There are several versions of this. But for today, and with people that would actually sound good together:

Vocals/Rhythm Guitar: Robin Zander
Lead Guitar: Robert Quine
Bass/Vocals: Nick Lowe
Drums: Dave Kling
Keyboards: Steve Nieve

I was going to put in the dead half of The Who, because both are clearly the greatest to ever play their respective instruments, but then I realized that there probably isn't a better rock vocalist than Daltrey and Townshend is at least a Top 20 all-time guitarist (if not Top 10), so I guess mine has to be all four members of The Who.

Peter Hook would supply the melodic anchor to the music whilst McCabe and Reed would pound your ears with feedback, all the while Jarvis sleazes it up a little.

Using only Scottish musicians this band might be interesting to listen to:

Vocals: Alex Harvey (Sensational Alex Harvey Band)
Guitar: John McGeoch (Siouxsie & The Banshees, Magazine etc)
Bass: Alan Gorrie (Average White Band)
Drums: Ronnie Torrance (Josef K)

There would certainly be musical tension.

There's jail, and then there's a line up of ex-Dolls, Faces, STones, Band and E-Strett Band members.

I don't know if I can ever sleep again after having seen these names in a line-up together.

You sir, I detest.
