Let's say you stumble upon some sort of magic that allows you to build out your dream musical lineup of artists both living in dead. What show are you putting together? It can be anything from a simple opening act and headliner, all the way out to a multi-day music festival.

Has to be Bonnaroo because the farm is magical.
For headliners I’ll choose a current act a reunion and an act of the past.
Paul McCartney Oasis Beastie Boys
Pre Headliners:
My Morning Jacket LCD SoundSystem Wu Tang
Edit: you can toss in Queen and The Killers and they can take my bank account for a ticket

Friday afternoon would be chill with bands like Crosby, Stills & Nash, Dylan, Mumford & Sons, Bread, Jefferson Airplane, Fleetwood Mac, Alanis, and Simon & Garfunkel.
Friday evening would see guys like Springsteen, Green Day, with maybe an appearance by Prince.
Friday night would be "An Evening With the Beatles"
Saturday morning would have Enya getting everyone going in a chill way. Then after lunch AC/DC with Bon Scott, Tool, Alice In Chains. Finally the final night would be Iron Maiden closing it out.

Sure You'd have David Gilmore, Robert Plant, James Hetfield, Freddie Mercury, Jonathan Davis, Kurt Cobain, Eddie Vedder - but a list like this would be incomplete without the artistry of Fred Durst to make it whole. The pantheon of great singers right there.

I'd open at noon with some cool jazz from Fagen, Becker, Purdie, Carlton, Porcaro Bros, Baxter, McDonald, Schmidt
I'd put Lynnyrd Skynyrd in the mid day, don't change a thing, they are tight
Followed by Nancy and Ann Wilson with any backup band, don't need the Fisher drama
Midday is Clapton, Baker, Windwood, Grech, Bruce, Allman, Mason for a blues set
Pick it back up with the Police, followed by Rush, ending with Jimmy, Robert, John Paul and John
Not sure how to fit NIN, Nirvana, or Prince in there

Pretty good lineup. If I were you, I'd tell Styx, "You can play at my festival. But I hear even a hint of Mr. Roboto, and I'll unplug you guys faster than you can say 'Babe was a great song!'"

Actually, I'm scratching Styx and replacing them with Toto.

I'd probably do an evolution of blues/ rock concert over two days.
For the blues day I would have Charlie Patton, Robert Johnson, Elmore James, Son House, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, BB King, Buddy Guy, T Bone Walker, Freddie King ,Albert King, Otis Rush, Junior Kimbrough, Gary Clark Jr. and Christone Kingfish Ingram.
My rock day would be rock artists with those blues players making an appearance as they cover their songs or songs that influenced them. I'd have Zep, Floyd, Clapton (with Cream and Blind Faith), Allman Brothers, Fleetwood Mac, Stones, Beatles, Aerosmith, Eagles, Prince, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, Jack White, Stapleton, and Black Keys.

If you are a fan of Nirvana, check out this video of Post Malone doing a tribute show of their songs. I am not a fan of Post Malone's type of music, but this was friggin' awesome.
Nirvana is not an easy band to cover, but these guys crushed it.

He has a good voice and clearly enunciates better than Cobain...I know that was the intent
Travis Barker has been through the ladies

I was thinking about Tom Petty yesterday and should definitely have included him.
And then let's add a 'semi-mellow' day with:
Dave Mason
Boz Scaggs
Steely Dan
Atlanta Rythym Section
Neil Young
Doobie Brothers
