I don't see the point of having the dead in a band. We fired all our dead members. They weren't pulling their weight as it twere.

Yeah, unless they are Grateful Dead, they tend to eat the audience's brains, too

As much as i love Geddy Lee, and his singing - it's obvious his voice is in decline. But that's okay, they will always be flawless players.

I think his voice has gotten better. He's had a few struggles with illness recently but when he's healthy, he's still phenomenal. Even though he can't sing as high as he used to, he's become a technically better singer (raising the soft pallate, singing with a full voice, using the facial muscles properly) to make his voice richer and fuller, while still maintaining his unique style and vocal quality. And come on, a fifty-nine year old man singing an F5 in chest voice and actually sounding good? I wouldn't call that "decline" at all.

Guitar - Robert Fripp. A Legend!
Guitar - Brian May. Be a sin not to let him on here!
Guitar (yet another) - Alex Lifeson. Much respect for him.
Guitar (seemingly endless) - Steve Hackett
Vocalist - Jon Anderson
Vocalist - Peter Gabriel
Vocalist + Guitar - Adrian Belew
Vocalist - Justin Hayward. Add some mellowness to it.
