Good list........

Quickly, because 5 is getting more and more difficult........

Big Audio Dynamite/The Clash (I'm cheating that that *ahem* one selection

Led Zeppelin

Beatles

Pink Floyd

Yes

INXS

Shit, that was 6. I guess they'd give a finance degree to retards that couldn't count to 5 in the 80s......

Not an easy question...10 would be twice as easy, no doubt.

Big D, I know your tastes in music. Look up the name Roger Fisher and cross reference him to Queensryche. Pretty good friend of mine. He was big in the Seattle music scene in late 70s to early 90s. Roger Fisher was the first lead guitarist of Heart and worked with Bad Company.....

Google him. Great guy, and I'm not name dropping, but became friends with him by accident. Cool dude,

How you been doc?

Good- busy- 12 hr days but can't complain-

I saw R Fisher's myspace- seems like he played with a lot of the Seattle area bands at the time-

Check out these guys - a regional band, but by chance I met the bass player ( the guy who looks like Johnny Depp )- pretty nice guy-

Dhop..........I met Roger once. He used to have house/recording studio out by the Bear Creek country club. Seemed like a nice guy. Didn't know he had any ties to Queensryche.

He is an amazungly cool dude. Lived in the Czech Republic recently, and just moved back to your neck of the woods Mugg.

I was invited to his 60th B-Day, and just couldn't swing it, a few weeks ago...........Pamela Moore who sang some with Queensryche, Roger played with 'em, and was Heart's original guitarist, etc.

My BF is from Seattle area and he did some spots with Roger, Heart, Pamela Moore......along with lots of the Seattle music scene that you know more than I about than me......I get all this retroactively, since I didn't move to California (S.F.) until '91....I'll see Roger in Europe (according to him) and we're catching Dan Reed in Paris......

Pretty much anyone who was anyone in the Seattle scene throughout the 80s, was at a reunion about 6 miles N of downtown in 2007........Remember a band called "Ten Bulls"? Anyway, there were so many people at this bar they bought out for the night.......

I'll equate these Seattle Scene guys as mostly being AAA, not yet made it to the bigs yet, but plenty of them were studio guys that were hired for tours for decent bands here and there.......

Mugg, I'll drop you a note with all the guys I've partied with from your cool ass Seattle area, and you'll shit yourself with how many names you know (that I still don't that well) At this reunion, they kept taking turns on stage.......wild shit........all between 45-60, but extremely talented.......

They all knew who I was from pics with my BF, when I lived with he, who was the best keyboardist in the mass of musicians for a few years in S.E. Florida, and he was taking a hiatus from music...............Funny when I walked in, and they knew me from my aborigine tan in pics I wasn't aware of.....

Bunch of old hippies and music talent all night long.....(and all the extras that you'd expect)
