And, I'm sorry to say, I don't know who Mike Ness is; but I'm going to find out! :) I like Fripp, but I’m not really a die-hard fan of his.

There would certainly be a massive amount of blues in the music they come up with. I haven't really paid much attention to Kotzen so I'm not sure what he sounds like nowadays, but if he is able to lay back and bit when necessary then I think they could pull it off quite nicely. Thanks for your suggestion! Interesting combo, David. There would certainly be a massive amount of blues in the music they come up with.

If you look up Mr. Big's last tour in Japan, I think you'll find his playing to be a nice mix of rock/blues and a tad surprising. His solo work is solid, but his singing can become a little annoying, ... pair his playing ability and blues style with John Meyer's voice and composition and I think the sum of these parts would bring about a wonder array of music with a great big yummy chunk of bluesy riffs and solos.
