                                            Hello fellow progheads.
 
Imagine you have won the lottery and are able to organize a 2-day progrock festival (so money is no problem Wink), which bands would you present to the longing progheads?
 
These are the rules:
 
Day One:
four bands including one headliner (recent bands)
 
Day two:
four bands including one headliner (recent bands)
 
Here is mine:
 
Day One:
- PFM (Italy)
- Banco (Italy)
- Le Orme (Italy)
- Steve Hackett Band (UK)
 
Day two:
- Little Tragedies (Russia)
- Nemo (France)
- Senogul (Spain)
- Greg Lake Band (UK)
 
                                I am looking forward to your ideas Thumbs%20Up

I have the idea that The Miracle didn't read the rules: a four bands line-up and recent bands (unfortunately no complete Genesis Reunion tour)  You look like Tony Blair who is also going his way without any rule Wink !
