FabSwingers.com forum: You are starting a band

What is your role in the band?

And more importantly what are you calling the band?

No need to play an instrument, this is the world of make believe. If you could play any instrument what would it be?

Can’t sing, can’t really play any instruments either. So either a roadie or a drummer.

I used to play in a couple of bands, bass guitar. I think I'd play bass again in a new band and call it Cannibal's Lunchbox.

"The power of yess

Lead guitarist playing an akkerman les paul

I saw a yes tribute band once upon a time. Halfway through the set I shouted to the lead guitarist "are you knackered man?" and he shouted back "no... I'm Jan Ackerman"!!!

I play guitar, so I'd obviously be the guitarist. We'd play incessantly happy, upbeat jangly pop music and I'd name us...

Depressed beyond tablets.
