I'm sure we've all got that one artists we'd like to hear Devin work with or work with again. So who is it?
I would soil myself if Devin did anything at all with buckethead. Buckethead is a bit of a goofball and his composing may not as impressive as someone like Steve Vai... but the two would definately come up with some really cool stuff.
One song I would love to hear Devin sing on with the Bucket is Binge and Grab. It was originally a Deli Creeps song but he recorded as an instrumental on the album Giant Robot if I'm remembering correctly.
Heres a youtube video of the original. I really think Devin could bring this song up a notch. Any chance of this one happening Mr. Townsend?... ahh probly not. But a guy can dream eh?

It's always been a wet dream of mine to see Dev do a collaboration with either Simen Hestnaes (formerly of Dimmu Borgir/Arcturus) or Jeff Martin (ex-The Tea Party). Those two guys rank in my top 5 musicians along with Devin, and to have either of them do some work with Devin would be an absolute dream come true for me.
Both of those guys have completely different vocal styles, but I think they'd mesh well with Devin's vocals.

Cool suggestions. Hmmm. I wonder if Devin will get some time to let us nerdy fans in on who he wants to work with.

Dual vocals with a higher pitched guy. Or a lower pitched girl with a really rich voice. I'd cry

I know he has already collaborated with Ginger, from the Wildhearts, but I would love if him and King's X did something together. I still want a Devin, King's X, and Wildhearts show.

That Binge and Grab idea is great.
A Townsend / LaBrie collab would be cool.
