So, imagine you've got a major birthday coming up and you had no constraints of the cash front...

Who would you get to play - alive, not dead - and where?

For me, I want -

1. Vintage Trouble
2. Jeff Lang
3. #1 and #2 jamming audience requests with the Stones

...and I want it to happen on New Year's Eve at my dead grandparent's house on the South Coast of Sydney. Sun, surf and good rock'n'roll.

What's yours? Why? Post vids!

Z.

Awesome thread!

I would get Red Hot Chili Peppers to play and join them on stage and play a few songs together

For the location, this would be great :

For me .... I would have Pantera (since it's a fantasy, I can wish for Dime to be here with us), Audioslave, Incubus and in order to have a REAL birthday bash - a supergroup that has Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Jeff Beck and James Brown and Steve Lukather and Guthrie Govan and Mike Portnoy and as a bass player, I think that Stu Hamm would fit the bill.

Jam party

On guitar Andy Timmons, Guthrie Govan & Paul Gilbert
On drums Marco Minneman, Thomas Lang & Mike Portnoy
On bass Bryan Beller, Victor Wooten & Billy Sheehan

But why stop there?
On guitar again: Richie Kotzen, Steve Lukather, Neil Zaza, Justin Derrico, Joe Satriani, John Petrucci, Steve Vai, Greg Howe, Jeff Beck, Vinnie Moore, Marco Sfogli, Andy Wood, Mr. Fastfinger, Kiko Loureiro & Andy James

I'll think that'll do for one great evening

Plus i'll play 30000000 times better than I do at the moment so I'll be able to jam with these great guys
