I will play the synthesizers, and I move that we name the band Socialist Space Admirals Club For Great Victory.

I'll bring some banjo, and try to write songs with titles like, "Living Harmoniously is Plenty of Fun".

"We are happiest when we pick apples."

"Dearest Comrades! Let's turn Seattle into a glowing pile of embers!"

"I admit my revisionist errors, baby."

I'll play tambourine if I can also smuggle in a camera to take pics of that aborted hotel that towers over the country.

I am your wholesome yet sexy chick singer. Let the great proletariat revolution of Kim Jong Il be our guide! Food and electricity are the opium of the people!

Directly from the linked website:

HEY, AMERICANS, YOU SHOULD LEARN A LOT FROM OUR NORWEGIAN FRIENDS WHO ARE HAVING REALLY GOOD TIME WITH NORTH KOREAN YOUNG SCHOOL BOYS.

Does something just seem a little off about that statement to you?

I'll bring my banjo and...
What, the banjo position's already been taken? I'll bet he can't really play. How many teeth does he have?

I can play rhythm guitar, maybe a little lead. But I'm concerned about taking my tube amp. It's not like they're going to have Fender tweeds you can just rent there, right?

I play a mean bongo.

lekvar, even discounting the vast number of teeth that crowd my mouth, I'm willing to bet that you're far better than me on the banjo. I openly admit my nature as a banjo-dilettante. Howsabout me on rhythm and you on lead?
