Do we get bonus points if the same musician has played in both projects? Like Megadeth versus Sting (Vinnie Colaiuta) or Slayer versus Vivaldi's Four Seasons (Dave Lombardo)? Do you think the Steely Dan guys thought "I want a little of that Frank Zappa feeling" when they hired Vinnie? Or Steve Smith, with all that Journey experience under his belt, how are fusion listeners supposed to feel about him?
