"Alive" would be saying too much, but I'm sure as heck not dead (or gone from PA, for that matter )

I got the Gazeta Wyborcza set of classical CDs - 9 so far (10, if you include Johann Strauss whom I bought today). So far Bach slays them all, maybe except for Chopin (go figure) and Telemann. Which is bugging me, actually... I've been doing some reading and it seems nearly everyone thinks Bach is really the best... and, as always, I'm wary of the opinion of the majority, especially since they give some very stereotypical reasons for his greatness (music in the name of God, not earthly ideals, fluid, as opposed to mechanical, note transitions etc. etc. etc.) Nothing I haven't heard before and nothing that has ever convinced me. But, damn it, Bach simply rocks, and he rocks hard \m/ . I need to listen to more Beethoven and Mahler, the Symphony X and DT of classical
What did you get, guys ?

Was that for me questioning Bach, or comparing DT to Mahler?

Studying while listening to ANY music, good or bad, is a bad idea .
And what, don't you like Mahler? Although I agree, he lacked DT's sense of humour.
EDIT: Or maybe he didn't I've only heard the one symphony

Guys, interesting fact:
The attendance at a Planet X concert in the States was TWELVE people. It's fu*king Planet X - Tony MacAlpine, Derek Sherinian, Virgil Donati + guest bassist (Tom Kennedy, Jimmy Johnson or Billy Sheehan), for crying out loud.

... but to be honest:    There were more people in the concert of local hardcore/metal bands there was in may 2004 in my little city... BTW, that was the time many people had mature exams etc. but still there were more people than in the concert you mentioned. I'm shocked.

and they say progmetal is future of prog, more accessible than symphonic prog and less repetitive than neo prog, not to mention about Canterbury
That's definite answer to the question: is prog elitist?

yet you still have time!

Planet X is more like 'jazz metal fusion' than prog metal, and, most of all, it's instrumental. Not too many fans of instrumental music around these days.
I'm sure proper prog metal bands, with singeable choruses and stuff, attract more people to the concerts.
