Any others you can think of that would sound good if they were ever to be done?

I'll set the ball rolling with:

Dream Theater covering John Cage's 4' 33" - It would be the best thing they ever did.
Certainly not the musicians of ProgDay covering I Know What I Like because I've heard it, and I know what I don't like!

Man were they ever drunk on that. You get a crazy Italian or two and and a bunch of loaded proggers....and the atmosphere all conspired and perspired for a lousy song...well said...Echolyn at Prog Day slogged through some amusing Sabbath covers too.

John Galgano at the Rosfest party also performed a regrettable version of side 1 of Misplaced Childhood, then redeemed himself at the Proghouse with the Giant and Genesis songs

I can't tell you what I want to hear but I can tell you my favorite take is Mike Keneally doing "Time Table" off of the Katrina record. And the worst is that horrible ELP tribute record...

Marillion covering a Britney Spears song.

No wait, that's been done.
