My Dream Girl Band

Faith

My husband has a real knack for making up games, including “Thimble,” “Top Fives,” and “”Dream Band.”

Dream Band is a game where we both create an imaginary band with musicians from past and present.  I’ve decided to take some liberties with Dream Band for skirt! purposes, and have created a Dream Girl Band.  Meet the members:

Lead Vocals – Ann Wilson.  Three words: Crazy. On. You.

Lead Guitar/Backing vocals – Joan Jett.  I mean, seriously.  The woman loves rock n roll. 

Rhythm Guitar/Backing Vocals – KT Tunstall.KT is my rock n roll hero(ine).

Keys – Sara Bareilles.  She got soul.

Bass - Want to be my girl bassist?  PLEASE APPLY.  I can’t find any.

Drums – Georgia Hubleyof Yo La Tengo. This lady’s been keeping it real for years.

Ok, now it’s your turn.  Who’s a part of your Dream Girl Band?  And why don’t girls play the bass?
