I don't know how many times this thread has been made before, but i'll give it a go. Basically, this is just a thread for people to voice their opinion on progs ultimate super group. You can select one guitarist, vocalist, drummer, bassist and keyboard player to be in your band. Here it goes:
Guitar- Dave Gilmour Bass- Chris Squire Vocals- Peter Gabriel Keyboards-Rick Wakeman Drums-Phil Collins ------------- Would you like to watch TV, or get between the sheets, or contemplate the silent freeway, would you like something to eat? |

I wonder if that band will ever happen. I think if i were to pick my ultimate band, it would have a different line up than the standard guitar, bass, drums, keys, vocals, but going with that formula i'd probably choose: keys: Keith Emerson drums: Bill Bruford guitar: Buckethead bass: Tony Levin vocals: Mike Patton |

I'd love to see how out there that band would be, particularly Buckethead, Emerson, and Patton. That's funny, because one of my friends said he saw a guy at a party dressed as Buckethead last week. |

I call it WTF: Fred Frith--Prepared guitar, communism Lemmy--Bass, facial hair Ian Anderson--Winds, vocals, lewd gestures involving a flute Mike Portnoy--Drumming all over everything, destroying subtlety, eating babies Edgar Froese--Sequencers, stage presence Mikael Akerfeldt--Growling, guitar Ravi Shankar--Sitar, spiritual guidance The Mascara Snake--Bass clarinet, being fast 'n' bulbous Brian Eno--Twisting knobs, pretending to contribute Robert Fripp--Guitar, making people quit -------------   |

"Mike Portnoy--Drumming all over everything, destroying subtlety, eating babies Brian Eno--Twisting knobs, pretending to contribute Robert Fripp--Guitar, making people quit"
A possible group for the 00's or the 10's:
Matthew Bellamy-Muse-Keyboards-Vocals
Steve Wilson-P.Tree-Guitar-Vocals
Alex Lifeson-Rush-Guitar
Mike Portnoy-Dream Theater-Drums
..................-............-Bass
Portnoy knows Wilson and neil peart and is a fan of muse
Wilson knows Lifeson
Bellamy Is A fan of P.Tree
Lifeson is a fan of P.Tree
On bass i don't know Not Lee the rythm section will be to rush like otherwise with lifeson too.
"Vocals/Guitar-Daniel Gildenlow
Keyboards-Tony Banks" Banks Keyboard's and Gildenlow guitar would sound very odd together.

My superband consists of these fantastic men:
Drums: Bonham, moon, if bonham are too drunk, phil collins if moon had been drinking with Bonham.
Bass: Macca, best ever!
Guitars: Page on lead and Townshend on rythm
Vocals: must be stevie winwood and Mariott, white boys that have more soul in there pinkies than the best black singers like: Otis Redding
My superprogband is the following:
Drums: collins
Bass: Chris Squire
Guitars: Gilmour and on acoustic Ian anderson could maybe have a flute battle with the vocalist: Peter Gabriel, though it would sound awful.
On the keyboard: Tony Banks, in my world the real heros of prog sit behind the keyboard!!!

Guitars: Robert Fripp
Bass: Tony Levin
Drums: Neil Peart
Music by Minnear and Fripp

Probably this type of thread don't hit the center of the objective because each says its without to want to deepen to the bottom that everything goes understood in a general speech of the Prog and done not report to a genre or ten year period.
In every case my particular band is impracticable since some musicians are dead... Or aren't more profits. But this is my band:
Vocals: Donella Del Monaco
Various Keyboards: Vangelis, Patrick Moraz, Rick Wakenan, Michele Bon, Vincent Crane, Flavio Premoli, Vittorio & Gianni Nocenzi
Guitars: Eric Clapton, Steve Morse, John Du Cann
Violin: Darryl Way
Trumpet: Miles Davis
Bass: Jaco Pastorius, Bob Callero
Sax: Mel Collins
Drums: Mike Terrana, Mike Portnoy, Billy Cobham, Walter Calloni, Nunzio "Cucciolo" Favia ------------- It's dark... I've fear... I have strong pains... A serpent is being born... That badly I did, I? |
