[Music] If you could have been in a band, any hand ..... Which band would you have been in?

[Icy Gull]

I was just thinking that too .. (or The Faces)

The Small Faces rather than the Faces for me

 

[Icy Gull]

As a bass player I wouldn't want to be in the blockheads, the who, the stranglers or the Beatles. Their bass players are quite good enough.

I think I'd be more than a match for Bill Wynman in the Stones though.

Otherwise HP Lovercraft, or Moby Grape, or Caravan or Pink Floyd circa 1968.

Cream as Jack Bruce might be a step too far then?

 

[southstandandy]

The Boxer Rebellion

 

[WATFORD zero]

Charlie in the Stones

Brilliant life, all the fun and debauchery AND you get to deck Mick

I was in a mates band for one night as they were short staffed and they roped me in last minute, we did a gig at Clair Hall Haywards Heath
Dont remember the name of the band, dont remember the gig itself either.
Its all a bit odd as i dont play any musical instruments, something about free Newcastle Brown .......sure it was fun.........bloody 80`s, everyone was a superstar.

Loved to have been in Big Country, gigs were brilliant.Maybe kept an eye on Stuart Adamson........frack that was sad.

 

[Hungry Joe]

Thin White Rope or The Posies.

 

[fork me]

The Runaways

 

[boik]

Loved to have played keyboards with Andy Partridge, Colin Moulding and Terry Chambers. Maybe I could have persuaded AP to have carried on playing live. Still miss those gigs.

 

[Weststander]

The Bangles. Simply due to the artistry of Susanna Hoffs.

Otherwise, New Order. Love their music and touring they had a ball behind the scenes.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Thin White Rope or The Posies.

That is possibly the best thing I have ever seen on North Stand Chat.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Maybe Guided By Voices of Teenage Fanclub.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Or CAN, or early Roxy Music ..... I think I'd have been great in early Roxy Music.

 

[Hungry Joe]

Hurrah! and thank you

[Megazone]

Boyzone simply for the drugs, sex, smashing up hotel rooms, swearing on national TV, promoting violence and head butting paparazzi.

Pure brilliance. I have many a daydream about playing the second guitar parts in TWR songs, and as for the pentatonic parts on On the Floe.....swoon.

Moonhead has some lovely noodling and punchy drums... for fans of Magazine,Wire, CAN, Roxy Music, 13th Floor Elevators and all things good.

Absolutely, great album (and eponymous track). For The Posies daydream we'd be playing the whole of Frosting on the Beater and Amazing Disgrace in order.

The Ruby Sea is probably my favourite. I bloody love that album....

 

[Hungry Joe]

The Ruby Sea is probably my favourite. I bloody love that album.... it sounds like Thin White Rope v early Cocteau Twins.

Aye, a great way to bow out.
