That Star Wars band is awesome. I wonder what a Han solo sounds like....

 

[shadow_pirate22]

Singer: Serj Tankian
Bassist: John Moyer
Drums: The Reverand Tholomew Plague
Guitarists: Prince Arthas and Herman Li

Almost as epic as the Star wars band.

 

[taquito_sandywich]

Hurdy-Gurdy: Anna Murphy (Eluveitie)
Um.. The ONLY player in a folk metal band I can think of.

Tin Whistle: Pade (Eluveitie)
Seriouosly insanely good at tin whistle.

I freaking love you

If you could make a band comprised of your favorite musicians, who would the members be, and why? For me it would be:

Vocals: Chris Cornell (Soundgarden, Audioslave)
Absolutely amazing vocal range and writes meaningful lyrics

Guitar: Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave)
Made new and unique guitar sounds by doing things like hitting the strings with a pencil, or scratching the strings.

Bass: Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
Because RHCP has some funky bass grooves!

Drums: Keith Moon (The Who)
Because he was one of the inventors of "Rock Attitude", and because of his extremely unorthodox drumming style.

That band would be insanely sweet!

 

[Projekt Spartan]

I agree

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

Have Andrew Whitman and Brendan Canning team up with The New Pornographers and you've pretty much got my dream band.

 

[JBarracudaL]

Vocals/Piano; Regina Spektor
Second lead vocals/Rhythm Guitar; Anneke Van Giersbergen
Lead Guitar; Robert Fripp
Bass; Sean Malone
Keyboard/Backing Vocals; Brian Eno
Saxophone; John Whooley
Violin/Turmpet; Timb Harris
Drums; Gavin Harrison
Cowbell; Christopher Walken

Clearly.

Well, I would have a heavy metal band, so...

Vox: Ozzy (Black Sabbath, solo artist)
- He's just too fucking metal! to leave out.

Lead Guitar: Janick Gers (Iron Maiden - interchangeable with Adrian Smith or Dave Murray, based on my mood, I guess )
- A metal band without an Iron Maiden guitarist? Impossible, I think.

Rhythm Guitar: Jesper Stromblad (In Flames)
- His rhythm licks add beauty to In Flames' songs - therefore, he makes my dream band.

Bass: Cliff Burton (Metallica)
- The greatest metal bassist. Ever. Would get Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth) to play at every gig.

Drums: Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters, Nirvana)
- No contest, probably. More rock than metal, but far too awesome to leave out.

Extra peoples:

Guest vocals: David Draiman (Disturbed)

Guest Lead: Randy Rhodes (Ozzy Osbourne), Jim Root (Slipknot, Stone Sour)

Guest Rhythm: James Hetfield (Metallica), Dave Mustaine (Megadeth)

 

[speedcoreXdandy]

My band would be an experimental electro-jazz-grind band.

Bass: Brian Gibson (Lightning Bolt)
Drums: Gabe Serbian (The Locust, Cattle Decapitation, Holy Molar)
Theramin: Clara Rockmore
Guitar: Ichirou Agata (Melt Banana)
Guitar 2: Wata (BORIS)
Trumpet: Miles Davis
Keyboard: Joseph Karam (The Locust)
Turntables: Qbert

That would be sweet. Weird but sweet.

 

[Hippobatman]

Vocals: Jørn Lande (Jorn)
Lead guitar: Adrian Smith (Iron Maiden)
Rythm guitar: Dave Mustaine (Megadeth)
Drums: Dave Lombardo (Slayer)
Bass: Joey Demaio (Manowar)

It is generally pointless to make a dream jazz band because pretty much everybody has already played with everybody else.

That being said, I want Eva Cassidy on vocals.

 

[Jonathan Hexley]

Singer: Kurt Cobain
He's one of music's greatest singers, even before he was dead. Just a legend. His songs are always quite... I don't know how to describe them, but they make me think. And I like it when a song makes me think.

Lead Guitarist: Buckethead/Slash
Buckethead is - in my opinion - an extremely great guitarist, but that may just be my love of squeedly solos. But Slash would probably fit in better with Kurt Cobain's vocals, as Slash's style is a more classic Rock sound.

Bassist: Flea
Oh come on, he's one of the greatest bassists of all time.

Drummer: Keith Moon/Mike Wengren
Keith Moon... He'd fit in with the whole classic Rock thing I've got going for me here... But Mike Wengren (Drummer for Disturbed, who I'm not really a fan of) is quite good in my opinion. That being said, I've only listened to Down With The Sickness, but I just love the drumming at the beginning. It just adds to a pretty dark atmosphere that Kurt Cobain is good at adding to, Slash is great at - E.g: Slither by Velvet Revolver, Buckethead is pretty cool at - E.g: Shackler's Revenge by Guns N' Roses/The Axl Rose Project, and let's face it, Flea can do next to anything.

That would be my idea of a pretty cool band.

 

[Cpt_Oblivious]

Singer: Corey Taylor (Slipknot, Stone Sour): He can sing and shout, both well.

Guitarists: Slash (Guns n Roses, Velvet Revolver) : Because it's Slash..
Zakk Wylde (Ozzy Osbourne, Black Label Society) : No good reason but his beard.

Bassist: Steve Harris (Iron Maiden) : He made bass cool for me.

Drums: The Rev (Avenged Sevenfold) : Good drummer with some crazy backing vocals.

Keyboards: Tuomas Holopainen (Nightwish) : Great Keyboarder (is it -er?) and songwriter.

 

[J-Man]

Vocals: Florence (florence & the machine)
Everyone else from Architecture in Helsinki

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Guitarists:
Jimi Hendrix, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Slash, Kirk Hammet, Yngwie Malmsteen, Santana, Zakk Wylde, Dimebag Darrel (but alive), Angus Young, BB King and Tom Morrello

Bassists: Steve Harris, Cliff Burton, John Entwistle and Flea

Drummers: Joey Jordison, Keith Moon, Dave Lombardo, Keith Moon and John Bonham

Vocalists: Ozzy, Dave Grohl, Robert Plant and Corey Taylor.

All as a backing group for Reel Big Fish.

I'm going to say what I said a few weeks ago when asked this question.

My first choice was "Dream Theater but with me on bass" but that isn't very exciting so.

Vocals - Feist
Lead Guitar - Santana
Rhythm Guitar - John Frusciante
Keyboard - Toby Smith (from early Jamiroquai)
Bass - Me
Scratches/Samples/Rapping - Buck 65
Drums/percussionist - Michael Barker (from the John Butler Trio)

Oh man that would be awesome!

 

[maddawg IAJI]

Drums:Keith Moon
Lead guitar: Eddie Van Halen
Base guitar:John Paul Jones
Rythm(if needed):Jimmi Henderix
Singer: Bob Dylan(kidding actually i would have to say Bon Scott)

They would revive classic rock (despite the fact that 3 of them are dead.)

 

[Aqualung]

Singer/Composer: Matthew Bellamy (Muse)

Violinist: Samvel Yervinyan (Yanni)

Pianist: Ennio Morricone

Guitarist: Syu (Galneryus)

Drums: George Kollias (Nile)

Also some of the blokes from The Black Seeds on sax, trumpet, etc. [/Dreamy sigh]
