Guitars : Mike Oldfield Drums : Phil Collins Keyboard : Rick Wakeman & Tony Banks Vocalists : Jon Anderson, and, well a female voice, but I don't remember which one I'd prefer Bass : Michael Stele (the woman playing the bass in the Bangles) Other instruments : Sitar, tabla, Djembe Bonus : Gamelan Orchestra You notice my favourite music : So-called "Progressive Rock". ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) With ethnical influences. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Vocalist: Rob Halford Guitarist(s) Yngwie Malmsteen & David Gilmour (Now there's a combo for you. Just picture the sound!) Bass: Paul Webb (I love his walking the fret board style of bass playing.) Drums: Neil Peart (Obvious choice) Keyboard: Tony Kaye (Another Obvious choice) It would be very interesting to actually hear them get together and play. ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png)

Before I start, I can say that it would be nice if you said where your bandmembers have played, and why you picked them. Gives it a better background. And you ALL missed the "what kind of band" part ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . Vocals: At first I'd say David Gahan and Martin L. Gore (both from Depeche Mode). In Depeche they really compensate eachother nice, with David Gahan's deep, kind of thick voice countered by Martin L Gore's really, really soft vocals. In the end I think I'd swap David Gahan for Andrew Eldrich (Sisters of Mercy) though, since Andrew Eldrich simplly has a better voice than David Gahan (for one, it goes way further down). Even though I suspect his collaboration with Martin Gore would be... strained, to say the least... Andrew Eldrich has a reputation of not getting along with pepole ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . Alternativlly I'd put myself here, just for the fun of singing in this kind of band ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . On drums: Jimmy Chamberlain, Smashing Pumpkins. Former jassdrummer, and in my oppinion, the driving force in Smashing Pumpkins music (even though Billy Corgan was the driving force in Smashing Pumpkins). Though this drummer might not go with the rest of the band (musically), so alternativlly I'll throw in a drummachine (not necesarilly named Doctor Avalance ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) ). (That last one was a reference to Sisters of Mercy's drummachine.) Now come the difficult part... Guitarrplayer one: Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins. Great guitarrplayer (even thought he's not Out of This World-good), who allso is a creative force. Backing keyboards (will have two keyboardplayers, for symphonic effect ;D): Alan Wilder, former Depeche Mode (who later quit becuase he didn't feel apreshiated enought. Goes great with Andrew Eldrich ;D). Said to be the only schooled Depeche member, and was allso greatlly involved in the arranging in that band. Highlly skilled keyboardplayer, who goes great as second keyboardplayer. So, we have singers, one guitarrplayer (thought as backup), one backing keyboardist, and a drummer. Needed is a lead guitarrist, a baseplayer, and a lead keyboardist... I think I'll save that til later ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . Übereil

Okay, why I chose them : Guitars : Mike Oldfield - excellent guitar player and capable of wonderful harmonies Drums : Phil Collins - one of the beast drummers I know (and probably of the world) Keyboard : Rick Wakeman & Tony Banks - both capable of both very fast (especially Wakeman) and complex (both) playing & harmonies Vocalists : Jon Anderson, and, well a female voice, but I don't remember which one I'd prefer - Jon Anderson has one of the most astonishing voices I know. Same goes for Morton Harket from A-Ha, whom I'd add. Personally, I think that female singers are somewhat underrepresented, but what I also see is the layout of male band - female singer, but NEVER the opposite ... ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) Bass : Michael Stele (the woman playing the bass in the Bangles) - she isn't a great player, but still fairly good, and played very "emotional", that's how I'd call it.
