Was having this discussion the other day in the pub, who would be in your ideal group?
For me it would have to be:
Liam Gallagher - Vocals (but would have to be 1996ish)
John Entwistle - Bass
Johnny Marr - Lead guitar
Graham Coxon - Rhythm guitar
Reni - Drums
and of course me playing tambourine or something in the background.

Legend tells that Moon was quietly standing in the lobby of a mid-western American hotel, with his portable cassette player blasting out some of the Who's latest work. After a few minutes of this sound onslaught, the normally crowded lobby had become practically deserted. It was at this point that the hotel manager emphatically asked Keith to turn the "noise" down to a respectable level. In disdain for one not attuned to his musical tastes, Moon kept right on playing his tape at ear-splitting levels. This prompted another plea from the manger, again begging that the "noise" be turned off. This dialogue continued unabated for the next few minutes until the hotel representative warned that if Keith did not turn the machine off at once he would be forced to summon the police. At these ominous words Moon mad an agreement with the manager. He said that he would go back to his room if the official would accompany him. While this request seemed somewhat strange, it was quickly agreed upon, and the two journeyed up to Keith's ninth floor abode. Upon reaching his room, Moon signaled that the man should wait a moment outside the door while Keith went inside. After about two minutes Moon reemerged, followed closely by a loud dynamite explosion emanating from his bathroom. As smoke began to fill the hallway, Moon turned to the horrified manager and calmly explained, "That my friend is noise. This on the other hand," as he again turned on his cassette player, "is the Who."

Yeah, the man was a lunatic. Have you seen the recent documentary? Amazing Journey I think it's called. It's fantastic viewing, really enjoyed it. It's on BBC4 occasionally and you can probably get it for a tenner, I really recommend it.

Quick google and it's called Amazing Journey: The Story of the Who.
Here's the trailer:
And on a similar subject I'd recommend you watch "The Seven Ages of Rock" that was on a few years ago, I think you can get it on a torrent. Covers everything from Hendrix to The Libertines and all the best bits on the way. Every minute is brilliant.
