*cough*
What about the bands who tour with only one original member left because that person and all the other members of the current band genuinely like what they are playing - and so do their audiences?
more power to them I personally just prefer artists who continue to make new music rather than just live off the legacy they created,Bands like the human league,devo,Judas Priest continue to tour but rather than just playing all "classics" they sprinkle in a new tune here and there so that they are (to me at least) more than just a tribute band of themselves.But when a band has one original member like Queensrÿche
(and I know there are two versions of the band) where Geoff Tate is the only original member I feel he should go by another name.
