Fiona Apple (maybe)
Marilyn Manson (in a bigger role than in Lynch's film)
Robert Plant
...there are a couple more.  I'll think of them later.

But that was considered a cameo at best.

I could see someone like Ben Folds being the perfect quirky, best friend character.

..Please don't say that....Putting manson in a film is like Having ..a cameo w/ vanilla ice(as soon as he's onscreen its kistch and a cheap ploy).....
that was the only bad thing in/about  Lost Highway..was when Lynch(WHy?)  had manson ..and..... :roll: Twiggy ..in his film....that was phucking lame....(this iscoming from a huge lynch fan also.).....

oh well........  .. .no ones perfect.......
Title: regarding suggestion on ben folds...

yeh he would be good as a quirky best friend... what about a quirky best friend (or older brother) to jason lee's leading man... not enough nice things are said about lee, he is well overdue for a romantic lead...

Ben Folds, Coldplay, Default, Bare Naked Ladies, DMB.....too bland and generic for me. Does anyone else realize that Dave Mathews is one of the worst all time singers? Gawd, his whining voice makes the dogs and cats cry. Ben Folds had a really bad performance on SNL....the dude couldn't bring it live, vocally. I felt embarrassed for him.

Uh, Coldplay puts on a hella good show.  Didn't see Ben Folds live, but totally agree with you on DMB.  Talented musicians, just too bad their lead sucks ASS.
