Queen, original GnR, Pink Floyd

I will likely change my mind depending on my mood as alot of people will, but thats the beauty of free choice - everything is subjected to interpretation.

What i will say is that if Phil Lynott hadn't gone off the rails, Thin Lizzy would have been RIGHT up there.

You best not be dissing on Winger. Of any pop-metal '80s band, Winger has scary members: Kip Winger has a degree in music composition; Reb Beach was one of the most in-demand session rock guitar players, prior to forming the band; and Rod Morgenstein is a MONSTER jazz fusion drummer. Like the music or not, but the musical weaponery in the group is unreal.

Plus it was cool when they did that guitar swing trick  thing.    Yeah session guys looking for a payday.

TOTO and Garbage are the same deal.  Journey too. And Zeppelin.  Tons of bands when I think about it.

Wow, you know next to nothing about some of these bands. Guitar swing? Reb NEVER did/does that. And a payday? Is this why they continue to release records knowing they'll only maybe sell 15,000 copies or some shit? Tour small club-like venues? It's 20 years past that scene and they are still passionate about writing music together. For what? Big cash? YEAH, RIGHT.

And Journey is the Neal Schon show, whether anyone wants to believe it or not. He's a true musician who has crazy passion for all his music, Journey/solo/otherwise. Same with the cats who go through Journey's ranks.

Won't comment on TOTO because, although I know they're a group of sessions players, I don't know too much about their motivations. Steve Lukather is a beast player, though. As are the core members.
