Subject: 3-person bands… From: GUEST,xaliasslayer Date: 29 Sep 02 - 11:12 AM …I was thinking about how many great bands there have been out there with only three players. It would be kind of fun to see how many 3-member bands people could name. |

Subject: RE: BS: 3-person bands… From: GUEST,Peter from Essex Date: 29 Sep 02 - 05:57 PM Trios are pretty standard on the Cajun scene. For English folk bands (as opposed to purely vocal groups) the Bismarks are one (or should that be three) of the best. . |

Subject: RE: BS: 3-person bands… From: YOR Date: 29 Sep 02 - 06:12 PM Hey X (Again), I replied to you on that other forum. Here it is again. Hey X, Bryan Adams has toured the last couple of years with only 3 members. (His last studio effort is another story.) I'm not really sure why or what happen to the rest of the regular band members! Adams has taken over base, Keith Scott on lead and Mickey Curry on drums. I bought the DVD "Bryan Adams, Live at Slane Castle, Ireland 2000" with this group configuration and it is great, !!Loud!! Adams as always!. Funky all white outfits for all 3 band members. Take it easy, Roy ------------- Man! I must be brain dead, didn't even thunk of PP&M or The Police. Go Figure. X join up here (others have), that other forum is crashing and burning because of too strong of opinions. Think like me or don't think just don't work. Forums of one don't work, Go figure! Enjoy, Roy

Subject: RE: BS: 3-person bands… From: GUEST Date: 29 Sep 02 - 07:36 PM Fat Bas**rd, your mention of the Big 3 is atirring faint memories. Did these guys all play these funny shaped Gibsons, and was the bass player/singer called Johnny Gustafson? I think I saw them in Edinburgh when I was young .... Murray |

Subject: RE: BS: 3-person bands… From: Cappuccino Date: 30 Sep 02 - 03:09 AM I've always reckoned a trio is the most cost-effective band - you cover lead and rhythm sections adequately, but get the fee for a full band, and so get the best share of the money per head. Give me a trio any day! - Ian B |

Subject: RE: BS: 3-person bands… From: GUEST,Fat B****rd Date: 30 Sep 02 - 06:11 AM Hello, Guest Murray. The Big Three had a guitarist who played what I believe was an Antoria. Most unusual, as at the time Gibsons and Fenders seemed obligatory.There are a number of Merseybeat websites if you want to know more. All the best from the fB. |
