Amusing fantasy band line ups

Dave Grohl - Vocals (Foo Fighters)
Synyster Gates- Lead Guitar (avenged sevenfold)
Brad Delson or maybe John Fruscinate - Rythm Guitar (linkin park) (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
Flea - Bass (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
Travis Barker - Drums (Blink 182)
 
How about :-

Johnny Rotten (lead vocals)
Elton John (grand piano)
Liberace (synths)
Jaco Pastorius (bass of course)
Bill Clinton (Sax - yes he really does play)
Tony Blair (guitar - yes he really does play)
Keith Moon (drums)
Yehudi Menuin (electric violin)
Freddie Mercury, Aretha Franklin, Michael Bolton (backing vocals)

What the hell would they play? And indeed what the hell would they sound like?
 
Axl Rose - vocals
Tommy Lee - Drums
Jaco - bass
Trey Spruance - guitar

noone would survive the first jam. they'd be called "the flakes" in accordance with their present state (or, in jaco's case, the state his musical career was in when he died)
