On March 9, 1980, The Clash headlined the Orpheum Theatre in Boston. Which got me thinking: are they THE band I'd time-travel back to see?
Before long, I'd complied a short list of 10 legendary rock acts that we will never again see perform live. Now I leave it to you to choose your favorite. Even after making my list, I think I'm still sticking with The Clash. I'd vote Ramones, but I got to see their last-ever Boston show, so bucket list item checked off.
Scroll through the full list, then cast your vote below.
Beastie Boys
The Clash
Led Zeppelin
Nirvana
Pink Floyd
Queen
Ramones
Rush
Soundgarden
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
