I would say Zep and Stones from the classic era. I saw McCartney a few times so close enough for Beatles. Saw Floyd but wish Roger was there.
A couple more were Supertramp and previously mentioned Genesis.

Was listening to the Cars last night thinking, damn, I bet that would've been a great show in the early 80s. |

Faithful to the record ( the way I like bands to do ) recreations , good musicianship and singing , not very dynamic performers . |

I like Gabriel solo, but given the choice of that or him with Genesis, I'd take the latter every time. |

I saw the Ramones, but in 1990. Woulda like to have seen them earlier and in a smaller venue. AC/DC always looked like fun....David Bowie, too. |

Strange dude, but he seemed like he would have been worth seeing. |

I'd like to have seen some iteration of Jethro Tull. I missed The Ramones and Lou Reed, both gameday decisions. I scalped my Nirvana tickets in front of the Aragon the night of the show, I sat in on harmonica with my friend's blues band at some dive bar on Diversey. I really don't regret that one. |
