB. Unfortunately I have to struggle to come up with 9 acts I've seen in concert.
I say you haven't seen Fish - because it's spelled Phish.
I suspected that as well.

@djjd62,
I'll say OMD is the odd one out because they've only got one good single. And you should have been listening to Otis Redding in any piece of architecture with the word bay in it.
David Bowie
The Smiths
The Cure
Tom Waits (as well)
Paul Weller
Laurie Anderson
Psychedelic Furs
Hawkwind
Jesus and Mary chain
The Pixies
I really like Laurie Anderson, mostly because I really really like William Burroughs and he was on a few of her songs. I've not seen The Jesus and Mary chain. I've lost count of the amount of times I've seen Hawkwind and will be seeing them again with the kids on 20th May.
