If you could be in any band, what would it be? (1 Viewer)

[Anthony]

bass player in ac/dc

The magic band with beefheart.

Constantly being bawled out by a genuine loon while living on half a cup of lima beans a day? No thanks

 

[Latex lizzie]

I'd be beefheart of course. We are living in la la land anyway so why not.

 

[egg_]

Oh right, haha that's different so

 

[Latex lizzie]

Yeah. I'd be the loon in charge of the lima beans.

 

[La La]

welcome to my hood.

Twilight Singers.. that Whelans gig is still the best gig I've ever been too. Plus you get introduced to the audience and get to do a cool 'intro riff' thing..

Actually.. all the gigs I've seen since that one have been fairly rubbish in comparison, except maybe James Yorkston. How depressing.

 

[Junglebob]

The Queens of the Stone Age, Nick Oliveri's replacement or Devo. A bit different from each other but brilliant none the less!!

 

[czar]

the triangle player in raging speedhorn . . . easy money

greg dulli = heart attack man. that lewd gesture he makes with his tongue thru a sideways V sign never fails to get me aroused. i never thought a sweating man in a feather boa could be so sexy. said my girlfriend. hilarious, completely entertaining, great music. yeah great gig.

CIV circa Set Your Goals or The Dandy Warhols so i could do loads of drugs, see yer wan on keys with her ta tas out on a regular basis, and punch the fuckin singer in the face and pretend i was only messing cos sure amn't i in the band with ya yeh fuckin cunt.

 

[kevin gallen]

the funk brothers.
has anyone seen 'standing in the shadows of motown'?

They seem kinda bitter so would not be too keen on that. Half of them died that way.

 

[RSJ]

Oh and Blink 182 purely so i could watch Travis drum on a daily basis and maybe get some lessons off him.

Finally: Refused. Actually, scrap everything, just refused.

 

[Zeelander]

Of late, more and more often I find myself wishing that I could be Tina Turner.

 

[Pantone247]

good call

I'd pick The Wrecking Crew, circa when phil spector was god

or early Spiritulized

 

[evil bandit]

Crazy Horse.

Great shout, I'd love to have been in The Clash circa 1979 even though I was only one month when London Calling was released, I'd have to be Topper BHeadon because you can't fuck with the Holy Trinity of Jones, Strummer and Simonim.

Other wise I'd love to be in the Thrills so I could get on stage and jsut beat the shit out of all of them.

 

[plug]

considering my current attitude toward work/play/sleep/etc., I'd have to say some old washed up band who haven't done anything in years but still make a fortune in airplay royalties etc.

I have no motivation in life in other words

alternatively, I'd gladly step in for george hurley and play drums for the minutemen!

or I'd hit a cowbell for george clinton/parliamentfunkadelic somewhere in the mid 70's

 

[spady]

dEUS. I'd get to wear vests and stetsons. and play and co-operatively create clever interesting and brilliant music. and smoke loads of pale ginger green. whatever that means.

Dude, that was her hair... "her hair was pail ginger green". And you want to smoke it?

I concur though, dEUS would be cool band to be in.... bags being Stef Camil Carlens - that means I get to do all the high-pitched bits AND play bass.

Stef is back in the band now btw... all the rest of the changes are so all over the shop I couldn't be arsed typing/figuring them out.

[P. Littbarski]

give the choice i think i'd go for the bad seeds...

if they were not hiring i'd settle for being the drummer in Weezer.

If i'd been asked this around 17 years ago I would have said A-ha.
