Subject: Who would be in your All-Star 80s band?
I'm sure this will get about as many variations as it will posts, so it should be interesting. There is no wrong answer, just looking for your personal favorites! Since the 80s were so diverse, I made 2 bands. One band for the more harder rocking bands, one for more of the new wave/ techno /pop bands. Here goes...
Rock 8)
Lead Vocals - Steve Perry (Journey)
Lead Guitar - Eddie Van Halen (Van Halen)
Bass Guitar - John Deacon (Queen)
Drums - Neal Peart (Rush)
Keyboards /Piano - Dave Bryan (Bon Jovi)
Pop :D
Lead Vocals - Bryan Ferry (Roxy Music)
Lead Guitar - Elliott Easton (The Cars)
Bass Guitar - Mike Mills (REM)
Keyboards - Nick Rhodes (Duran Duran)
Drums - Jon Farriss (INXS)
Subject: Re: Who would be in your All-Star 80s band?
OK, here's mine:
Vocals - David Gahan
Keyboards - Vince Clarke
Keyboards/Backing Vocals - Martin L. Gore
Keyboards/Effects - Andrew Fletcher
I'd call them Depeche Mode and their only album would be called Speak & Spell.
Or...
Vocals/Guitar - Robert Smith
Pick three or four more random people of your choice. I'd call them The Cure.
;D

Phil on drums and vocals? Martin on keyboards/guitar/vocals? Bob's dead, but if he were alive...vocals? And Neil on vocals too? Interesting....:D
I had another idea. You could have Vince Clarke, Feargal Sharkey, Andy Bell and Alison Moyet and call them The Yazerasure Assembly. :) (Yazooerasure doesn't sound as good.)

Lead Vocals/Bass - Geddy Lee (Rush)
Guitar - Alex Lifeson (Rush)
Guitar - Phil Collen (Def Leppard)
Drums - Rick Allen (Def Leppard)
Okay...so it's basically a mix of Def Leppard and Rush. But if I could've included the 70s, it would've been a little more diverse
