I've just been listening to youtube videos of great guitar masters like Glen Campbell etc and it spawned the thought," I wonder if there is a giant open theatre in heaven where concerts are held to entertain the angels/spirits. " Some truly great artists have passed in recent times. 

Who are your top 2 or 3 musicians/performers that have left this mortal coil? 

From the ' country side ' I list Roy Clark, Jerry Reed  , and Glen .

Jerry Garcia. Even though it was 25 years ago, I miss him quite frequently. I wish I could have seen more shows with him, and I miss the shows and music he didn't make.

More recently, John Prine (sadly, due to covid)

Not thinking big enough. Put that concert on a star about to nova for the visual effects at the appropriate moment. Use the converted sound of a pulsar as a beat. Also you play the instruments while riding a space dragon. Gotta have space dragons.

That is the kind of thing done when the performer doesn't really have much talent . 😜

That shouldn’t be an issue as everyone is perfect so no need to stick with simplicity to prove superiority.

Sounds like you needed to go to a Grateful Dead show on acid. In the middle of the 2nd set of every show (well, '78 or so on), they would play a completely improvised "song" called Space. I'm pretty sure I've ridden some space dragons.

Acid is a cheat. I am looking forward to when I can live these kinds of experiences with my mind fully functioning. That will be a beautiful form of power.

Definitely the first thing they asked Neil Peart to do once he arrived this past January (2020) was to play a drum solo:

This year? Tony Rice, Tony Allen and Mister Satan.

edit: I forgot about McCoy Tyner. Sigh. In some ways it was a terrible year.
