Four bands I'd like to see new albums from:

Alice in Chains - after seeing their tour last year, it left me thristing for more, I thought Duvall did Staley justice

Rage Against the Machine

The Beastie Boys

Van Halen w/ Roth - I think there is alot left in that tank after that long tour, would be intersting to see what they could pull off for new material

[Pedro58]

Georgia Satellites

[bloodlemons]

[Thor]

Led Zeppelin - hope they make good on their plans to do a more extensive tour.

Big Wrek - fantastic and under-rated.

Kyuss - love QOTSA, but John Garcia is a monster of a front man, and Queens doesn't ever play any of the old Kyuss material

Ride - some of the true pioneers of psychedelic Brit-pop movement

Phish - this may actually happen

Pink Floyd - one can dream....


Fun thread,

Edward

[nnick]

Screaming Trees

[SRVTWO]

Pink Floyd
Arc Angels
Whit Lion (actually just Vito)

[Amotis]

The Dismemberment Plan

Took the words right out of my mouth.

I wanna see Galaxie 500 and Godspeed You! Black Emperor (yeah, I know, standard answer, right?) back, that would be cool.

[fusion58]

Humble Pie

[BIGGERSTAFF]

Cry of Love
Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies
Brother Cane

All excellent bands. Sweet Vine and Big Wreck are a few others that were fantastic.

[Red Suede]

Probably my favorite instrumental jazz rock unit was the band Stanley Clarke assembled for his second release: Stanley, bass; Jan Hammer, keyboards; Bill Connors, guitar; Tony Williams, drums. Changed my whole perspective of instrumental electric music. Next would have to be the band Bruford got for "One of a Kind" Bruford, drums; Dave Stewart, keyboards; Allan Holdsworth, guitar; Jeff Berlin, drums. Outstanding!

[mcknigs]

2 pages without anyone saying "the Beatles?" Perhaps everyone understood the premise to be that no band reformations would require members coming back from the dead. But, wait, I did see Humble Pie in there...

-Scott

[Jet Age Eric]

Ride - some of the true pioneers of psychedelic Brit-pop movement


YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!! One of the best live bands I've ever seen (second only to the Who?)! Ride and Phish on the same list? You've stumped me, my friend. -E

[Jet Age Eric]

Material Issue

Jim Ellison is dead.

To all the Jellyfish people: There's an article on them in the current Magnet. There won't be a reunion. -E

however, since I got to see The Feelies again recently, I will gladly settle for that.

Cheers,

Edward

[eBay]

There's only one band that I wish I could resurrect--The Jimi Hendrix Experience. I even had this crazy dream last week that I woke up and I was back in the 60's and the Experience was coming to town. All I had was ATM's, Credit Cards and current money in my wallet and I went into a frenzy to try to get to the concert without blowing my cover. It was a nightmare. When I woke up I was in full on freak out thinking it was really happening and I was going to miss the concert. I was scheming about how to get inside the entourage with my futuristic knowledge and was considering lying about giving Jimi a message from Buddy Miles. The message was a quote from the Electric Ladyland DVD that would have got me in but I'd have to play it off right not to give away where I was from and that I didn't really know Buddy personally.

I spent the entire morning thinking about how I would come up some quick cash if i was suddenly transported back in time without any resources. Yeah, we all could make a fortune over time but how do you come up with a couple of grand instantaneously for travel and living expenses?

[madaxeman]

Riverdogs w/ Vivian Campbell :hide

Chicago w/ Terry Kath (RIP)
Wow, I did not think anyone else out there knew about that band. I think Vivian has made enough dough in Def Leppard to go back to actually playing and quit the pop music thing.For me it would have to be the original UFO lineup sane and sober.I believe that's really probably asking too much.

[mr tom]

Georgia Satellites with Dan Baird

Trip ShakespeareNow there's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

[mailman]

"Eden's Children"...granted they were only a local Boston-based band who only produced 2 albums back in the mid-psychedelic-60's, but to this day I am still amazed at the efforts these 3 talented musicians offered.

I didn`t think ANYONE else knew the Beat Farmers. I really miss them. Saw them a bunch, the last time being a few weeks before Dick died.
Other bands:
Riot
Mother Love Bone
Xenon
Thin Lizzy

[Caretaker]

TT Quick
Yeah, and Edgar Cayce, Big Richard and Prophet. Phantom`s Opera. All Jersey. All great. And Cities from SI. I`d love to see an original Overkill reunion too.

[Born2Blues67]

I didn`t think ANYONE else knew the Beat Farmers. I really miss them. Saw them a bunch, the last time being a few weeks before Dick died.
Other bands:
Riot
Mother Love Bone
Xenon
Thin Lizzy

My vote would be Sunny Day Real Estate. As far as Mother Love Bone is
concerned,that would be a pretty tall order.

[sugarlou]

Quick is playing at Starland in December w/ E-Rock on drums...also on the bill Kings X and Skids

[sugarlou]

Oh how 'bout The Good Rats!

[P90Nut]

Cry of Love
Captain Beyond

[teanett]

The Shaggs

[Ken Ho]

Only one I can think of where all members are still alive:

Soundgarden


And yet, Matt Cameron is unlikely to give up his 10 yr membership of Pearl Jam or his jazz side-project to do that.

[A-Bone]

It never occurred to me to list bands with dead members. If that's the case, then I would love the chance to see Joy Division live. Ian Curtis died (and the band folded) when I was nine years old.
