    Your dream band

    No specific music genre - rock, pop, r&b, country, rap, blues, jazz, etc. I want to hear your nominees for an all-time all-star band. If you had the power to resurrect and an unlimited supply of money, who would you pick?

    Here are my choices for my dream rock/blues band:

    Lead Vocals - Steve Perry
    Female Lead Vocals - Janis Joplin (younger Janis, pre-drugs)
    Lead Guitar - Joe Satriani
    Lead Guitar - Stevie Ray Vaughn
    Rhythm/slide guitar - Kenny Wayne Shephard
    Bass - Les Claypool
    Percussion - Neil Peart
    Keyboards - Billy Joel
    Harmonica - Paul Butterfield
    Songwriters - Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Muddy Waters
    L


    Welcome to four more years of the most dangerous presidency in history.

    Wow, what a great concept this is!
    I doubt my dream band will resemble anyone else's though.

    Band Name: The Forgotten Parachutes

    Shirley Manson (Garbage)- Vocals
    Melora Creager (Rasputina) - Vocals / Cello
    Edge (U2) - Lead Guitar
    Dan Yaremko (Econoline Crush) - Bass Guitar
    Rick Allen (Def Leppard) - Drums
    Brian Rapoza (Carfax Abbey) - Keyboards
    Mibbly (Unit 23 webmaster) - synthesizer / mixmaster

    Songwriters - Sarah McLachlan, Leslie Fish, Michael Stipe

    "theatrical experience" - Meat Loaf, Cyndi Lauper, KISS

    (you'd probably have to sedate all of these people to get them to work together...)
    Flash! Don't heckle the supervillain!

    Lead Guitar - Slash (was Angus Young)
    Lead Guitar - Tom Morello
    Rhythm/Backup Vocals - Jerry Cantrell

    Good point. I've traded Angus and a drummer to be named later for Slash.
