if you were to form a dream band, who would be the band members?

Vocals: Zack de la Rocha (Rage Against The Machine)
Backing Vocals: Steve Machado (Technocracy)
Lead: Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine)
Lead: David Gilmour (Pink Floyd)
Rhythm: Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath)
Bass: Reginald Arvizu (Korn)
Drums: Noah Bernardo (P.O.D)

I tried to use musicians that are all alive and play the same genre,apart from Gilmour but I like his tone, without focusing on the sub-genre

I think oysterhead is a near perfect band except they cuased the my 2 favorite bands not to play...Phish and Primus.

Les Clapool the bass
Trey Anastasio the Guitar
Stewart Copeland the drums

how could you go wrong?

Jari Maenpaa - Lead guitar 1

Alexi Laiho - Lead guitar 2

Mick Thomson - Rhythm guitar

Steve Harris - Bass Guitar

Corey Taylor - Vocals

Joey Jordison - Drums


(or Metallica from 1982)

Vocals: Stevie Wonder and Anthony Keidis (RHCP), switching off, but sometimes in harmony
Guitar 1: Buckethead
Guitar 2: Tom Morello - RATM
Bass: Victor Wooten
Drum: Not sure here.

It would be a heavily funk influenced band, but I'm sure Vic could keep up Buckethead for some super-fast Bass/Guitar duels. Also, I think it would be cool to see how the very technical Buckethead would combine with Morello's guitar, which was heavily influenced by hip-hop DJs.

Guitar 1, Rhandy Rhoads

Guitar 3, Jason Becker
Vocals, Rob Halford When he was younger... (Painkiller time)

Guitar: Jerry Garcia
Guitar: Nels Cline
Bass: Phil Lesh
Percussion: Ringo Starr
Keyboards: Rick Wright

lead Guitar Dave Mustaine

rhythm guitar and vocals James Hetfield (1986)

Bass Steve Harris

idk anything about drums sooo Joey Jordison

I think i would want to jam with your band!!!

i noticed alot of steve harris while going thru here

Yeah hes awsome. To much galloping rhythm for my taste though. I prefer Geezer Butler from Black Sabbath. Watch the Heaven and Hell dvd. Hes doing almost five times the work of everybody else. Why? idk, hes turned down a good bit that show. Good spectacle though haha.

check out john entwistle from the who...one of the greatest bass players ever. he would slap, pluck, finger, use a pick and tap all at once and it meshed so perfectly with the rest of the band that you really do realize how complex his lines really were.

Vocals: Ian Gillan
Guitar: Jimi Hendrix
Rhythm Guitar: Keith Richards
Bass: Paul Mcartney
Drums: John Bohnam

@ Tele - Dude! Thats awsome never heard of him though. I mean I've heard of The Who [WHO hasn't? lol] but not him. I'll check him out.

Vocals: Jim Morrison (The Doors)
Lead Guitar: Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath)
Rhythm Guitar: Mike Einziger (Incubus)
Bass and Backing Vocals : Paul McCartney (Beatles)
Drummer: Ginger Baker (Cream)
Keyboard: Rick Wakemen (YES)

I don't know too many bass players but Paul's vocals might compliment Jim's quite nicely.
