What major bands have you seen?

I know this is age-relative, regarding what age you were attending bands (probably teens and 20s) and what was available.

I've tried to remember what I could...

B-52's (twice, once very small venue)
Santana (three times, once third row)
Talking Heads (twice)
Rolling Stones
Eric Clapton
Bonnie Raitt
Lyle Lovett
The Fabulous Thunderbirds
Andrew Bird (not major yet, but should be)
Doobie Brothers
B.B. King
Taj Mahal (small venue)
Moody Blues (twice, once small venue and excellent seats, second with a press pass)
Ray Charles (excellent seats)
David Bowie (sucky seats though)
Journey (I hate to admit it, but it was my first show)
Ziggy Marley (appearing WITH the B-52's - hot show!)
Joan Osbourne
Johnny Winter Band

I'm sure there's more, which I will add more on edit as my memory improves.

Absolute favorite is Santana, with B-52's a close second.

On edit:
Also Little Feat, but without Lowell George, so I don't know if that counts.

On second edit:
Laurie Anderson - very good, if different.
Weird how much stuff you forget (or maybe it's understandable).
And I think I saw Muddy Waters, but I don't know for sure. I have seen a variety of Blues artists I don't have listed here, e.g.: Charlie Musselwhite.
