Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready has revealed that the band would like to collaborate with Jack White.

Speaking to reporters about Pearl Jam’s forthcoming appearance at the Bonnaroo Festival, which will also feature White’s side-project The Raconteurs, McCready said he would “love” to have the guitarist join the band onstage.

”I just, I think he's just a phenomenal guitar player and I'd love to see him play up close,” McCready said.

“I've seen The White Stripes in Europe, but it was kind of far away.

"But I'd love to have him up there and jam because he's got a killer voice and he's a great lead player too. So that would be exciting to me."

Other acts scheduled to appear at the festival – which runs from June 12th-15th in Tennessee – include Kanye West and Death Cab For Cutie.
