What kind of music would you play?

Would you be the leading man/lady or are you playing instruments in the background?

What artists would be most influential on your music?


Where would your coolest music video be shot?

I've always wanted a band but lack talent haha. I'd want to be the lead singer of a classic-rock sounding band. I have long hair so i'd love to wave it around and just get all into it. Sweating passionate ya know. Although i'd probably add a bit of theatrics to it too. The most influential would probably be Ian Gillan from Deep Purple, Peter Gabriel from Genesis and Freddie Mercury from Queen. And I wouldn't do a music video as they distract from the music.

I'd wanna' be a cross between Joy Division, The Velvet Underground, and Sonic Youth. I'd like to alternate between me and a female singer....:tongue:

I would play garage rock with heavy danceable beats.

I would do lead singing, because I suck at instruments!

Influences would be Franz Ferdinand, The White Stripes, and The Cramps.


And I would shoot my music video underwater :D

I'm of the opinion that talent is optional, if not preferable....:tongue:

You've given this a lot of thought, musikman!

And I would LOVE to hear a Radiohead/coldplay mix. That would make my ears explode in a sea of awesome.

I play with two bands. One, I play drums and the other I play electric guitar. As soon as I write some more songs, I want to start my own.

What kind of music would you play?


Some form of rock, would need some time to define our sound.


Would you be the leading man/lady or are you playing instruments in the background?


I was the frontman in the last three bands I was in, might as well. I would still like to learn to play the guitar though.


What artists would be most influential on your music?


Tool, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Toadies, Nixons, and Pink Floyd


Where would your coolest music video be shot?


On a free-floating stage hovering over the Grand Canyon or Niagra Falls. At the end we would all bungee jump off the stage.
