Ryan Adams

39 metal bands and a three hour show from him. Perfect.

    He would play with EVERY band! He would be all over the arcades! He would love the lazy river! (probably, I have no idea his views on swimming).

- A Bjork lineup
  
  would be incredibly diverse. The possibility of seeing unknown 'world music' (sorry) soloists and groups alongside say Plaid, LFO, Matmos, Antony and the Johnsons, Rahzel etc would be great. Plus very few groups are likely to say no to her.
  
  I second Brian Eno. Andrew WK has great taste but not really the stature of a curator position. They should get 2-3 record labels to curate. I won't bother writing a list.

  Although it has mindblowing potenial would be an avant garde-ATP, therefore boring to 99.99 % of the planet. As a member of the 0.01 % of the planet that would probably take up temporary residence on the streets of London during the Sunn O)))/ATP I say "Fuck The World"- or at least 99.99% percent of it.

  - If you took up temporary residence in London you'd miss ATP though.

  - They were definitely down to do one.
    
    Think that might have been the one that got cancelled. I too might have completely made that up, but they were def down to do one many years ago.
    
    JimmyHuntspill @Mike_Diver | 8 Oct '09, 15:42 | X | ^ This | Reply
- They tried that in 2004
  
  but the event was cancelled due to "unexpected cost rises and scheduling complications that would have required the festival virtually to sell out before enough funds were generated to stage the RE~TG festival in the manner orginally intended by Throbbing Gristle". It didn't sell out.
  
  Throbbing Gristle eventually played the Nightmare Before Christmas festival later that year (curated by the Chapman brothers)

It's going to have to be someone ridiculously good/unexpected otherwise every single person will go to the pavement one (probably).

Outside vote for Aphex Twin - he's been around a lot lately and would provide the crowd pull...
