ah, yes, the dream band thread....


well, it's not the most diverse dream band ever...


Vocals/Keyboards: Tony Kakko (Sonata Arctica)
Vocals/Rhythm Guitar: James Hetfeild (Metallica)
Lead Guitar: Jani Liimatainen (Sonata Arctica)
Bass: Joey DeMaio (Manowar)
Drums: Lars Ulrich (Metallica)

(edit/additions to come soon, I'm sure)


Yes, keyboards. Go to hell. They can add a lot to music due to their versatility as an instrument. No key-tars tho, I promise.

A lot of you are also scowling at Lars, I'm sure. The fact of the matter is, he's entertaining. He's an excellent drummer who can bring either the perfect amount of over the top energy or understanded stubtly to a song. He wouldn't be allowed to do any of his patented Lars-brand whining. I wanted to add Tommy Prtimo, Sonata Arctica's drummer, because I LOVE the rapid, bouncy rhythm many SA songs have. However, Lars is very well versed as a drummer, so I selected him, as he could no doubt pick that up in his sleep.

Have you ever watched him drum? It's hilarious.

verminator_x, how can you put Roger Daltrey and Keith Moon on there while ignoring Pete Townshend and John Entwistle?

i would put pete and john on the 6th place behind the other 5 well the other five of my favourite guitarist and bass players.

I doubt any of you know half the people I've listed here but what ever

Vocals: Mikael Stanne *Dark Tranquillity* or Anders Friden (Only if he sings like he did before his band sold out) *In Flames*
Lead Guitar/Back-up Vocals: Alexi Laiho *Children Of Bodom*
Guitar: Michael Amott *Arch Enemy
Bass: Jonas Bjorler *At The Gates*
Drums: Adrian Erlandsson *Cradle Of Filth*
Keyboards: Mustis *Dimmu Borgir*
Orchestra: The Gothenburg Orchestra *Multiple bands*

Oh man that would kick ass, now if I did a band with an 80's line-up it would look like this

Vocals: Bruce Dickinson *Iron Maiden*
Lead Guitar: Yngwie J. Malmsteen *Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force*
Guitar: Alex Skolnick *Testament*
Bass: Steve Harris *Iron Maiden*
Drums: Dave Lombardo *Slayer*

I didn't want to use two people from the same band but Harris is such an awesome bassist and I think Bruce has the best 80's metal vocals. Though Dio wasn't so bad but still o_O

Vocals: Oderus Urungus

Lead Guitar: Yngwie Malmsteen

Rythym Guitar: Prince

Bass: Bootsy Collins

Drums: Danny Carey
