Why ask a question and then give us 50+ options/answers in the process ?
Are we too dumb to make our own educated responses

He wants us to make a band like Lari did rather than name left handed guitarists.. I was confused at first too.

Iggy Pop and Justin Bieber on the same band would be just as awesome.
Whatever you choose, as long as you have Justin Bieber in it, it's all good.

Ok, here's my lefty lineup:
Iggy Pop - Lead Vox and Stage Damage Jon Oliva - Keyboard w/ Occasional Lead Vox Klaus Eichstadt (Ugly Kid Joe) - Guitar Eef Barzelay (Clem Snide) - Guitar Paul McCartney - Bass Mark Jackson (VNV Nation) - Drums
I went for maximum "WTF?" factor here. I wanted a band that would mash together all kinds of sounds that shouldn't go, but with enough talented people on deck that it was bound to at least be listenable.

I had no idea some of those people were lefties... I'm a lefty but I play right-handed guitars, I think it's easier to have the dominant hand on the fret board...

Jon Oliva, Dan Swano and Justin Bieber in a vocal group.
Their first single would be the cover of Step by Step
