IA. As an example, the FS WLL would not have been the same without Zac on the keys IMO. Also think if Adam is leaning toward funk - and who knows what else - that Longineau's background would be an advantage. Don't know how Yellowcard is doing, and don't know that L's ego would be such that he'd want to do another tour with someone else headlining. I don't mean that in a negative way. It takes some ego to do what one has to do in that business! Just feel he is very talented in many genres. Speaking with NO expertise whatsoever : I'm no judge of musical talent by any stretch, but I've always wished Adam could have Orianthi for guitarist. Having seen her open for Adam a bunch of times, I think she's mediocre as a singer, but amazing as a guitarist, and her look is fantastic! NoAngel - I always wished for a "battle of the Sleepwalker guitars" on stage - between Orianthi & Monte! She did the solo on the album - Monte played it during GNT! Never happened :/ :-/

TommyJoeRatliff TommyJoe Ratliff by rabbittopia Getting Happy Birthday sang to you in Finnish is pretty rad... God damn I have some awesome friends! 💓🌟 13 minutes ago First of all, I guess we know what Adam and Sauli are up to tonight. Second- I love the thought of Sauli (or at least mostly Sauli) singing to Tommy. Aww, that's really cute! Tommy's actual birthday is the 18th, I think? I wonder if the party is at Adam's house and that's what the trip to Whole Foods was about. LOL sometimes I just shake my head at how much info we have about Adam and what he does on his off-time. And then other times I wonder why we don't have him on 24/7 surveillance....

Does no one here follow bassists? ??? I don't follow guitarists, but my friend does and she thinks Matt Bellamy is the best she's heard lately. lol Do you think he'd leave his little band to play bass for Adam?

I'm only going by his past practices, and except for keybard, which changed 3 times, the promo band and the touring band were the same. It would seem strange, to me, to have to start all over again with a different band after doing promo with another one. Doesn't sound efficient, to me. :-/ Who knows, but if I had to guess, I'd bet that Tommy and Isaac would be part of the promo/touring band next era. Monte is a question mark at this point, and I'm not sure about Cam. As for dancers, I'd be cool with just a couple of male dancers-- Terrance and ??? I agree about Terrance!! And I would be shocked if Brooke was not back as Adam's choreographer. ETA: On the question of great bass guitarists, if Adam has integrated funk into his music, he will need a very strong bassist or have to use backing tracks. But using backing tracks confines Adam too much. Here a list of great bass players: www.musicradar.com/news/bass/the-25-greatest-bassists-of-all-time-279007/1Problem for Adam is that the band also needs to have a certain look. Tommy fits that image well.

But as long as I've already have Justin Hawkins and Fred LeBlanc in my fantasy band, why not Matt Bellamy?!!!!!!! ETA: We can keep Tommy on rhythmic guitar. Zac needs to leave Korn and stay on keys. ;D

Tommy fits that image well. I like the idea of Tommy playing rhythm guitar. Once you learn the chords to the songs, it is not that difficult. He and Adam seem to have a great relationship, a similar love of glam, and a certain outrageousness.

Here's my bass guitarist recommendation --- assuming we do not have to be realistic:
Michael Peter Balzary, better known as Flea, from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
ETA: Hard to pick a dream band for a tour to promote an album we have not heard yet.
