Bono actually strums along on many tunes when U2 play live. Same thing for Freddie Mercury. Both of them are 4-piece bands, but the lead singer occasionally plays some acoustic to fill in. I've actually seen Robert Plant (Zeppelin) and Roger Daltrey (The Who) strum an acoustic guitar now and then on stage, but I never saw Plant do that while with Zeppelin, just in later years.

Just thought of a couple others:

Jimi Hendrix
Cream

I was the 1st guy to get Fly By Night when it came out.
My straight as an arrow buddy was a devote Beatles fan. Thats as hard rock as he got.
He road shotgun cruise'n-street racing my 68 FB that Friday night with that, Nugent, and a few other rockers blar'n thru 4 new Jensen 6x9 coaxial's.
He's been a Rush nut ever since.

I remember getting 2112 when I was a teen. Lakeside park is a 5 min drive from my house. Me and Neil Peart went to the same highschool.

2112 nearly cost me another two sets of 6x9's in the FB. Maybe some hearing too...
One night my same buddy and i got back after 1 am from street racing and fell asleep in the driveway listening to it.
The windows where up cause it was cold out.
My dad came out and tapped on the window madder then heck. It woke him.
His closed bedroom window was 40' away

Mike, that's classic !! If you can sleep through that. I guess it's possible to sleep through a fire alarm now.

Not too me............I've gotta' pick and choose particular songs I can get into. All of the old **** is THE best, anything up to around early 90's. "Steely" music of thier past is what I prefer most.

Stilll the best 3 person operation ever though to ever rock!

Working man was a great old tune. I see there was an original shot with Pete Best when he was their drummer.
