LOL.
Seriuosly,I've never heard of a guitar based orchestra.It's always violins and stuff.I wonder how such an orchestra would sound like,you know,different electrics playing thro' all sorts of amps to produce all sorts of sounds,different effects(effects here being stuff like reverb and chorus,etc,etd,ete)acoustics,what and have you,with them playing sometimes together,sometimes differnt parts,blah blah blah.
Just wondering.
My ideal lineup:
Drums-one set,one person.
Bass-one
The guitars are a bit tricky,coz I can't quite choose between one electric and one acoustic,or two electrics.and how about a classical?Maybe depending on the song itself.Either way,both guitars can alternate between rythm and lead,both players are good enough to do whatever.
And everyone sings.Not necessarily to the same degree,but everyone sings.I guess the main singing parts fall to the guitarists,in view of the way a band is normally set up on stage,but everyone sings.
Keyboards will be like the classical.It will depend on the song,and they'll be played by one of us.
