The Zone's Fantasy Band

[DaleTremont]

Guitar- Mick Ronson
Bass- Sid Vicious
Vocals- Iggy Pop
Backup Vocals- Nico
Tambourine- Yoko Ono

My fantasy band is all about style.

There's some old school voodoo in that line up.
Very nice.

Sorta hard to take seriously when the only percussion is Yoko Ono's tambourine.

This is true.
How about throwing a madman like Jamie Muir in on percussion?
He'd fit right in.

I thought Keith Moon carried over. And tambourine doesn't count as percussion! It's the throwaway position (which is why Yoko Ono is perfect for it )

But I have not heard of this Jamie Muir...good enough to illegally download?

[The Vicar]

Muir is really old school - best example of his insanity can be found on Lark's Tongue in Aspec by King Crimson, circa 1974.
Yeah, I'm old as hell....and about as dry.

I think we have a thread around here like this already.

But here's one lineup I like:

Vocals - Roger Daltrey

Guitar - Pete Townshend

That would probably be a damn good band, I think.

MM - you would have won the thread AND the internetz for the day had you credited Ron Burgandy with playing the "yazz flute" (or made mention that the "J" was silent).

HahahaHAR! Damn. I am due a re-watch. Stumbling across that group at a festival (playing a version of this) would blow my mind.
