Your Fantasy Band.

Post by Dejavu » Sat Feb 17, 2018 11:34 pm

Who would be in your fantasy band and why.

I'll start the ball rolling.

Frontman/ Vocals. Freddie Mercury. (Queen) Simply the best ever. Amazing voice and incredible showman.
Lead Guitar. Eddie Van Halen. (Van Halen) Innovative and ground breaking sound.
Bass Guitar. Mark KIng. (Level 42) Technically brilliant.
Stewart Copeland. (The Police). His work made the Police sound. His fills are legendary.
