I’d be up for a Jack White setlist of Zeppelin covers, he’s done some before and added his unique style.

Doesn’t Topographic Oceans alone take longer than 5 days to get through, or maybe it just seems like it.

Talking Heads, no contest.

I've seen Byrne many times (10+) and I've also seen Tom Tom Club three times, but I didn't see TH.

Ahh, I thought as much. Is a reunion ever a possibility?

I'd be very surprised if it was considering how much they allegedly hate each other

Unlikely, I think. There was a bit of a fall-out over song credits I think - tho they did share a stage when TH were inducted into RnR Hall of Fame so they can be in the same room together - but mostly because Byrne is someone who seems to look forwards and not backwards. 

But you never know I guess. There's a book coming out in 2 months from Chris Frantz so it'll be interesting to see what that says and whether it sparks anything.
edit: I know Frantz (so Tina too, I guess) would do it if the others would.

I'd have to go with Kings of Leon doing Paul Simon covers on the Park Stage.

[maelzoid]

Phish doing Joe's Garage in full on WH would be my ultimate, but I'd settle for Metallica doing Motorhead early on the Other, which is not as wild as it might sound.

[ian the worm]

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard doing The Doors in the Rabbit Hole.

That's clever! Jim Morrison known as the Lizard King and all that....

[maelzoid]

And now I'm thinking on it...

NIИ covering Bowie

Manics covering G'N'R

[Havors]

Foals doing Kings of Leon - Pyramid (so we can see what it would be like if Kings of Leon enjoyed themselves on stage)

I didn't know that was exactly what I wanted until you suggested it. 

I'll push my luck and say an Arcade Fire/LCD supergroup
