Chick Corea
Mike Keneally

[fragility]

Cynic

[hatori]

Perhaps I could job share this with the Steely Dan gig

[Monz]

The Specials, Bad Manners or UB40 would have done me fine

[doctorbass]

The Fabulous Thunderbirds in the early days.

[retroman]

I would most love to work with ex The Obsessed, St Vitus, Spirit Caravan, The Hidden Hand doom legend "Wino"

[quote name='jimijimmi' post='608615' date='Sep 25 2009, 01:30 PM']1.Girls aloud

2.Whitesnake

3.Slade

4.Frankie Miller's Full house band

5.The Who

and as a one off "Beyonce"

obviously non of the above would ever happen..altho,ive came close to 2 of them! :-)[/quote]

I'm guessing you may have been on the list for Pino's gig?

That "one off job" is a whole different list

Had to look them up in case it was just a comment on a previous post
Nice to see you Frag, Are you well?

[NickH]

Red Hot Chili Peppers, not including this Stadium Arcadium shenanigans
Dire Straits, back in the day. Think the management would provide a bouffant curly wig?

And, of course.... WYLD STALLYNS!

[quote name='William James Easton' post='608299' date='Sep 25 2009, 07:55 AM']decent debut/YOT covering period or sh!te techno girl pants/funk/jazz + side project era?[/quote]
Both albums. Side projects don't count as they are not Glassjaw. If I had to pick one 'era' though, EYEWTKAS everytime. Though I'm super stoked by their new song.

[ezbass]

Robben Ford & The Blue Line
Steely Dan
John Mayer Trio (just to work with Steve Jordan)
Peter Gabriel Band
Tower Of Power
Average White Band

Hmm methinks I've just listed bands that simply feature my favourite bassists (with one exception)

[NoLogic69]

"The Stone Roses", would have been cool!

Then again, I would imagine being in "The Beatles" or "The Stones" would have been pretty cool as well !!

Present day, I love being in "Kontiki Suite", but if I had to pick another band, "The Quarter After" from LA.

[lonestar]

Nearly Dan

p.s Anyone know Pete Academy's regular route home, alone, late at night along a deserted street, with no witnesses around perhaps?

He's playing our local (if they fix teh noise problem0 in a few weeks .. Want me to take him out*

[EBS_freak]

ALO - Time Expander era. (they went all commercial after that. still good, but not the same...)

The first three tracks on that album never fail to knock me out for the killer grooves... and to work with that drummer... wow.

Probably my favourite not overly famous band.

[WHUFC BASS]

[quote name='Moonstomper' post='608349' date='Sep 25 2009, 09:09 AM']Mmmmm 4 Skins maybe but I wouldn't want to argue with Hoxton Tom, even now![/quote]

I was talking to him the other night as it goes. A real gent and a real good laugh too. He's got some really interesting stories from way back when.

[beerdragon]

Captain Beefheart with Ry Cooder on Guitar.

[teej]

Playing the Cotton Club with Cab Calloway would have been pretty cool.

Great music, but the job's only for those who are happy to rehearse locked away in a shack for weeks on end and subjected to various insane restrictions/conditions - if I remember right...

[Linus27]

Very Old Band - Supertramp, The Doors

Modern Band - Simple Minds, U2

New Band - Company of Thieves, Foo Fighters, Natalie Imbruglia, Paramore

Just make him an offer he can't refuse. For starters perhaps a dismembered Roscoe headstock in the bed type of thing. badda bang badda bing.

You'll enjoy the gig they're very good.

Deep pan or thin crust?
Mike
