    Since I selected Other, I have to say Karen Carpenter and if composers are included then Jerry Goldsmith or Michael Kamen.

      I voted for IZ, and Freddie Mercury would've been my second choice.

      That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

        The Beatles - not all dead but still, "other".
        I'm still here. Are you?

          I'd always wanted to see MJ in concert but wasn't willing to fight he crowds.

            Johnny Cash. I think his concert would be fun and chill, plus I can sing along.

              Mozart, if he's like as portrayed in the movie.

                I heard Mark Hamill did very well in the Broadway adaptation. I would have liked to see that.

                  Lennon without the Beatles would be a waste of a fantasy concert. I'm with Mel--I want the Beatles so I vote OTHER. Similarly, Mercury without Queen? What would be the point? It'd be like those Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (another sham) inductions where only one guy in the band shows up.

                  Second choice: Jimi Hendrix. Third: Sex Pistols.

                        I voted "other". I had tickets for Buddy Holly, Richie Valens & The Big Bopper concert that should have happened the night after the plane crash. That's the concert I wish could happen.

                          Hope you still got those tickets.
                          Or that you sold them for a reasonable memento.
                          Can't touch them today.
                          Maybe better if you still have them!

                          We lost so much that night. More than we lost this June! Yet because of those men, we gained a generation different from any other.

                          Sometimes a cause need martyrs. I hate to think of them that way, and I'm sure Rock would Be if they had lived, but I know that their deaths inspired a generation of rockers, and a generation beyond that, and that, and that.

                          Rock on.

                          Buddy Holley should be enshrined along with Nickolai Copernicus, Lewis & Clarke, Thom Edison, the Wright Brothers, and so many others who forged a brave path where others were afraid to step.

                          Oh my, he is. Forever.

                              I saw Iz so many many many times just magic, I loved his banter to the audience and humor. He was great fun to talk with and joke after the shows.

                              I would like to see Jerry Garcia again. What an amazing show he put on at the Shell in I think 1992 I'll have to dig in my memory bank. It's a little fuzzy about that night!

                              I loved seeing Johnny Cash as well. Saw him solo and with the Highwaymen.
                              Great shows!
