...In the world of prog?

I would personally have Petrucci's Guitar technique and mr wakemans keyboard technique mixed with Neal Morses songwriting technique and Omar Rodriguez lyrical skill...

Blimey, you don't want much Lindsay!

I'd settle for being able to play the piano like Keith Emerson.

I would definately be Rick Wakeman - he's such a pimp  plus he's the most attractive member of Yes by far!

I'd say Tony Levin. From all interviews, his website and book, he seems very happy.

He loves to play bass and he gets to play bass for a living. Add to that being respected enough to play with so many. Then there's the bonus of travelling the world.

Plus... I want to play a stick. I'm going to buy one as soon as I can justify the expense and convince my wife that it's a good idea to purchase a stick... and amps to go with it.

I used to envy people like Jon Anderson because of his ability to come up with fantastic melody-lines. 

These days I'm cool with it.

I would like to be THE MANAGER of Magma, or a record label owner. In fact, if I were the owner of a prog record company, I would use my contacts to find out the phone number of Adrian Bellew. And I would call him everyday to make him work a lot, just for fun.
