Scott Rockenfield
Michael Wilton
Eddie Jackson

I would promptly deadbolt the door and go postal on the three of them until they admitted to the error of their ways and agreed to take control of Queensryche back from the Tate Family Circus.  Waterboarding is not necessarily off the menu.

Rockenfield would talk a good game and do nothing, but expect to be paid.

Eddie would laugh.

Michael would curl up in a corner.

You lose, bosky.

I remind you that none of them has had the U.S. Marine unleashed on them before.

With me on drums, that would also be a fun after dinner jam session. :metal

This post is so much funnier/sadder in 2021 than in 2010.

Arjen Anthony Lucassen - he's shaped quite a lot of my musical trajectory both directly and indirectly through the ever-expanding interconnected web of people he's had on his albums. 

Dan Swano - he's probably one of the only guys on the planet who can write, perform all instruments and vocals for, record, engineer, mix, and master superb quality releases in progressive rock, Swedish death metal, and gothic rock, which lines up quite well with my aesthetic tastes.  And he's worked with so many metal legends, I'm sure he has so many stories. 

Herbie Hancock - has played with practically all of the jazz icons of the past three quarters of a century, and has always seemed like a cool guy when I've seen him live.

After seeing Peter Orulian's recent interview with Doug Pinnick, I would actually love to just have a one-on-one with Doug.  I disagree with him fundamentally on SO MANY issues.  But he has always struck me as a particular kind of person, and it was borne out repeatedly in this interview, and he said it himself:  He is very opinionated about a lot of things, and he will not hesitate to tell you all about what he thinks; but he also loves people in general, and loves to talk and have people tell him about what they think and why, even if they disagree with him.  I would love to just sit and chat with him about life.  It seems like there are fewer people nowadays that are will to just talk, and to listen, and to disagree, and who think that just doing all of that has value, whether you come away agreeing or not.  I think it would be an incredibly enriching conversation.  And I have a feeling that we would each come away from it disagreeing even more strongly, but having tremendous respect for one another.

By the way, here is the interview, if anyone is interested and hasn't seen it:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obygfcrOr0Q

Yeah, we've been steadily seeing that quality erode in recent years.

I'm throwing in a twist since inviting super famous musicians in my small apartment dosen't sound that comfortable for me in various ways. :lol

So i'm choosing drummers....... and also i'll replace my seat with a fourth person since I probably have nothing to contribute in this conversation....i'll be the waiter for the evening. I'll contribute by serving them wine and getting them tipsy.

You could have a meal with Varg Vikernes, Keith Moon, and Sid Vicious, but I think I'd want them all the way on the other side of the room, behind thick glass, with secret service garrisoned close by.
