    Hammersmith Odeon on a Saturday night. Three bands/acts maximum, half hour for the first support, one hour for the second and a two hour slot for the headliners. As this is fantasy you can pick anyone alive or dead from any era.

    What bands would you have and in what order?

    So many to choose from but for those we will never see again I'd go for the following;

    1) Bo Diddley
    2) Credence Clearwater Revival*
    3) Jimi Hendrix

    * I have seen John Fogerty solo but would liked to have seen CCR in their prime
