OK, I'll break two of the three ties ...
1. Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
3. The Byrds
I cannot break tie number two because as someone who is unfamiliar with either band, I feel that I am simply not qualified to break that tie.
Here's a list of two Baker's Dozens of them.
Sadly, some of my faves are no longer with us, but I'm gonna include them anyway.
Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band
Van Morrison
Jackson Browne
Neil Young
The Rolling Stones
The Beatles
Mark Knopfler / Dire Straits
Warren Zevon
Tom Waits
The National
Scars on 45
Sting / The Police
Linda Ronstadt
Rickie Lee Jones
Billy Joel
Steely Dan
The Byrds
The Cure
Stevie Nicks / Fleetwood Mac
Everything But the Girl
Kate Bush
Patti Smith
U2
The Corrs
Creedence Clearwater Revival
John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band
You're welcome.
I hope you'll get to see some of the rarer ones I listed.
Actually, I hope that you'll get to watch them all, as I like them a lot.
I was a student at The George Washington University in the Foggy Bottom section of Washington, DC from the fall of 1969 until I graduated in 1973.
While I agree with a lot of what you say, I was quite surprised at your complaint that the buildings were tall.
No, they most definitely are not.
By Federal law, no building in our nation's capital can be taller than the dome of the Capitol building.
As someone who grew up in New York City, that is not tall at all.
But be that as it may, I must say that DC was a great place to go to college.
I was 17 when I started and 21 when I graduated.
Freshman year began with anti-war moratoriums and senior year ended with Watergate hearings.
Definitely a time I'll never forget.
11. Groucho Marx (1890) - Kristen Stewart (1990)
