The sentence that correctly uses a comma to join an independent and dependent clause is, "Although I had been looking forward to the concert, I was just too tired to go."

We can see extreme contrast in this sentence, which is why the comma is correct. The contrast is that I was excited to go to the concert, but I didn't go because I was tired.
