That would be so ridiculous, I wouldn't even be able to comprehend it.

I cannot believe noone would put Jimi, he-whom-without-him-there-would-be-no-sonic-youth.

It must be because he was black.SY fans are as white as Cinderella.

here is my dream indie band

J Mascis - guitar
Lee Ranaldo - guitar
Doug Marscht - guitar
Steve Albini - guitar
PJ Harvey - vocals
Todd Trainer - drums
Mark Sandman (RIP) - bass

Brian Chippendale - drums
Brian Gibson - bass
Steve Albini - guitar
Nick Cave - vocals
Kim Thayil - guitar

Drums-John Bonham
Rhythm Guitar-Dr. Know
Lead Guitar-Tom Verlaine
Bass-John Entwistle
Keys/synths-John Medeski
Vocals-Danzig

I think we did this before too, right?

i think this is like the fourth one of these threads that i've participated in since i joined last August.

lee ranaldo-guitar
olivier manchion (ulan bator bassist)-bass+keyboard noises
dust brothers- electro manipulations
sara lov (devics singer)+mark lanegan = voices
simone pace (blonde redhead)-drums.

i think i'd die if i ever see something like this happen.

Ooh, this is so 'indie'. Pitchfork would love to love this.

Bilinda Butcher-vocals
Billy Corgan-guitar
Peter Hook-Bass
Jesse Keelor-2nd Bass
Lee Ranaldo-backup vox and guitar
Jimmy Chamberlin-drums

Can I just say, I think the first person to say, "My dream band would be Thurston, Kim, Lee and Steve - lol!!!!" should be shot.

I love you.

No really, I do.

[Fucking Rothko - that's a super-hyper-mega fucking ace call]

No seriously - short of the Shaggs that's perfect.

frank black - growls and screeches
lee ranaldo - rhythmic atonal riffing
tom barman - guitar structures and layers
kim deal - ground sugar vocals
dr. avalanche - drums
mark sandman - 2 string slide bass
miles davis - punctuation
morrissey - back up vocals

the band could be called "goth version of hamlet"..
enjoys limited mainstream success, but becomes an inspiring indie favorite..

Not to sound narcisistic, but I'd like a band of about 5 of myself. I get so many weird stupid musical concepts that are hard to explain to people, that it would be awesome to just execute them whenever I (we) thought of them. Plus It would be fun to jam with yourself.

(Please spare me the sexual/masturbation comments that this could precipitate.)












(But an orgy with yourself would rule.)

steve albini
steve turner
steve shelley
and me

DemonBox 1st. Dreamband:

The Self-Titled
Mats Gustaffson - Sax
Bent Sæther - Bass
Lee Ranaldo - Guitar
Deathprod - Audiovirus/Tapes/sampling
Paal Nilsen-Love - Drums
Choir:
Nico, Joni Mitchell, Kim Gordon, Nina Hagen
Vocals:
Lou Reed

That would be so great!

i'd take the first three from soapbar's list and add some:

mark e. smith - vocals/tapes
kevin sheilds - guitar/vocals
lee ranaldo- guitar
philip jeck - turntables
pita (peter rehberg) - laptop
barry burns - various instruments (guitar, flute, computers)
peter hook - bass
brian chippendale - drums

Excellent.
