well iron maiden have 3 guitarists (since they're album brave new world??) so any of their recent songs will work.

But you'll need a mental bassist and an awesome vocalist

Turbonegro!

Norwegian band with three guitarists. They call themselves punk rock, but it's not really punk.

Turbonegro has only 2 guitarists but they are funny and easy to play...

Posted by: erik Mar 28 2008, 11:28 PM

ah, you're right. I think they used to have three though..

Pearl Jam have 3 guitarists on a lot of songs. For example Rearviewmirror, I Am Mine, Green Disease, Spin The Black Circle.

Any band that uses harmony leads would be fine, Thin Lizzy, Maiden, even Blind Guardian would work Like this one guitar could play rhythm, while the other 2 could split the leads.

lol hmmm, as far as I remember we recorded more than 3 guitar tracks for that song... But when we play it live there are only 2 guitars, so it works

Posted by: Alex87 Apr 1 2008, 02:09 PM

Mostly of the Eagles songs are great for 3 guitars. Usually they have one acoustic or 12-string as rhytm and 2 lead doing very nice riffs, and fills. You should check out Hell Freezes Over DVD or Farewell One Tour DVD.

And +1 to Maiden, my alltime favorite band
