I'm probably not going to go to bed for at least three more hours at the rate this project is going.

re comments like:
"I'm finding it impossible to understand why anyone would think 1969 to 1976 is "The Dead Zone" of music"
and
"Yes, that was precisely my thought. I could rattle off many
releases from that time period that even someone that was tone
deaf would consider the greatest rock albums of all time, and I'm not
merely referring to the best progressive selections"
Just
the fact that there's so few memorable songs...like I said I LOVE "The
court of the Crimson King" (song), but there's really not a whole stack
of songs I feel that strongly in 'real' prog music...a band like Pink
Floyd are way more mainstream than King Crimson and I would LOVE to hear
songs like "Flaming" and "Remember a day" on the radio.
That you don't suggests that the music is not mainstream nor killer/memorable.
A
lot of the 'real' prog albums I've heard are nice enough...easy
listening to my way of thinking, but they don't really contain songs
that you feel mainstream FM stations SHOULD be playing.
I LOVE Zappa's "Help, I'm a rock" but I get why it doesn't get played on mainstream FM radio.
I'm
sure that there are heaps of fans of death metal who think that certain
bands or songs are absolute greats, but most people would not sure that
view...so, for the guys who think that what I term the Dead Zone of
music is wrong, are there songs that you REALLY believe SHOULD be played
from them because they just deserve to be heard?
And if you
think that "Thick as a brick" deserves to be heard on the radio, then I
think we are coming from completely different positions...it might be
appropriate on a station devoted to prog rock, but the kind of songs I
love are the kind of songs that I think SHOULD be played on mainstream
FM stations...personally, I can't understand how "The court of the
Crimson King" is NOT played there...I feel robbed...can't really say I
feel that way for most prog music...is pleasantly easy listening, but
nothing more.

The Armageddon expo is here at the moment, and of course he's a self confessed mega nerd, so he went. He got all his MGS games signed by the actor who played Campbell, and got him to put quotes on all them. I'm jelly as hell too because I could have got mine signed, but they aren't with me.

Hayter? No he wasn't there, although I'd have killed bitches to meet him.
