Prog Music has hit an all time low....

I think that Ben is making a stand against the norm.

He is a voice that speaks up aginst the crowd and a man of character, he makes eloquent and compelling arguments. You must admire is strength of character and intellect.  

Well Played, Ben, Well Played

Can't you guys tell that he's just another bored newb with nothing better to do than piss off the prog community, clearly look as his name and one cannot come to another conclusion.  Just the fact that he knows the big prog bands shows that he is actually just a prog fan who is messing with you guys to get a funny response, which has worked so far to his enjoyment.  Plus he's a contradicting himself, in the beginning he states he has an "utter distaste for the prog genre" and at the end of his post he's trying to show how Aqua is prog which is just a complete joke, plus he refers to us as "fellow prog enthusiasts", usually when someone says "fellow" they are including themselves within a group which he is doing.  Just the fact that you guys have taken this seriously shows your lack of a sense of humor and a failure to recognize a clear joke when you see one.  No offense, but as Ali G would say "Grow a Brain."

Interesting that in a poll on the BBC internet site, Pink Floyd were voted the best band on Live 8 by nearly 250000 people, 60% of all those who voted.

This suggests that a prog band was better than all the other (so called) titans of modern music, most of whom are so memorable that I can hardly remember any of them or what they played.

You obviously don't like prog. Fine - that's your opinion. I do. So do a hell of a lot of other people. Calling it rudimentary is so laughable I wonder how much you've actually heard (CERTAINLY not Gentle Giant!).

So why don't you go back to your rap or punk or whatever (rubbish?) you listen to and stop trying to be a prat? Then we can get on with serious and important discussion.

I don't think so ... he didn't even include a link to their website, or audio samples.

It is a hilarious attempt at trolling.
