to get people posting and talking and arguing, how about a fantasy band line up thing? the line up is one drummer, one bass player, one guitarist and one singer (classic rock format). There's also a wildcard, one other person doing whatever you want (they can be a songwriter, producer, lyricist, visual artist, extra musician etc.) or you can choose to have one person doing two jobs e.g. Damon Che on guitar and drums. The band has to be limited to that format, you can't choose a guitarist and also a singer who's also going to play guitar i.e. everyone is limited to the one thing they're chosen for. Also they all have to be still alive.
Here's mine- Drums: Damon Che (surprise surprise) Guitar: Niko Wenner Bass: Will McGettigan Vocals: Iggy Pop Wildcard: Philip Glass as compositional adviser.

thanks for the reply, the thread was dying on its ass before it had even taken off. i did say they have to be alive though. you'll have to replace fela kuti but i'm going to allow miles davis. wildcards can be dead. you do need to settle on your drummer despite the fact that the two you've picked are more or less interchangeable. am i just being a bit nerdy about all this?

I don't have any particular line-up in mind, but I suppose that my fantasy band that maintains a "classic rock format" would consist of my favorite for each position.
Drums: Damon Che (It was a coin toss between him and Zach Hill.) Guitar: Victor Villarreal Bass: Johnathan Ford Vocals: Tim Kinsella Wildcard: Mulatu Astatke (Saxophone)
