    That'd be pretty tough. Drummer would either be Dave Grohl or Jon Bonnahm (I spelled that wrong)
    Bass would be Jeff Ament or Paz (from A Perfect Circle). Singer would be Brandon Boyd, from Incubus. Guitars....hmmmm, Mike McCready has the pedals and the blues working in his favor. So does Einziger (from Incubus). I'm also a big fan of John Mayer's guitar work. This is just such a hard question, my apologies for thinking while I type. I'll have to come back to this so I'll probably edit it, later.

    JEFF HARDY AND JEFF AMENT USED TO LOOK THE SAME

    Boom is your pick for greatest keyboard player in the history of the world???
    "I'll tell you what: If all I had was Pearl Jam, and I didn't have another band in the world, I would not be worried. Because in there is the essence of making great music. You don't have to use it all at once, but it's there." - Neil Young
