If you could create a super-group…

As an example, here is mine; or one that I thought up pretty quick-like:

Vocals:   Robert Plant        
(Led Zeppelin)

Guitar:   Jack White          

Bass:     Geddy Lee          
(Rush)

Drums:   Ginger Baker        
(Cream)

@captain:

Jimi Hendrix-lead guitar
Peter Gabriel-vocals
Les Claypool (Primus)- bass
Keith Moon (Who)-drums
Keith Emerson (ELP)-keyboards

Nice… You did throw in the extra man for keyboards, but I guess I will let it slide.

I dig the Hendrix-Moon thing… I can hear it now.

Interesting choice with Peter Gabriel on vocals. Haven’t heard of the other two.

@variance:

Neurosis

I hate it when youtube links are posted as evidence of a premise not clearly stated in the first place. Whatever the intended effect, it clearly is not in the spirit of this thread.

Seems like it would belong more on your “Best song (album) ever” topic.

@johnnymarr:

Vocals- Robert Plant
Guitar- Jimmy Page
Bass- John Paul Jones
Drums- John Bonham

Well, haven’t heard from the JM in a while… how fitting that our topic is music when he happens back.

I know we all wish Led Zeppelin would be reborn, but this does not even attempt to address in serious terms what I am asking for.

I am kinda surprised that I didn’t see Morrissey, Johnny Marr, Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce instead.

I think you need to change your name to jimmypage.

@Gargantua:

AU CONTRAIR!  He is saying Neurosis is his super group.

Pwned!

I (and everyone else) could use some explanation to the that effect.

And I thought it went without mentioning, though it seems not so, that you cannot just choose an existing band.

Oh here we go!

Changing the rules of the game!!!  I’ve played Axis and Allies against your kind before!

It’s my game and I’ll change the rules if I want to!   :-P

But apparently following the rule in the first place doesn’t matter! From my above rules:

Oh yes… and the limit would be one musician from each historical group.

@Gargantua:

Fine…

You win… ;)

To be honest I did not expect that, but thank you anyway.

@variance:

Geeze OK I will conform to your precious rules then.  GOD!

Rowland S Howard: guitar
Shirley Manson: vocals
Dave Lombardo: Drums
Sid Vicious: Bass
Marilyn Manson: electronic noises and visuals
Henry Rollins: roadie and security

(and no Shirley Manson and Marilyn Manson are not from the same band)

Why thank you Vance or Variance… whichever you were/prefer! I appreciate it, even though I have next to zero reference for the people in your band. That would be my problem, not yours.

@Gargantua:

The Star Wars picture is aptly titled… however, I am kinda freaked out by this one. I am a Star Trek fan and all… more than I am for Star Wars, but this is disturbing in ways I cannot begin to detail.
