Monsters of Rock Fantasy Thread

[mmrrname]

With the return of our favorite band, I thought it would be fun to assemble a dream line-up for a fantasy Monsters of Rock show. Here's what I came up with.

Van Halen
AC/DC
Iron Maiden
Foo Fighters
Motorhead
Black Crows
Steve Vai
Jack White
Reverend Horton Heat
Nashville Pussy
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Spinal Tap!

Moving to HOM forum....

Sorry, still learnin' the ropes . . .

[Satan]

Black Sabbath, assuming they get their shit straight with Bill, and Tony's physically capable of doing the gig.

Van Halen
AC/DC
Iron Maiden
Foo Fighters
Motorhead
Black Crows
Steve Vai
Jack White
Reverend Horton Heat
Nashville Pussy
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Spinal Tap!

Okay, I'll play along. Obviously my changes would also require changes in the lineup order. I don't wanna mess & figure that out tonight. VH at top. All others can be figured later. But it's a "dream" list right?

Drop Black Crows - Add Def Leppard

Drop Horton Heat - Add Motley Crue

Drop Jack White - Add Cheap Trick

Drop Nick Cave - Add Judas Priest

Drop Spinal Tap - Add Scorpions

Drop Nashville P - Add Ratt (yeah? fuck everyone. I said Ratt)



Yeah, so? I went for an 80's arena rock throwback thing. BFD. It's not for real anyways.

Out of bands who have recently brought out new albums:

Van Halen
Alice Cooper
Ki$$
Motorhead
Ratt
Accept

I'd leave it like that as I like the classic format of one stage.

[Dave's Bitch]

Ok so mine would go (in no particular order) something like

Guns N Roses
Motley Crue
Kiss
Van Halen
Alice Cooper
Megadeth
Judas Priest
Aerosmith
Wasp
Saxon
Motorhead

Or alternatively just paint the stage on the day of the show and watch it dry...

Aww Sesh, please don't spoil my dream by pointing out the obvious. I fucking LOVE(d) Def Leppard. But last I saw them was 1996 ish? I'd have to check. Was fucking horribly lame. Well, they did play Switch which was pretty cool.

I don't know man. They really lost any & all fire and drive. Sad because oh boy, in the 80's they would kick your ass & fuck your girlfriend & her mom under the stage while you were rocking out. Amazing band. Amazingly yawn now. But in my dream list they are on the Hysteria tour. (The first leg when they were still only playing 2 tunes from it and nearly playing Pyromania in full)



Will always be in my top 3 shows of all time;

November 20, 1987 - San Diego Sports Arena - Def Leppard / Hysteria - In The Round - SOLD OUT!

Based solely on the magic of that 1 night, they will always have a spot in any festival grandfathered & locked in. Like when a guy wins the Masters and has a lifetime invitation afterwards no matter how bad he gets. yes, Def Leppard is to rock what Greg Norman is to golf.

We would really need like a 3 day US Festival with VH headlining the final night. Just too many epic hard rock bands that would be fun to watch open up for the MIGHTY VAN HALEN. I want Lars Ulrich to pick all the brown M&M's out himself. Little cunt should eat em too...maybe put on a couple of needed pounds. Little fucker. hate that guy. I really do.

Sabbath would have been on my list had I not seen them at Ozzfest several years ago. Very disappointed. Marilyn Manson kicked their ass.
