Yes the Beatles are one because of the enormous &  lasting influence they had on music & culture.

  Hendrix  is another, he shot guitar playing light years ahead of where it was at the time.His stage persona live was simply jaw dropping.

  The Doors maybe another,perhaps due to Jim Morrison's unpredictable live performances.You never knew what was going to happen next.Anything was possible, you couldn't take your eyes off him.

  Those would be my picks.I had the good fortune to have seen them all live at the time,Hendrix twice.

Little Feat

I had tix to see them *many* years ago, and the show got canceled. Since then, Lowell George has passed away, so I don't know if that exactly fits the criteria of "no longer performing", but it's who I'd choose. Such a good-time band.

Well, if you mean they are not performing because they are dead than I would have to say the original line up of the Grateful Dead.

How can I not pick the Beatles- very easily as most of their music does not appeal to me. I would have liked to see Pink Floyd at anytime during their time together.

Edit for Time to dance - That was a one off show and they have no other plans to do any other shows.

Perry Farrel recently shot down any plans of a larger scale reunion with the 4 original members

"There's as much likelihood of that happening as there being commercial space flights,"

Yeah, got to be the Beatles for me too.

If you can factor in people that you have already seen though, I would love to have gotten the chance to see Elliott Smith do another acoustic show before he died, or with a band on his last record (From a Basement on the Hill, not New Moon although those songs are great, but just to make the distinction). I'd love to see that somewhere like the Fonda in Los Angeles, or really I would have just loved to see him play Largo. I hear that was really like him playing on his turf. He was so good with an acoustic in a small setting.

**********

Oh man, Goorge Bosh reminded me of a good one. It still burns me a little that I never got to see Fugazi. I would have really loved to see them tour on the Argument particularly. At least I got to see a little of the Evens and Ian MacKaye do a Q&A, but I hear Fugazi was really great live.

Well, ofcourse half the bands that are half dead. Like, on VH1, I had wanted to see The Who play again. Voila.

But the bands that are 100% alive, I'd love to see Something Corporate again. Andrew said they'd get back together. But years have passed, and it's not gonna happen. I pretty much know it. Maybe - just maybe they'd do a charity concert or something of the sorts, but I think the closest you can get to it now is Jacks Mannequin or William Tell or etc.

For those who don't know,
