    The composition of the band is entirely up to the individual gawd.

    I'll have
    Drums - Burke
    Bass - Hook
    Keyboards -
    Guitars -
    Vocal -

    Others
    Backing singer
    Brass/sax/trumpet
    Percussionist

    Producer - or Gawd might produce it theyself - in which case probaly hire an engineer.

    I don't think there is any need to nominate 'lead' and 'rhythm' guitars - these guys can do it all - just the number - 1 if that's enough for your sound, 2 would be 'standard', 3 worked for Lynard Skynard. Maybe the singer strums too.

    I've worked out 1 guitar so far. For sheer versatility one is Wood, R.



    Sigh. Santana, Townshend, Beck, Moore, Richards, Zappa, Knopfler....:slap:

    wow .. ok .. so im a bit of a Southern Rock fan and loved the sound of Lynyrd Skynyrd (Spelled correctly for Big Dave), Molly Hatchet and the Outlaws..


    so triple lead guitar... Eddie Van Halen, Alex Lifeson from RUSH, and Carlos Santana (just dont let him talk)

    Bass - Geddy Lee from Rush or Geezer Butler from Sabbath

    Drums - Neil Peart or Tommy Aldrege

    Frontman - there can be only one ... David Lee Roth.. maybe let Dave Grohl sing backup

    I think Sarge has the way to go with this, it's too hard unless you think of the style of band you're aiming for...I'm going classic blues based rock, and I've given myself an extra constraint with no two members from any real band (so Bonzo, Bob Plant and JP Jones all out of contention...) three guitars 'cos it's gotta be live eh?


    Drums: Ginger Baker
    Bass: John Entwistle
    Guitar1: Jimmy Page
    Guitar2: Billy Gibbons
    Guitar3: Keith Richards
    Vocals: Ian Gillan or Paul Rogers, can't quite decide.

    My head hurts contemplating Guitarists.

    Da singa.

    Co-pilot is adament that Hutchence, M. is her front man. I understand that too. I saw Michael in his Oxford Street heyday many times and that was the voice (and hair) of a rock god in it's prime.

    Elegantly wasted - from the 2nd comeback.

    But I don't think I want a rock god. I'm in charge here. I want a vocalist. A singer. Maybe even a girl?

    Our daughter's middle name is Martha.

    The muffin's Echo Beach for the co pilot:

    The Motel's Martha for me. Sigh. I had a girlfriend that looked like this before I met the CP. Rode a CB250.



    But then I also agree with Jim's nomination.



    but he's also a god so nah.

    A singer I thought - a 'voice'.



    OK - wrong track. Forget the singer bit. Mick, David Bowie, and Ian Dury, I'm sorry.

    I take the portents of drowning in your own vomit as a topical rejoinder and pick Bonn.

    My front man is Scott, B.

    Viva le bogon!

    I can but only agree and therefore your guitarist is an easy pick...Jimi Hendrix.

    Carrying on the drowning/Choking thread Mama Cass would have to be backup vocals.Would make for an interesting dynamic when they play
    Whole Lotta Rosie.

    But these guys were pretty good in there day

    Drums: Topper Headon
    Bass: JJ Burnel
    Guitar1: Johnny Ramone
    Guitar2: East Bay Ray
    Vocals: John Lydon
