I think it's safe to say that the Superjam concept has now taken off, and that being asked to participate is now becoming a privilege for artists. So what of the future? Who do we see curating future installments? Ben Folds was a great limited participant this year, but I'd love to see him get his own. Zac Brown? Chris Thile? St. Vincent? Who would you like to see?

The one Paul Peck mentioned during his Reddit AMA:
Have Mick Jones and Paul Simonon lead a Clash Superjam. Tons of artists are directly or indirectly influenced by the band. It would be an amazing singalong.

Jeff Tweedy Erykah Badu Nels Cline David Byrne Warren Haynes Victor Wooten Trey Anastasio Annie Clark John McCauley Robert Randolph Marcus Mumford Pharrell
Edit: had to add Siggy's great suggestion to my list.
Nigel Hall! He killed the hip hop superjam last year and it was obvious that he was the real leader of that bunch. Lets see the majic when he is the official curator
I doubt he would come by himself just for a superjam and I don't really see RHCP coming back so soon, but if we're talking big names, a Flea curated superjam would be pretty boss. I know he's really into Afrobeat/tribal sounding stuff and it would be cool to check out a really percussion and bass heavy superjam.
I'd also like to see another hip hop/r&b superjam which I imagine Pharrell would do quite nicely.
I remember in the reddit AMA Paul said something on the lines of a Neil Young Superjam on the What as the dream jam. Neil knows EVERYBODY and would no doubt be the Superjam to end them all

Pretty Lights w/ full band ripping through some hip hop classics with guests Nile Rodgers and ?uestlove Jim James doing whatever he wants Nas Robert Randolph John Mayer
Absolutely, positively yes! I still wonder about the rumored David Byrne Superjam back in 2009. Was it true and just didn't pan out? What would/could it have been?
Fuck, lightnin' has just struck my brain. Give me David Byrne and Jim James fer next years Superjam!
I feel like Avicii could do just as well as Skrillex, I'm not sure why but I have faith. Also, they need a disco/funky themed superjam, so anything with people like Niles Rodgers or any other living disco legends and I'd be there. Finally, I was trying to think of someone in hip-hop who has worked with enough people and is a large enough name where they could almost bring in anybody and it'd work out. Maybe a producer like Dr. Dre? I'm probably not thinking hard enough.
