I don't think we'll ever see KISS and R.E.M. anywhere near each other. Actually, they're both huge corporate rock bands, so it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they showed up together at some festival or on some TV show.

But I think you missed the point of my original post.

Def Leppard/Dumb Earth/Blind Melon (not quite a double bill, but what the hey...)
