[QUOTE="WheresMyD20, post: 5813242, member: 60772"] Actually, I didn't have a specific band in mind when I made that analogy. I can't think of a band that's been around since the 70s that hasn't changed members or experimented with a new sound. The fact that everyone came up with different examples just proves the point. Just about any rock band that's been around for a really long time usually goes through a pattern of starting off with a classic heyday period, then they start experimenting and trying to keep up with the changing mainstream tastes, then they eventually decide to try to rediscover the sound of their heyday period. Not every band follows this pattern, but many of them do. That's were I see 5e trying to go... there was the garage band period (OD&D), the classic period (AD&D 1e/2e), the keeping up with the mainstream period (3e), the experimental period (4e), and now we're starting the rediscovery period (5e).
