Which band, alive or dead, would you choose and why? This is a tough one for me. It would be even tougher if I didn't narrow the choices down to "Rock God". For example, Michael Jackson isn't a Rock God (he's more of a Pop King), but I'd pick him just for shock value - just to see how weird that guys day really is. But for serious Rock legends, I'd pick someone interesting like Jimmy Page. The man owns his own castle, I rest my case. Eric Clapton and Curt Cobain also come to mind.
