Ok, stupid thread perhaps; maybe bad taste even.

But if you could choose half a dozen or so artists / bands who are no more, to play at Pilton in June, who would it be, and on which stages?


I'd go for:


Hendrix - Pyramid

Stevie Ray Vaughan - The Park

Joe Strummer & Mescaleros - Avalon

Bob Marley - Jazz World

Rory Gallagher - Peel Stage

Mozart - The Glade

I'd have Charlie Parker myself, or maybe Mingus with a big band.

And +1 on the John Lee Hooker idea; first half of the set just classics, second half drag out all the guests he had on the The Healer and play it start to finish.

I was thinking of more-true-to-the-name-of-the-stage artists, despite there being very few strictly jazz performers on that stage anyway, but yeah, I would rather see a few of those artists than MD.

Also what's your display picture of? Pretty creepy.
