I was thinking about this all day. No idea why but here goes. If you could
create your ultimate band who would be in it. And you get one choice of
an individual you want to die so they never get the chance.

Simple rules, musicians and singer can be living or dead. Here is mine

Electric guitars: Clapton, Nils Lofgren, James Reyne, BB King, Steve Oliver,
Coco Montoya, Corey Stevens, Prince (great performer, underrated guitarist)

Acoustic guitars: Dominic Miller (Sting's guitarist)

Sax. Eugene Grove (Euge Groove)

Piano: Alicia Keyes, Elton John

Horns: James Browns' Heart Attack Horns, Chuck Mangione, Chris Botti

Bass guitar: Sting, Paul McCartney, Wayman Tisdale

Vocals: Luther Vandross, Anita Baker, Martha Wash, Melinda Doolitle,
Reginald Belle, Melissa Etheridge, Toni Braxton, Christina Aguilera.

Die: Adam Lambert Every time you sing "What Do You Want From Me?"
my answer is always the same. I want you to develop throat cancer and
stop infecting the airwaves.

Guitars: Juan Valdivia/Tom Morello/Eddie Van Halen

Good call on the drums, my picks are John Bonham, Gene Krupa and Rick Allen
from Def Leppard.

[WhoolioPreludee]

John was and is the greatest drummer. Period. Couldn't agree with you more. Rick Is A very commendable drummer considering he lost one extremity

I have total respect for Rick Allen. Most people would have packed it in, Rick took
the Marine Corps approach of adapt and overcome. And he is still on top of his game.

Yes, Adam Lambert needs to be vanquished to some special circle of h3ll.... and quick.

I forgot Roger Waters.

[SterlingArcher]

but you remembered the $*%& $*#&%@$&%^@# that is david gilmour

[KillYouWithMyMind]

I have no idea what you mean Archer. Is that a compliment or insult?

[SterlingArcher]

insult. as much as i love Pink Floyd, I despise Gilmour.

[KillYouWithMyMind]

Eh. Well to each his own, I think he's a great guitarist.

Waters is a great bassist but I think he's a better songwriter.

[amazinglygraceless]

Crap!! I completely forgot to add SRV to the line up.

[KillYouWithMyMind]

Yeah me too. I think the list will never end.

[amazinglygraceless]

Yeah me too. I think the list will never end.

That's the beauty of it. Just think of the band we will create

[KillYouWithMyMind]

Well, I'm gonna start on singles members and different genres

Metal band:

Guitar: Dimebag Darrell of Pantera. Best damn metal guitarist there ever was.
Bass: John Campbell of Lamb of God
Drums: Danny Carey of Tool
Vocals: Rob Halford of Judas Priest

And just for the fudge of it-
Rythm Guitar: Adam Jones of Tool

[amazinglygraceless]

The perfect metal band already exists. It is "The Cult" Listen to "Fire Woman" and
tell me I'm wrong

[KillYouWithMyMind]

Never heard em but I've heard of The Cult. I'll give it a listen.

We should start an imaginary battle of the bands thread. THEN we'll see who's the true perfect metal band!

[KillYouWithMyMind]

OH! And I'm changing my singer to Valient Himself, singer of Valient Thorr.

[amazinglygraceless]

Where the heck is Wulf and Paddy? I'd love their insight,

[KillYouWithMyMind]

Where the heck is Wulf and Paddy? I'd love their insight,

You know where they are

[jlb21]

For me:

Lead Vocals/Flute: Peter Gabriel
Guitar: Steve Hackett
Keys: Tony Banks
Drums: Phil Collins
Bass: Mike Rutherford

They could call themselves "The Oldies But Goodies".

Seriously, the only 2 bands I have not seen that I would really like to have seen would be the Peter Gabriel-led Genesis incarnation and The Beatles. No one is more likely to ever occur than the others.
