Gastric Band

Been a lot of talk about gastric bands recently so I was trying to put together the ultimate Gastric Band so, Barry White on keyboards, Leslie West on guitar. McCartney's drummer on drums (surprisingly). Meat Loaf on lead vocals. Can't think of a bass player and I'm sure there are numerous alternatives to the aforementioned. Any ideas anybody?

Lead singer

from Ultrasound. Big lad. Sponsored by Atora I believe. Friends called him Tiny (GSOH).

John Popper

from Blues Traveller on (quite the most accomplished) mouth organ you will ever hear.

Lead Singer

Just thought of another one. The lead singer of Bad Manners.

Are we seeking people with gastric bands.....

...or those that could, arguably, benefit from one?

Retropath2 | 18 June 2008 - 2:26pm

Clarification

That's a good point. I think people who could benefit from one as we may open ourselves up to libel claims if we wrongly accuse somebody (Sharon O*bour*e) cough cough.

And we would be open to claims of fattism,

which would be a heinous state of affairs, with aggrieved arbuckles writing in and saying how we wouldn't be saying that if their bulk were made up solely of ginger hair etc etc etc.

Nice work

aggrieved arbuckles - 10/10

I was going to post. . .

a shot of him in a Celtic shirt, but you'd all have to change your screen resolution. Big lad, top chops though.

Archie Valparaiso | 19 June 2008 - 7:22am

oddly

he has a second "ghostly face" hidden in his forehead.

somerville | 19 June 2008 - 10:31pm

How about Mammoth?

A whole band of hard rockin' fatties, lead by John McCoy (ex Gillan), famous(ish) for their song 'Fat Man'.

Bass Player

Michelle from the Magic Numbers.

Gatz | 18 June 2008 - 3:03pm

The fella from The Hives.....

Nicely rounded. Still sartorially elegant.

The "early" bass player in the Arctic Monkeys too. Before he was declared persona non grata - but of course, left on good terms!

John Waite | 18 June 2008 - 3:14pm

Greg Lake...

...is, shall we say, quite rotund these days! So there's your bass player!

JJ | 18 June 2008 - 3:39pm

This is disgraceful!!

Crosby and, coming up fast to pip him at the post, Stills.
