DarlingDiana said: Red Hot Chili Peppers open the show with "Around The World". Then they play "Get On Top", "Suck My Kiss" with a kick ass guitar solo played by John Frusciante which goes for about 8 minutes. Then George Clinton comes on stage to do "Give It Away" with them. Then Chili Peppers leave and George Clinton is joined by Parliament. They do "Tear The Roof Off The Mother", "Unfucky UFO", "Handcuffs" and "Flashlight". Then Prince joins them onstage to perform "Erotic City". Parliament leave and Prince is joined on stage by his lovesexy band. They perform "DMSR" for like 15 minutes and then they do "Bambi", "The Beautiful Ones", "The Marrykind/If Eye Was The Man In Your Life" and "A Million Days". Then Michael Jackson comes on stage and him and Prince do "Bad". The the Jacksons join Michael and they do "Can You Feel It", "Dancing Machine", "Shake Your Body", "Heartbreak Hotel", "Lovely One", "Walk Right Now", "Don't Stop" and "Rock With You". Then Michael says "goodnight" as if it was the end of the show. Then about 5 minutes later, Chad Smith comes out and does a kick ass drum solo. Then Flea comes out and bust out on the bass. Frusciante comes out and starts shreding his guitar. Then Kiedis comes out and the bust starts playing "Storm In A Teacup", "Torture Me", "Hump De Bump", "By The Way", "Scar Tissue", "Californication" and they finish with "Under The Bridge". Then the show truly ends.
That would be a perfect concert. No "Show You the Way to Go"?  "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

This is kind of a tough one buuut at gunpoint I might pick
For a Large Venue/Arena Sly & the Family stone The Who Parliament/Funkadelic Duke Ellington James Brown For a Smaller Club Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie (with whatever other musicians they chose although Bud Powell or Monk on piano would be ideal, as would either Kenny Clarke or Max Roach on drums) Curtis Mayfield Big Joe Turner John Coltrane (either with the classic quartet or joining in on Miles Davis' classic quintet) Isley Brothers | |

[Edited 8/19/06 15:17pm] Interesting picks you got there, 100MPH Thanx bro ! There might be a few lucky orgers here from the UK , who have witnessed concerts from Kleeer , Mtume & Slave .... all around the years 1984 to 1986 . Lucky bastads  .... 
I've read an amazing concert-review of Slave's opening-concert from the UK-tour in 1984 . Above the stage of the venue was a big SLAVE-logo litten-up in blue-laserlight . The show opened with an aeroplane-sounding noise ( like in We Come To Blow Ya Mind ( 1982 ) ) . A blazing horn-section fired-up the intro with Stellar Fungk and much more classics passed along that night . I actually have a runners-up list ... 5 choices are TOO TUFF 4 me 
 
( shucks shukcs ... 2 hard ... Dayton , Ozone , Bobby Nunn , Ebonee Webb , Jakky Boy & The Bad Bunch , New Horizons , Aurra , BB&Q Band , Change , High Fashion , etc )

I could never narrow it to just one dream ~ but for starters ~
Bjork Tori PJ Harvey with Imogen Heap opening and TRICKY as guest artist!!!!! That would be insane. This one would HAVE to be on Olympic Island in Toronto in summer. Then, I'd switch to stage two for Joni Mitchell circa late 60's early 70's Bob Dylan (on a good day) Nick Drake Van Morrison and maybe early Eric Clapton (acoustic) in the old Cellar coffee house in Port Huron, Michigan where I first heard Joni play ~ early Fall would be perfect for this. I'd then have to have a bit of the ethereal, deeply spiritual sounds of Dead Can Dance Cocteau Twins Sigur Ros David Sylvian and hmmmm ~ have to fill this one in later just a start ~ fun to dream but way too many favourites! Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife. --Kahlil Gibran | |

Playing for 4 hours. And then afterward: loads of fun.    Yeah! Just to hear that As Long As I Have You/Fresh Garbage 20 minute jam. Those concerts rocked. | |

Great thread idea! Here's mine in no order:
Prince and the Revolution James Brown The Beatles Duke Ellington Metallica I thought about including the Beach Boys but i don't know how well they sounded live. |

In no particular order, these are the artists I'd include in my "dream concert". It would be perfect if all of these artists performed at a small private club instead of a large venue.
Prince Bob Dylan The Beatles Sam Cooke & Marvin Gaye George Michael Carlos Santana | |
