Me and Gord Downie in the middle of a drug-bust.
That would truly be inspiring.

I think LoftyPines has a good answer. I'll try to mix it up a bit, without including the Hip.

How about Eddie Vedder singing, Neil Peart on drums, John Entwistle on bass, with Neil Young and Jack White on guitars. I know, you think I'm crazy for putting White on guitar but that would be one fuzzed out, rocking grunge guitar duo with Peart and Entwistle filling in on the other end.

Or...maybe John Fogarty singing, Matt Cameron on drums, Jeff Beck and Slash on guitars, Flea on bass.

Good choice with GNR. Guns N Roses was my band back in the early 90's, loved Appetite, and When Use Your Illusions came out I was Fixated (Matt Sorum in place of Adler). Coma, Estranged and the rest, both albums ruled my world, now the Hip speak to me, but GNR was a part of who I was for a while.

Axl had the swim move dance move perfected! Slash with the cool hat and killer guitar riffs. Duff with the burnt out rock star look, izzy in his own world, and I don't know much about the drummer. The fact that Slash was left off of Rolling Stone's top 100 guitar players just proves the absurdity of the magazine.

To do this without including The Hip eh...

Drums: John Bonham
Bass: Les Claypool
Guitar: Eric Clapton
Guitar/Vocals: Lenny Kravitz

I know it seems like a weird combination, but Clapton & Kravitz played All Along the Watchtower a few years ago at a VH1 show and it was mind blowing.

This is a difficult question due to which muscial type you want to have the super group- For an example

hard rock I would go with a couple eazy ones- Audio Slave or Temple of the Dog
Alt Country would be Uncle Tupelo.

But just a list to see what would come out would be
Bass- Mark Sandman (Morphine)
Guitar- Warren Haynes (Gov' Mule)
Drums- Brain (Primus)
Singer- Johnny Cash
Horns- Flea

I think that's the first time I've ever seen Uncle Tupelo mentioned on these boards. I freakin' LOVE that band. I never knew who they were at first until I started listening to Wilco. I remember during an interview to promote ARA '97, Gord was talking about why they picked Wilco to be on the tour, and he talked about their history and how they formed out of the ashes of another great band called Uncle Tupelo (Jay Farrar went off to form Son Volt.) After that I was curious, so I picked up one of their discs, "Anodyne" and gave them a listen. Recently they released a 21-song collection called "Uncle Tupelo 89-93: An Anthology", which is pretty much a wet dream come true for fans of Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar as it features not only studio tracks, but alternate takes and a couple of live tracks as well.
