Who would be in your dream band? Page 2

Quote: Kenneth @ April 22 2009, 12:47 AM BST

No, there is never any violence, let alone night-vision nonsense. I said they will take me to nice parties. When not at parties, I'll just be "relaxing" with a couple of members of the band, while the others sing Pixies/Bowie songs and invent cigarettes that don't cause cancer. When I'm busy working, they go off and fight crime, generally helping the oppressed to take on corrupt politicians, bureaucrats and police.

Nice try Kenneth, trying to throw people off the scent, but I know what you're really like, 'Wolf Creek? That's a type of Shiraz, isn't it?'

I'm only giving you a hard time because your concept for a band was better then mine plus my bisexual quadruplet gymnastic cheerleaders aboard my Floating Brothel Fortress aren't very good at fighting crime or Bowie covers.

Anyways, I'm in danger of taking this thread off topic, so here's my ultimate band -

singer - Stephen Hawkins
lead guitar - Tony Blair
bass guitar - Michael J Fox
drummer - Abu Hamzar
backing dancer - Heather Mills with light up disco leg

Debbie Harry on vocals
Suzie Quatro on Bass
Joan jett on guitar
Denise Dufort on drums.

You didn't say what type of dream.

1 singer: The lead singer of the now defunct band Grade Kyle Bishop. Anything with that guy finally making music again would rock!
1 bass player: Whoever it is who slaps base for the Beastie Boys.
1 guitarist: Lead Guitarist for the now defunct band Refused
1 drummer: Dave Grohl
1 person of your choice to do what ever: DJ Shadow on the wheels of steel.

Besides Graul I think everyone of those guys I mentioned are free. They should hook up and make my music dream come true.

David Bowie
Phil Oakley
Pete Doherty
Syd Barret
Sid Vicious

Put them in anywhere you want doing what they want, I don't care!

Singer: Frank Spencer
Guitar: Bill Bailey
Bass: Gary Oldman
Drums: Derren "Look ma, no sticks" Brown
Other: Alan Sugar as 'Bez'

Lead Vocal : Norman Stanley Fletcher
1st Guitar : Uncle Albert
2nd Guitar : Basil Fawlty
Bass Guitar: Nick Swainey
Drums: Compo
Keyboards: Dave Best

You could have Elvis Hitler, on Vocals, from the Psychobilly/Punk band of the same name.

Mrs Mills and Mel Tormé

Not sure it could get any better than the original Who lineup of Townshend, Daltrey, Entwistle and Moon.

Yep, one of the all time great front men, guitar players, drummers and bass players. There's no weak link, best all round line up ever!

Vox - Tom Waits/Ben E King
Guitar - Mick Ronson/Ginger
Bass - DeeDee Ramone
Drums - Animal the Muppet
Keys - Hugh Laurie

Oooh, they'd come a close 2nd for me. Just missing out to Plant, Page, Jones and Bonham.

Ray Davies - guitar, vox
McCartney - bass, backing vox
Lennon - lead vox, guitar
Numan - Drum samples and keyboard
Billy Corgan - just to cause aggro

And Micheal Jackson holding his arms out crucifixion style while Jarvis Cocker bums him in retaliation for the misery he's inflicted. Which of the two caused said misery is up to you.

Some great choices so far. It's quite a difficult question actually.

Conor Oberst - guitar, lead vocals (and songwriter)
Noel Gallagher - guitar
Mani - bass guitar
Zak Starkey - drums (incredible drummer)
Laura Marling - backing vocals

I'd replace Gallagher with John Squire in that line up.
