As a bass player I wouldn't want to be in the blockheads, the who, the stranglers or the Beatles. Their bass players are quite good enough.

I think I'd be more than a match for Bill Wynman in the Stones though.

Otherwise HP Lovercraft, or Moby Grape, or Caravan or Pink Floyd circa 1968.

RIP Richard the drummer who ran a pub in town. Part of the reason I agreed to move to Fav in 89 was that the church field where they lived in a tent at one time is nearby, and Canterbury is down the road (too expensive at the time, and the trains change at Faversham) the sky here is often grey and pink

For me, there are lots of lovely bands I'd have loved to have been in. Just to be good enough to be in Steely Dan...

I guess it would have been nice to have been Mick Hucknell for all the shagging.

But the winner has to be:

Hawkwind in their Glory Years between 1971 and 1973.

I don't suppose I would still be alive of course but to have played on Space Ritual...

And you would have had the chance to be chums with Stacia :cheery:

It's not just you, they were very good. I liked them .... and I hate nearly everything.

Led Zepplin or the Beatles either would be FAB

But you would certainly been a bit mutton.

Tubeway Army for me...

Velvet Underground for the New York scene, Faces for the craic, Led Zeppelin for the excess.

The harmonies would also take a hammering. They’d put me in non singing role with a tambourine I fear.

They might have digitally enhanced your vocals

Apparently RC was a grumpy landlord. He was however an unique and very good drummer. Mrs Zef and I were lucky enough to see one of his last performances with the band at the old Market in2005. Our son was brewing (6months) at the time, apparently he stirred and,kicked from within that evening, and is now a 13 year old, accomplished grade 6 drummer.

I believe that Dik Mik had that privilege back in the day; She would probably have been up for it but given the amount of drug consumption which Hawkwind membership required I doubt if I would have been. :smokin:

Standing a few feet from Stacia during the Space Ritual tour was enough for me.

His missus didn't like him behind the bar....a bit of a thirst. I last saw him play in Canterbury, probably same sort of time. In person, in the supermarket just before he died.

A drummer in the family. May I recommend these
