The Perfect Band

Rob The Badger · 21 Sep 2003, 23:10

Hey, here's a thing:
If you could create your own supergroup, musically speaking, who'd be in it?
We'll set up a basic group structure.

Lead guitar:
Bass guitar:
Drums:
Vocals:
Other:

Here's mine to get us started:

Lead guitar: John Fruiscante (R.H.C.P.)
Bass guitar: Andy Rourke (The Smiths)
Drums:Tommy Lee (Motley Crue et al)
Vocals:Morrissey (The Smiths/Solo)
Other:Beck (With assorted musical gizmo's).

And what would they be called?

The Black Dice.

Common, have ago, a laugh and stuff. . .

Wild_Honey · 21 Sep 2003, 23:31

Hmmmm interesting one, Eyeore!

Needs some thinking... Well, I think mine would be

Lead guitar: Brian May

Bass guitar: George Harrison

Drums: Roger Taylor

Vocals: Hmmm... if I go for the schmaltzy bit, I'd have Chris de Burgh and Candice Night as lead singers in it.

And else hmmm... I'd be interested in Meat and Pink together on stage!

Other: Would have Tarja Turunen and Robbie Williams for background.

I'd call the band either "Blood Red Roses" or "Hell's winged devils"

And I admit not being very imaginative here...

White of High · 21 Sep 2003, 23:51

Some months (or years) ago I started a topic about it... without replies.
Well, my dream band:

Guitars: Brian May, Gary Moore, Slash & Luca Turilli
Bass: George Harrison
Piano: Steve Margoshes
Drums: Kenny Aronoff & Phil Collins
Background Vocals: the girl from Rhapsody, Celine Dion, Cher, Phil Collins, Brian May, Gary Moore, Klaus Meine & Jon Anderson
Synth: Giorgio Moroder & Vangelis
Sax: ???

and London Symphony Orchestra

Male lead: Freddie Mercury
Female lead: Gwen Stefani

Lead guitar: Brian May
Another lead guitar: Jimi Hendrix
Bass guitar: Flea (Red Hot Chilli Peppers)
