So...if you could make your own band with your favorite musicians what would it look like? ( I am suggesting leaving the mmj boys out of this...or some of us would just pick them. ) Lets try to keep it one selection per band also.
So here goes...
Todd Lewis ( Toadies ) - Vocals
Chris Martin ( Coldplay ) - Piano
Jeordie White ( A Perfect Circle )- Bass
Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine )- Guitar
Chris Carabba ( Dashboard Confessional )- Acoustic Guitar
Carter Beauford ( Dave Matthews Band )- Drums
Sara Watkins ( Nickel Creek )- Violin
...this band probably wouldnt need a violin, but if they were to ever have one then she would be my pick. It was so hard leaving Josh Homme ( Queens of the stone age ) and Maynard out of the vocals position. I'm not saying this band would make great music...but these are my favorites in their spots.
this is an interesting idea. thanks.
hmmm
Ruyter Suys - Guitar (Nashville Pussy)
Dean Ween - Guitar (Ween)
Burtch - Vocals (Grandaddy)
Nathan Followill - Drums (Kings of Leon)
Jeff Tweedy - Bass (Uncle Tupelo,Wilco)
again, this would prob. change next week
oh yah, i forgot to mention..everytime i see one of these shit 'nu metal' bands that have a D.J that obviously does nothing, I wonder how pissed the lyric/music writers get once they get famous and actually have to pay their expendable gimmick..ie: linkin park,incubus. its funny really.
it must be the europe/north american thing cuz anytime someone posts a good thread on here it takes three friggin days for anyone to respond
Ginger Baker - drums
Jack Bruce - bass
Eric Clapton - guitar
or
drums - patrick
guitar - jerry garcia
bass - bloke from DMB
guitar/vocals - Ginger (Wildhearts)
keyboards - Jools Holland
Didn't read the original post properly, so instead of Patrick I'd have John Bonham
I agree on the DJ-thing, I must say.
My all-star band would be, ehm, let me think... These on instruments:
John Cale - Violin
Erik de Jong (Spinvis) - Guitar, loops
Rahzel - Human bass
Britney Spears - Woodblock
Liam Gallagher - Tambourine
And a choir of the following:
Tom Waits
Stef Kamil Carlens (Zita Swoon)
Michael Stipe (R.E.M.)
Patti Smith
Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam)
Connor Oberst (Bright Eyes)
Captain Beefheart
James Brown
Aretha Franklin
Morrissey
And then I'd like to hear them do a cover of Leonard Cohen's "Famous blue raincoat". Mmmmm..... :)
Oh, I'd need someone on trumpet as well, but I can't think of anyone...
