On the more serious side. I feel a deep close connection to.... Ahh, who am I kidding, Rock Lobsta!!!!!
OK, ok, I got that out of my system Fred.
I'm with Adrian, I've been a serious music listener since I was able to accurately pick out any Beetles' 45 from my Mom's pile two years before I could actually read. They all had yellow center stickers, but so did some others and I'd always get them right, right down to the A vs. B side.
I did think about this and there are way too many artists that I have come to respect over the years to pick one. At best, I'm a bandwagon jumper and my answer might change from week to week.

I guess for me, it was Rush - the total teenage misfit thing, heady lyrics, awesome musicianship. I'd watch the concert videos (VHS) at a friend's house, and we saw them on the Power Windows tour at the Omni (RIP) the spring of my senior year of high school. I've seen them on almost every tour since.
Lately, the band that strikes the perfect chord is Green Day. I could listen to their last two CDs over and over again. Heck, I often do that on my commute. They have achieved sonic perfection - I wouldn't change a note. I'm flirting with the idea of picking up the drums, after being an air drummer for twenty-plus years. I used to think I'd want to play like Neil Peart, but now I think I'll set my sights on playing like the far more attainable, but still quite awesome, Tre' Cool.

I wanted to be a drummer when I was a kid, and then a guitarist.

I wanted to be a bassist when I was in college, but I'm far too lazy.

Can't argue with you there. I also have similar drum aspirations. Before I took up the drums, Neil Peart was definitely my favorite drummer. Now that I strive to someday just break out of the beginner category, his amazing talent and the complex rhythms just make me angry. If you plan attaining on being the next Tre' Cool, you might have a better shot on the drumming side but you will never be able to match his real life name. "Frank Edwin Wright the Third"
