Brain Candy for a Winter's Day

With apparently no "Thought for the Day" from Peter yet, I was doing a bit of daydreaming..

In our Folklife group, for the summer festival, we do a lovely little thing called a Band Scramble. All interested parties put their name in a hat, names are drawn, and people are placed in new groups.

The new groups have one hour to find a name, and some material enough to fill a 15 minute set in front of the other groups.

My submission is this: What is your Band Scramble? Which musicians would you like to hear together? What would they be called? And what would you like to hear them do?

Ummm...maybe Mike Nesmith on pedal steel, Linda Rondstat and Jerry Jeff Walker harmony, Marty Stuart mandolin doing NGDB's "Rippling Waters"...followed by Croce's "Out of Tennessee" and then an a capella "God's own Jukebox"

Hmmm...howabout "Celtax"? It would be Dougie MacLean, Arty McGlynn, Dan Ar Braz, Soig Siberil, Chris Newman and David Allison. They could do:
The Morning Dew
The Quarrelsome Piper
Captain Pugwash
Hasberry Howard
The Holms O' Ire
Dargai
Colonel Fraser
And "Our Time Will Arise."
