Everyone will get on here and say bard bard bard blah blah blah.
I played a bard on live from '00 til just a couple of years ago. Bard is a lot of fun, can solo, makes groups better, etc....
But saying all of that, for the 4 man group you are wanting to run, go Ranger.
Rangers can solo, and will be able to fear kite animals come velious, and they do a lot more DPS than a bard.
You're going for druid healer instead of cleric or shaman, this means weaker heals and regen. The monk can tank sure, but that Pally is going to give much better threat generation and let you the Ranger go balls to the wall without pulling threat. You've got slows with the Chanter so that will help if you go Monk tank, but will drain more mana if the chanter is doing debuffs, hastes, slows, and charming...... probably not as much of a big deal at higher levels, but still.
Pally, Druid, Enchanter, Ranger sounds pretty good to me.
Unless of course you go Monk and let your friend tank with Pally......... that sounds even better
