Mike Portnoy - drums Billy Sheehan - bass Ex-Dream Theater keyboardist Some guitarist that's been in other bands and is quite talented. Isn’t the The Winery Dogs with Richie Kotzen ?

kutulu 1,560 Posted April 3, 2020 Kotzen is in the winery dogs, maybe confusing with sons of appollo? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sons_of_Apollo https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Winery_Dogs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,085 Posted April 3, 2020 Saw Sons of Apollo at a small venue. They put on a great show. While I love Dream Theater, their singer James LaBrie is the weak link in the lineup. This singer would fit in nicely. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Read a funny review of one of their albums where someone referred to him as James "Just ran up a flight of stairs" LaBrie since he uses the breathy vocals way too much.

They had session musicians play behind. The best songs they do are the Kris Kristifferson ones. Sunday Morning Coming Down, Help Me Make It Through The Night, Me and Booby McGee.

What's the definition of a supergroup A supergroup is a musical performing group whose members have successful solo careers, are members of other groups, or are well known in other musical professions. ... A supergroup sometimes forms as a side project, with no intention that the group will remain together. The Wilburys and Highwaymen were most certainly supergroups.
