I think doing a concert version featuring rock artists would be a kickass idea. Who would you put in? I'd do:

Jesus:
Judas:
Pilate: David Bowie (heh)
Mary: Amy Winehouse
Peter:
Ciaphes: Tom Waits
Annes:
Harod: Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips
Simon: Mika

Roger Daltrey as Jesus... if his voice wasn't completely shot now.

[Patrick]

Daltrey was actually Judasin a recording played on the BBC at one point.

And Freddy Mercury as Jesus and no, I don't care that he's dead.

Mick Jagger as Pilate

David Lee Roth as Herod

[Pannic]

Yeah. Freddie Mercury as Jesus, Daltrey as Judas. The vocals fit it better that way.

And I just saw a Youtube video with audio of him singing Heaven on their Minds. That was awesome.

[Salome]

I second Bowie as pilate..since he played Pilate in Last Temptation he would fit in perfectly.

[aranelcarnilino]

I loved David Bowie in Last Temptation (even though I didn't really care for the movie as a whole). That would just be a very fun reprise of his role... in song!

[Patrick]

Daltrey. Judas. Heaven on their Minds.

I honestly think Gillan should be given a second shot at Jesus.

[jcstar]

He was offered the Broadway and film versions. I think he did a screen test for the film and almost got it until Ted entered.

I remember how much ya'll hate Sebastian, but if his voice wasn't shot..I'd have to say him as the "Rock n Roll Jesus".

I'm not a newbie...newbie, I just changed providers, and I forgot my passwords!

I know he's hated here, and I cringed at some of his songs, but LOVED others... "Poor Jerusalem" was great! and I did enjoy his "Temple" thing.

[lorenzo]

Oh, and the little dude that won Finnish Idol, Ari something, he'd be GREAT!!!!!!!!!!

[jcstar]

Adam speaks the truth.

I probably would have like Bach had he sung the role like he sang "18 and Life."

But he didn't. He sang the role like he was telling us JCS fans "Look at me, I'm Sabastian Bach! Solo wonder." He didn't understand that he isn't the reason why we (the fans) go to see JCS.

He didn't understrand that he wasn't the star of the show. JCS is the star of the show.
