Sting on base. Also The Chilli Peppers could probably pull it off. ------------- |

Katche, but Neal Schon was in Journey when they were a Prog band, so that kinda disqualifies him from your list.

I took that into consideration; however, the man is such a great (yet underrated) guitarist and figured prog would welcome him back. E -------------

Chris Martin would fit perfectly if he played a more prog sound.

True, but he's played with more non Prog acts methinks. ------------- "Art is not imitation, nor is it something manufactured according to the wishes of instinct or good taste. It is a process of expression." -Merleau-Ponty |

This is a really tough call, but I'll have to go with Neal Schon only because he was in the original Journey along with fellow Santana mate Greg Rollie.
I give an "honorable mention" to Chris Martin, for the reason cited earlier in this poll: that Coldplay is approaching a more prog sound. ------------- "Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of one's own mind" * Ralph Waldo Emerson |

I´d say Mike McCready as he has a bit unconventional attitude ( I think) ------------- www.myspace.com/rasayanaband |

hmmm, I would like to see Mike McCready prog out!
I really enjoy Pearl Jam stuff, but Chris Martin............smug, whingey, irresponsible, selfish little git I would say. So if that could be prog, then yes, i agree with him also. P-C |

Oh yeah, I forgot, I actually voted for "other" that other being Roland Orzabal (Tears for Fears) I had to go check the archives to see if they were there, (they are not) If you don't believe how prog they are check out "Raoul and the kings of Spain" even the "sowing the Seeds" album............so prog!
Great stuff, really great! |

Someone mentioned RHCP, I think they could pull it off if they really tryed to do prog, but from the list I voted Dave Grohl, but for his drumming not his singing/guitar playing.

 He could do prog, maybe. But I wouldn't listen to anything by him. |

Carter Beauford is so good. A drummer who can play well in different times is so important for prog. Carter Beauford in a prog band would be awesome. ------------- [IMG]http://www.highergroundmusic.com/i/artists/umforiste.gif"> |

I finally got around to voting in my own poll. Good to see everyone enjoying it.
I voted for Carter Beauford, too. Definitely one of the best drummers to come along in a long time. Very dynamic style. E -------------

Schon. He's got the touch as he showed with early Journey. I also have the albums he did with Jan Hammer (Schon & Hammer), and those tend toward the prog side in the vein of Jeff Beck and Steve Morse. ------------- "Peace is the only battle worth waging." Albert Camus |
