This thread was awesome, bumpin' it back to life!

Update on my fantasy supergroup:


Michael Romeo - Guitars
Per Nilsson - Guitars

Shit got real.

 

[Nights_Blood]

I'm thinking more in terms of an Ayreon album, with a lot of different musicians involved. Kinda defeats the purpose of the thread, but it's just too difficult too narrow it down. Not necessarily my all my favorite guitar players, vocalists, etc. but the ones whose styles I think would work well together.
