RE: A Shirt on Sunday: The White Stripes - 29/6/2002 - Glastonbury Festival
That's on my list to watch, as they're all fine players.
Of the duos that have followed, I quite like Black Keys but I do think yougenerally need two people playing melodic instruments when there's drum kit involved.
A guy I know hates power trios. Cream, Hendrix, Muse, any trio format. Not sure why, but he does.
I like Royal Blood who do magic with bass and drums. Another band whose album I bought after seeing them on Later. Saw them support Foo Fighters. Lots of trios I like including all those you mention.
Ah yes - Royal Blood aren't bad. Buffalode were a stoner/doom duo who were pretty good, but they split up this year.
I like the power trio format, but I've never liked Muse - they just don't do it for me, which is surprising. I think it's the keyboards, but then I like Nice/ELP.
Top trios would be Rush (not seen them live), Manics (although they tour as a 5-piece), Cream (but didn't enjoy them live) and of course Motorhead!
