Several years ago...
In a foreign town...
Far away from home...
I met the Count of Tuscany...

That's Dream Theater, of course.

So many to choose from with him, yes....but if I must, I might tip my hat to that poor bloke in "Grace Cathedral Hill," or the pair of homosexual whores in "On the Bus Mall," or brave, defiant, William...

...or The Rake...

All right?

A bit belated but I loved the pun LOL

Lots of prog music features storylines and characters, do you have a favourite?
 
I think mine would be The Reverend, from "The Battle of Epping Forest" (Selling England, Genesis).  The devil caught hold of his soul...
 
Runner-up is Mud Flanigan, the hero of "The Prince of Heaven's Eyes" album by Fruupp.Smile
 
As long as it's not Harold DemureWink
 
Mine: The Jean Genie - I mean, who else could do that kind of stuff?
 
Oh and Guru Guru's Dagobert Duck, of course. And Alex Harvey's Vambo
It's not that I can't find worth in anything, it's just that I can't find worth in enough.
