Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth, Bloodbath): Rhythm Guitars, Death Vocals
Adrian Belew (King Crimson, Zappa): Lead & Rhythm Guitars
Sam Totman (DragonForce): Lead Guitars, Backing Vocals
Tony Banks (Genesis): Keyboards, Piano, Organ, Synthesizers
Kevin Moore (Dream Theater, OSI): Keyboards, Piano, Organ, Synthesizers

I think its pretty funny having Tony Banks and Phil Collins in a band with Mikael Akerfeldt doing death vocals. Imagine hearing Mikael singing "Sssudio" and growling. LOL

I'd try this lineup:

John Wetton - Bass/Vocals
Geoff Downes - Keyboards
Steve Howe - Guitars
Carl Palmer - Drums

Only this time, have them sound something like a combination of Yes, ELP, and King Crimson, instead of sounding like music from a Mentos commercial!

Not sure if Zach Hill would be the right choice for that line up but it would be interesting.




Damn, that would have sounded very interesting, just add a saxophone player or violinist ala Ponty.

Mike O's vocals would be a great thing for Leaves Eyes.
