Porcaro, Ponazo, I never could keep them straight! LOL
Now I got it however....
If the Porcaro's were with Toto, then it was the Ponazos that were with Styx. yeah... that's it!
OK Wiz... No fair looking but which of the Porcaro brothers left the band "Unexpectedly" in the early 90's? And extra bonus points if you know who replaced him.
(Hint... I'm not talking about about the brother that left to get into films... He wasn't replaced as far as I know)

Bite.....If I had to look that up I would hand you the keys to The Emerald City....Drummer Jeff Porcaro died suddenly in (I think '91) and was replaced with Simon Phillips!....The "other" brother you mentioned was Steve Porcaro who left the band in 1988 after the release of "The Seventh One" album....he was a Wiz himself with the synthesizers!...Mike Porcaro(bass) stayed with the band until they disbanded in 2008!.....and there you have it!:)The Wiz!

I almost bought the luke guitar, his signature guitar is unbelievable. Most people don't realize that if you have been listening to music at all for the last 30 years you have heard lukather because he has played on more albums than you could count
I wish I could play fenez....but I have no musical skills!....You need to check out Middle man by Boz Scaggs...Luke was great on that album...I think a few Toto members played on that one as well...You might remember the song Breakdown Dead Ahead..that was on the album!:)The Wiz!
