What would be the best band?

DRUMS - Keith Moon (The Who). Keith is commonly known as the innovator of drums, which, up until him, were only used as a back beat, not a necessity for songs. Moon changed that, and made them need to be used in rock music. He is also known for quick, cascading rolls across the toms and cymbals. Don't believe me? Listen to 'Won't Get Fooled Again', and then we'll talk.

 

I definitely don't mean this personally, but Keith Moon might be one of the most overrated drummers of all time. He was good, but he was not an innovator. Moon carried around his double bass set, but rarely played the second bass drum. I don't really want to start a drummer war here, but Bonham could do more on a single kick than Moon could do with two. I've been listening to classic rock for my entire life and I come from a line of drummers that stretches back to the 30s. I'd put Keith Moon behind Bonham, Peart, Paice, and Baker. 5th best in his genre.

 

 

 

Yes, I know that Keith Moon isn't as good as Neil Peart, and would get beaten in 2 seconds if he was in a drum war against Bonham, but I believe that Moon has an original sound, and that not many other drummers have that same sound. Now, I respect what other drummers have done for rock music, but, in my band, Keith Moon would be on drums. Yes, he may not be the best, but so what?

He was definitely not an "innovator" of the drums as you say though. Go watch Buddy Rich or Gene Krupa and you'll see where Moon and every other drummer of the 60s and 70s got their style from.

Back-up vocals/bass - Porter Mcknight. Srsly.

Rhythm guitar - Travis Miguel

 

 

 

They certainly look familiar when they're altogether.

 

 

 

Now let's have it for real.

 

 

 

Metal(core):

 

 

 

Vocals - Matt Tuck

 

Lead Guitar - Dan Jacobs

 

Bass/backup vocals - Porter Mcknight, John Moyer, or Jason James

 

Drums - Bonzo or Brandon Saller. Thing about Saller though is that I've heard him sing, haven't heard Bonzo. So Brandon could probably pull off the choruses.

Yeah man, they were basically brothers. Dimebag had Zakk's bullzeye design tattooed on his forearm and everything. Considering they're both very over-the-top guitarists, had they collaborated I'm certain they would've created some amazing pieces of art. Me and my friends have discussed this in detail. :P
