If you had to choose three bands for the ultimate bill at a concert who would they be

PUNK ROCK SHOW
Opening band - Nausea or AusRotten
Second band - Dead Kennedys (original lineup)
Headliner - The Clash

SHAKE DAT ASS SHOW
Opening band - Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
Second band - The Specials
Headliner - Stray Cats

METAL SHOW
Opening band - Sepultura
Second band - Slayer
Headliner - Motorhead
 
Ok, perfect evening would be this:

It starts off at 8 p.m. with BoarRAB of Canada, just chillin' and relaxin' to some great IDM tunes. No beer yet, that would ruin the experience. I just want to feel like I'm in ****ing space (hmm, maybe some drugs?). At around midnight, Tom Waits will do a three hour performance. I'll probably be in awe for three hours straight. Then, at around 3 a.m. Guided by Voices, performing a 5 hour set until eight in the morning, and I will shouting along with every song.

Then I can die happy (I am probably dead by then, but who cares, it was the most awesome night of my life)
 
Well I'll do my dream shows

The pretentious not so indie kid in me dream show

The National
Sufjan Stevens
The Hold Steady

The incredibly pretentious hipster kid in me show that I would die to see

Madeline Ava
Paul Baribeau
Ghost Mice

The ultimate show:

Laura Stevenson and the Cans
The Mountain Goats
Tegan and Sara
 
A concert that would make me cry if I missed it:
The original Don Caballero lineup (Ian on guitar)
The original Battles lineup (Tyondai on vocals)
And So I Watch You From Afar

A concert that would make me commit suicide if I missed it:
The original Don Cab lineup performing What Burns Never Returns
BOC performing Geogaddi
Battles playing all of their material live

A concert that I'd commit mass murder to get tickets and would even explode a kitten to get into:
BOC playing all of their material (even the old tunes!)
Aphex Twin playing all of his new, unreleased material, and then playing stuff from SAW 85-92
Battles performing all of their Mirrored material and all of their new material with Tyondai

The above concert would probably last three days, but it would be amazing.

That would be hard on DJ Ashba, though... To play all of Sixx AM's discog (which would be The Heroin Diaries, mostly (entirely?)) and then nine songs with Guns 'N Roses... would be amazing, anyways.

I'm still trying to figure out who the first band would be...
