You know, the more I learn about Darryl Hall (whose voice I adore) and the more I see him live, the more I don't need him there.

I think Cyndi Lauper's voice has been underestimated by the public for decades. She is really a belter in an American Idol sort of way. I know musicians respect her. I would expect she could return.

Folks I would love to see: Justin, Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Gwen Stefani, Ne-Yo, Mariah, Joss Stone, Bruce, Melissa Etheridge, Sheryl Crow, Adam Levine (are they up for anything — he may not be there), Jamie Foxx will be there.

The last one had some comedians. I would look for a few folks who can carry a tune like Adam Sandler or Wayne Brady.

But you're right, GG. This will be the hottest ticket around. And they can dub in Brother Ray (a must) and MJ.

I would like to see a changing of the guard from the classic rock crowd to new folks. Rob Thomas can sing a lead as well as Darryl Hall. Beyonce is our Diana Ross. It should be great.

I imagine that Ingram is probably not doing much these days, but I'd love to see him on it too. Ok, they have to get Brother Ray in there too.

And Steveland and Hall are musts too. For me, I want Huey, but I imagine he and Cyndi are off the radar a bit. They have to bring the Boss back to hit that hook. And Steveland and Hall are musts too.
