Top 5 musicians you would love to have a drink with.

If you could meet five different musicians (dead or alive) and have a pint or cup of coffee with, who would they be? You can also say why and what drink you would like to have and where!

Joey Ramone- a beer anywhere in NYC
Ray Davies- a beer at a pub in north London. Maybe The Clissold Arms?
Robert Smith- a beer in Crawley, England.
Bob Dylan- a whiskey at the White Horse Tavern in NY
David Bowie- milk and a red pepper in Berlin

 

1. Janis Joplin - whatever she was drinking on the train of Festival Express!
2. Siouxsie Sioux
3. Lou Reed
4. Leonard Cohen
5. Billie Holiday

 

Paul Kelly
Brian Johnson

2. Grace Slick

4. Peter Gabriel

Does actually smoking weed backstage with George Clinton, Garry Shider, (RIP), & Belita Woods, (also RIP), of P Funk count?

 

Braxton doesn't strike me as a Guinness man.

 

Even if I'm paying??!!?

 

Tom Waits
Alex Lifeson
Ian Mosley
Adrian Belew
Bruce Dickinson. Yes THE bruce Dickinson.

 

Ha. Yeah but I think you would be better off buying him a Guinness in Dublin.

 

Keith Moon
Jim Morrison
Shane MacGowan
Chuck Berry
Ozzy Osbourne

If you’re going to do it, might as well go all the way

Well lets see I did drink with BB King one time in Dallas during 1983 when he performed at a bar I owned, so let's see, for me...

1.Miles Davis...had to be the heaviest cat ever to hang out with

2.Andrew Loog Oldham...much more interesting than those he worked with including the Stones

3.David Thomas of Pere Ubu..at this time I doubt either of us would consume alcohol nowadays but I could tell him that Miles Davis, Bobby Dylan & the Ubu family are the only 3 artists that have truly mattered to me in the past 4 -5+ decades

4.Al Green...although he has been a ordained minister since 1978 we would still have a lot to wrap about including Scripture

5.John Ono...through PT radio employment & friends I met George & Ringo during the mid 1970s & 1988 just sorry I didn't get to meet my favorite activist & Beatle also

 

If so count me in for Eric Burdon (twice!)

 

Wayne Coyne
Frank Zappa
Ozzy Osbourne (He could drink club soda)
Tom Waits
Lou Reed

 

Billy Joel.
I can't stand his music, but we do share religious non-beliefs.


Oh, and the Christie Brinkley thing.

Dude!!!
