Hmmmm John from US Royalty, he is actually cute under all that facial hair
Every guy with a beard and a guitar ever? I'm not proud; it's just true.
N'Sync for the rest of my life, duh. I'd give it all away for a night with all of them, especially Joey Fatone. Now I just need a time machine.
Michelle Phillips from the Mamas and the Papas cause she's the only one still here.
Deer Tick is the ultimate party band. Crazy on and off stage.
ultimate band crush? justin of the funky ozomatli. played a halloween show in 2009 that turned me into a new woman. walked in as david bowie, walked out as carmen miranda. ozo!
FYI There is also an opportunity to win free tickets on the Green Label Sound Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/GreenLabelSound
da hell is a band party crush
Easy, Soulwax, Faithless, and Goose all under one roof, would make my brains explode!
Best band crush: Fleetwood Mac
Supporting evidence:
-The band has had more people join and quit than a cult, including one member who quit to join a cult
- Silver foxiness (see: Buckingham, Lindsey)
- Stevie Nicks' hair/headware
-"I Know I'm Not Wrong"
-There is not a musical created around their catalogue of songs
Kan I go C the show pleaz?
My ultimate band party crush would have to be Cat Power. Ever since my brother introduced me to the music, I've had a secret crush on Charlyn. Her music and playing is amazing and it helps that she's hot too.
I'd have to go with Cat Power. Her playing is amazing and it helps that she's hot too. Charlyn is just a great musician overall.
every member of the dismemberment plan. so fun
Well this is a hard one because my first-round pick is obviously Dave 1.
I’ll pick Cut Copy because --
1. They’ve got that danceable Chromeo-like sound.
2. They’ve got hair-shag that would make Justin Bieber tremble in adolescent fear.
3. Australian accents are hot, mate.
Earth, Wind and Fire! I listen to their music growing up. I say some videos of their concerts back in the days, and I was like Whoa! I grew up in the wrong time. Those shows were off the chain, and I definitely wanted to be front row went that happens.
I used to be OBSESSED with yellowcard, specifically, a huge band crush on Sean and his violin. The way he would jump around on stage while managing to play sick beats just melted my heart. I used to go to every show that was in my area when they were on tour, and always managed to push my way to the front.
I would say now, I am obsessed with Mumford and Sons and would LOVE to see them. The few videos I have seen show that they would definitely bring the party. And they totally rock the messy, plaid, euro style, which is always a plus!
henry rollins, for fuck's sake! cat power...? c'mon yall we're partying!
totally, unquestionably, annie clark (st. vincent)
saw her at 930 and she forgot the words to nico's "these days" in the middle of the song, and had to stop and apologize, which was the cutest thing of all time
I almost said Ke$ha, you know, as a joke. But even as a joke, NOT FUNNY OR FUN.
So I will have to go with the honest to god truth: Pharrell. Because he is hot hot hot and seems totes fun.
James Brown! With Robyn as opening act. Throw in Parliament too.
Even though I'm a straight girl...I find female bands have BIG crush appeal for me:
Bikini Kill, Sleater Kinney, Von Ivy, The Bangles, The Go-go's, En Vogue....
There's just something about women commanding the stage, throw in a mini skirt and dripping sweat...
CRUSH CRUSH CRUSH!!!
Was I supposed to pick only one? Oops!
2 words: la roux!!!! i'm not ashamed to say i have a HUGE girl crush on elly jackson! her voice, her style, her "dancing". plus their show at the 930 club last november was fantastic!
in other news, vampire weekend, weezer and little dragon would all be runner ups, respectively
Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees. C'Mon the Bee Gees were Chromeo of the 70's. Just listen to their disco era songs.
Ok, disco kinda is an acquired taste, but watch this and they not to swoon
Also note how hipsters totally ripped off their hairstyles and facial hair from the Bee Gees.
Lawrence Welk because if he was alive today he and his champagne music would be poppin cristal with diddy
This is tough one but I'd definitely have to answer Kevin Barnes, the lead singer of Of Montreal. I don't care if he is straight, gay, or wears some crazy flamboyant outfit - he can pull it off like no other man can & I will forever have a crush on him after seeing them perform at the 9:30 club. The whole band puts on such a insane - crazy - fun - awesome - outofthisworld show, when I think of party band they immediately jump to my mind. Hes got the looks, the talent, the boundless creativity...he's probably taken already. And if you don't think Kevin Barnes is insanely good looking *said in that Zoolander voice*(with or without a crazy amount of make up on), you need to get your eyes checked...
Dave Nada, moombahton anyone?
