    After Ponders and Typical both think it's a good idea, I'll start a thread on fantasy bands, not hard, just pick your ultimate band, they can be dead, alive, dead looking (Keith Richards) just yeah, who would you have?

    Freddie Mercury - Front Man,
    Keith Moon - Drums
    Jimi Hendrix - Guitar
    Cliff Burton - Bassist

    Yeah that's a dead band for ya all to start with

    I don't know about the others, but for me Johnny Marr has to be in any fantasy band

    I was going to have Marr on lead, but I plumped for Buckingham in the end. I feel bad for leaving Morrissey out, but he wouldn't suit the style.

    Rob Thomas - Vocals
    Lindsey Buckingham - Lead G
    Ronnie Wood - Bass
    Izzy Stradlin - R. Guitar
    Manzarek - Keyboard
    Bonzo Bonham - Drums

    I would have Artie Fufkin as promotions manager.

    Okey doke, thought for a while about this

    Vocals: Karin Dreijer Andersson
    Vocals: Julie Budet
    Guitar: Johnny Marr
    Keyboard: Tanguy Destable
    Drums: Matt Helders

    Not a clue what they'd sound like, but I bet the remixes would be good.

    They're all alive too, so a possibility... now to get their phone numbers

    Super - thought i'd do a super band involving Barker and Flea, but thought meshing together DJ Shadow, The Chemical Brothers and Massive Attack into one would be better

    Travis Barker and DJ A.M were a pretty formidable team for the genre. Think TB is one of the most underrated drummers in music.
