ultimate prog band

if you could make a band of prog legends and put them into one band what would it be? and don't over lap bands like for example mike portnoy couldn't be in a band with john myung

here's mine

Guitar: Arjen lucassen(ayreon,Star one)
Drums: mike portnoy(dream theater)
Vocals: neal morse(spocks beard)
keyboards: jens johanassan(stratovarius)
Bass:tony levin(king crimson)

i thought this would be an intresting band

I'm always a sucker for these threads, no matter how beaten up the concept is, so:

Peter Hamill - keyboards, vocals
Steve Hackett - guitars
Richard Sinclair - bass, additional vocals
Bill Bruford - drums

Jan Transit, Christer Cederberg, Chuck Schuldiner(forget about him being dead, CC now plays in a gothic rock band, so it would make as much sense to reject him for the same reason), Skoll, Mirai, Mia, Forbes and Giuseppe Orlando would make an excellent band of musicians, not sure about the written music though.

And again here we go:

tuxon; looks like you've had your list for years

and another-

Daniel Denis, Kurt Rongey, Jonas Hellborg, Brian May.

I think that this might make for an interesting band:

• Greg Lake - Vocals, Bass & Guitars
• Andy Latimer - Vocals, Guitars & flute
• Chick Corea - Piano & Electric Piano
• Neil Peart - Drums & Percussion

It would combine the relaxing, clear vocals of Greg Lake and Andy Latimer, the catchy, driving drum beats of Neil Peart, the steady, rumbling bass of Greg lake, the complex, soaring guitar melodies of Andy Latimer, and the flowing, wild keys of Chick Corea to create an Art Rock band with Symphonic Prog and Jazz-Rock tendancies. IT WOULD BE AMAZING. Too bad it won't ever happen.
