You are allowed a maximum of 6 musicians in your band.....

So come on then, you can have ANYBODY in your band (dead or alive).

Mark E Smith, Johnny Marr, bassist out of Interpol, John Bonham, with me on bongoes and Kevin Shields doing the sound. We'd rock!

The Ian Mitchell Tribute Band


Vocalist- Jim Morrison (The Doors)
First Guitarist-Jimi Hendrix (Hendrix Experience)
Second Guitarist-Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin)
Third Guitarist/ Backup Vocals- Rory Gallagher
Bassist- John Entwistle (The Who)

Sadly only one of my guys is alive...

Vocalist/Keyboards/Guitar/Trumpet - Scott Klopenstein (Reel Big Fish/The Littlest Man Band)
Guitar/Vocals - Brian Klemm (Suburban Legends)
Trombone - Dan Regan (Reel Big Fish/The Littlest Man Band)
Trumpet - Vince Walker (The Littlest Man Band/Suburban Legends)
Bass - Matt Freeman (Rancid/Operation Ivy)
Drummer - Shutty (Ex Terrorvision)

Bit of an odd combo (Bradford and Orange County!), but half of them have played together in bands before anyway, so they'd be great....

# Vocalist- Jim Morrison (The Doors)

# Second Guitarist-Bob Dylan (Needs no introduction)
# Third Guitarist/ Backup Vocals-Sting (The Police)
# Bassist- The dood from Funkadelic (Parliament)

John Coltrane-Saxophones
Brian Eno- Electronics, Treatments
Robert Fripp- Gibson Guitar/ Treatments
John McLaughlin- Fender Guitar
Jon Hassell- Trumpet, Treatments
Percy Jones-Electric Bass
McCoy Tyner-Piano
Jamie Muir- Percussives
Bill Bruford- Drumkit
Billy Cobham-Drumkit
Salvatore Accardo-Violin

...and so as this.


Anyway my fantasy band may be :

John Entwistle_Bass.
George Harrison_Guitar.
Lou Reed_Vox.
Mick Gallagher_Keyboards,organs,synths.

I reserve the right to change my line up if they don't produce a no 1 album.
