Nope, the other way around, sadly. The tribute are not bad.
I’ve never seen the Killers, despite them being right in the millennial breadbasket.

It was Weiland a couple of years after they all got back together. Wasn't aware of his issues, or the fact that he passed away, but that would explain a lot.

Nope, seen a few times, Splendour in the Grass when I was at uni (cant remember if it was 07 or 08) and again in Brisbane and Sydney a few years later.

Ladyhawke looks the odd (wo)man out to me.
Going with Freddie and The Dreamers. Always had the hint of the novelty act about them.

Nope. Saw them at a local pub and stood alongside Freddie in the loo. Only a little bloke.

Norwood's on Fire
I saw him with Velvet Revolver in 05 and he was in tip top form. A couple of my mates went to see VR a few years later and said he stank the place out.
I've seen videos of the later years when he was back in STP and it ain't pretty, Sad stuff.

It's the taking part that counts I guess. I saw Elbow once, but only as a support act, I think to Muse, circa '03.
Not REM for me, saw them play at Old Trafford in 05, supported by a couple of bands I've also seen in their own right (Idlewild and Feeder). Was a solid gig.
The Music is the one on my list I haven't seen, think they would have been good live though. Got into them off the back of some friends of mine going to a gig of theirs and hyping them up.

I'm gonna guess Dire Straits? I ruled out Alice Cooper immediately, because I remember you making a post about the superb Nita Strauss.
My selection:
Black Sabbath
Soundgarden
System of a Down
The White Stripes
Radiohead
Rammstein

Grace Jones the obvious shout, but probably too obvious. Going with very Maiden as they're the other mild outlier.
Reckon I must have about 40 albums by bands on your list.
Going with Dinosaur jr on the grounds they're least likely to play huge enormodomes or stadiums, so statistically they've probably been seen by the fewest punters.
