Later...With Jools Holland: Your perfect line up

[The Lemming Stomper]

Amazingly I got drawn out of the hat for 2 tickets to see Later on 14th May...

This got me thinking about who will be on and whether it'll be great or rubbish...

What would your ideal line up be if there were 5 acts, 1 of each of the following

a) Big name
b) Uk
c) American
d) world
e) up & coming

Mine would be

Kraftwerk
Bow Wow Wow
Pearl Jam
Little Roy
Man Without Machines

Good thread. Clearly we can go back in time therefore:-

1. Thin Lizzy ( from the "Live and Dangerous" era).
2. Dr Feelgood (original line up)
3. Drive-by Truckers
4. Los Lobos
5. Jake Bugg

Unashamedly guitar centric and probably quite loud.

Lucky you at coming out of the hat for tickets. Although I can understand why he irritates many, I am in much admiration of Mr H.

Any, from any era?

The Beatles
Joy Division
Kraftwerk
The Associates
Blondie
