The line up with Delp intrigues me. Would they be doing originals or covers?

Fuck Freddie. If you can get him to spit out all the dick in his mouth maybe, but until then, give me the King, Elvis.

Fuck Freddie?! Isn't that what got him into the best dead band poll to begin with?

"Elvis was a narc, in the rhinestones after dark.
He did his best to keep Memphis drug-free.
He knew every pill he'd eat, would be one less on the street. Elvis took them all for you and me."

i love elvis and everything and i live here in memphis but he had the strangest ways of rationalizing things.imagine elvis stoned to the gills on vicodin,placidyl,valium,etc. barely able to string together a coherent sentence and he is sitting there with his deputy badge and powers given to him by the memphis police and he is sitting there telling his bodyguards (memphis mafia) he wants to get all the evil drug pushers off the street because they are no good and deserve to rot in jail,lol.its sort of funny because he could be very hypocritical and his bodyguards all stated these stories at different times.hell he even threatened his bodyguards one time when the drug store was closed that he was going to buy a bunch of drug stores just so he could have his pills when he wanted them,whew.in his later years the man had a hell of a temper due to all the stuff he ingested.

Posted: **Sat Jan 12, 2008 7:23 pm**

my band would be....

elvis on vocals
bill black on bass
stevie ray vaughan on guitar
john bonham on drums

Posted: **Sun Jan 13, 2008 12:02 am**

Yeah, put The King in there. SRV too...Hendrix.
And don't forget John Lennon, or Johnny Cash...Bobby Darin, Dean Martin, Sinatra.
Maybe get Leiber & Stoller to do more writing...or at least, Brewer & Shipley.

later~

Holy shit! I like your lineup, although I might want Stevie Ray to sing and keep Mercury on keys.

I am very on board with this, except Keith Moon, not John Bonham.
Moonie can outdrum anyone, even Bonham.
