The Perfect Band!!!

[Mr Torture]

Vocals, Guitars, keyboards, Bass and Drums...

Vocals : Timo Kotipelto
Guitar : Yngwie Malmsteen
Guitar : John Petrucci
Bass : Stuart Hamm
Drums : Mike Portnoy
Keyboards : Jens Johansson

Take Care

[Jaakko]

A good list but I'd modify it a bit...

Vocals: Timo Tolkki
Guitars: Yngwie of course
Bass: John Myung
Drums: any skilled jazz drummer, maybe Sami Kuoppamäki would do
Keys: Jens for solos, Moore for atmosphere and overall musicianship

Hehe. Tolkki showed on HtL that he still can add more feeling to the singing than most "real" singers.

[Laaka]

Still.. Oh man I can't decide

vocals: Timo Kotipelto/Tarja Turunen
Guitars: Emppu Vuorinen/Yngwie
Bass: Jari Kainulainen/ Marco Hietala
Drums: Tommy Portimo..yeah!
Keyboards: Tuomas Holopainen/ Mikko Harkin (even tough he doesn't play anymore..)

[Mr Torture]

Take Care

[WastedMan78]

Vocals: Bruce Dickinson
Guitar: Eddie Van Halen or Joe Satriani
Bass: Dunno, maybe Marco Hietala
Drums: Maybe Phil Rudd, don't know any good drummers. (AC/DC is the band if someone didn't know btw.)

It's actually really hard to say which ones are the best ones, but those are the ones I like and/or know. I don't know that much about music, I only listen it.

[Metal Matt]

Guitar - Randy Rhoads (dont get any better than that

Bass- Billy sheehan or Stu Hamm (can't decide)

Drums - Neil Peart

Vocals - Jeff Martin

[Jaakko]

I never said he's "better" than Kotipelto but sure has more natural power and feeling in his voice, maybe with not such a perfect technical performance but who cares. It sounds good. And it's different, not close to anyone else's voice, impossible to compare with anyone.

I love Chuck Schuldiner as a musician and he was a very nice prson! I love Death and Control Denied! When I was informed about Chucky's death I was very sad!!! He was one of the best metal musicians of all ages in my personal opinion!

The best lineup would be as following:

Female vocals: Tarja Turunen (Nightwish)
Guitar 1: Yngwie J. Malmsteen (Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force)
Guitar 2: Timo Tolkki (Stratovarius, Roadblock (or what it was called...))
Solo keyboard: Jens Johansson (Stratovarius, Yngwie's Rising Force, Dio, Etc) or Warmen (Children of Bodom)
Atmosphere keyboard: Mustis (Dimmu Borgir)

That lineup would be great to both hear on a studio album and see playing onstage!!!

Yeah...
Sure it is new for you,yeah
But I dunno how to describe it...
If you hear Dimmu Borgir,you'll get a feeling of a dark atmosphere around you...
And this is mostly made by the use of keyboards...
