I think the original (for audience and chairs) is a bit dull, so maybe the cello version is better.

When someone thinks Ian salmon is fish's brother.

When someone thinks IQ is just a test for intelligence.

When someone thinks RPI is intials you put on someones tombstone.

When someone thinks genesis is a religious band.

While agreeing with you that Xanadu is a great song, feels that you are way out of line to consider Olivia Newton John to be prog.

In an interview with Pink Floyd, states "by the way, which one's Pink?" (actually occurred many times in the early days!)

Listens to Magma and says "this is great I have always loved the French language in prog"

Think they know a lot about Genesis but have never heard of Peter Gabriel.

Still think Jon Anderson fronts Yes.

Listens to the Emerson side of "Works" and says "what is this classical crap? Why don't you put some decent music on such as ELP?"

Hears "Plague of Lighthouse Keepers" and thinks its a great song about the profession of maintaining a lighthouse.

Wonders why Genesis did not release better albums that were as awesome as "ABACAB" or "Invisible Touch".

Thinks that the latest movie "Rush" is a sequel to "Beyond the Lighted Stage"

Thinks Yes were a one hit wonder with "Owner of a Lonely Heart"

Thinks Procol Harum only released one decent song with "Whiter Shade of Pale"
