Are you saying that McConnel and Herring aren't remarkable musicians?
Herring yes, McConnell, meh. Sorry, I just still view McConnell as the typical college band guitarists who just happened to be lucky and available to fill the void with WP. I know how much you love that band and sorry if you disagree, but that's how I think about it.

This was my main point though.

He was hand picked by Houser to be his replacement. I think you need some pretty serious chops in order for that to happen.
Herring is obviously the better of the two imo. Hell Herring is probably a better technical guitarist than Houser.

Leroy Bach and Bob Egan were members at a time, as well...

Cant argue with that. The classic lineup will always be my favorite, but the new guys out at the fest this past week were spot on...

I am a believer that playing behind Keef makes everyone better. I prolly could look good with Keef on lead...I joke. the above are all excellent musicians. Good choice. But for me, it is and always will be Keefs band, along with the best front man of all time.

Fleetwood Mac went through several lineup changes and all were great.
I don't know the specific names of the members though.

Good call. Although my favorite Chilli Peppers lineup was the original: Kiedis, Flea, Slovak, Irons

I didn't forget about him, I just wasn't sure how he would go over in the thread... especially since he died in the Chilis.
I'm one of the biggest RHCP standard bearers out there.
What blows me away about them is the level at which they have been doing it for so longPosted on 5/6/12 at 7:33 pm to RealityTiger
How about Guns n' Roses?
I still shudder to think that, the one and only, Tommy Stinson plays bass in that band... To think he went from arguably the greatest American band of the 80s (at 11 years old), to Axl's megalomaniacal sideshow...

We definitely have differing opinions on that, but they have been at it a long time...

frick Axl... his ego ruined that band
On a related not I enjoyed Velvet Revolver's CD with Slither and I fall to pieces.

I thought they were pretty terrible with Navarro and I'm not a big fan of this new guy either (can't remember his name atm). They were great with Hillel and and beyond great with Frusciante though

Don't know about GnR.
Although I rocked their 1st 2 albums when they were released, I never thought they ever had much staying power - regardless of lineup changes. It worked for a few albums, then meh.

I get that they get a lot of hate.. doesn't really bother me... different strokes for different folks. I just love that kinda melodic funky style they have.. but that's just me.
For example (I am about to utter blasphemy) I don't really like the Beatles... Just never got into them. Yea, I said it.
's galore coming my way I'm sure Posted on 5/6/12 at 7:39 pm to jose canseco
well, they only had 3 records until that chinese democracy, right?
I'm not a huge fan either... consider them stricken from further consideration and discussion...
