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

Dave Stewart, Damon Che, Mike Rutherford, Alan Holdsworth (though Stewart and Holdsworth worked together-- hope I haven't broken the rules to much).

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
-------------
This is why you should let Robin save the day...

Hey, where is everyone? This is a good thread idea...it's fun to fantasize about and doesn't take long to write.
I'll give you another;
Terry Bozzio, Chris Squire, Don Airey and Chad Wackerman

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.

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.

Also, I just made this because I'm an idiot and I have no life:
I named them 'Nut' after the goddess of the sky from Ennead Mythology.
As you can see, the cover is a sort of play on the band name. Wow, I'm
a loser.
And yeah, I realize I suck at photoshop.
