There are also spaghetti westerns, something to be proud of, so why not spaghetti prog? (although we have already RPI)

I thought Supper's Ready WERE a Genesis tribute band. Smile
Exactly.
There's one in PA and they don't appear to be a tribute.
A-ha, so there really IS a Genesis tribute band called Supper's Ready, and they're a spaghettified version of Genesis from Italy. Smile

spaghettified? you were trying to be funny nd ended up rude. 
 
"Spaghettified" is actually a real word. In theoretical physics, it's what happens when you get too close to a  black hole and get stretched out like a string of spaghetti. Dead

Wait, there is a band called Supper's Ready and they are NOT a cover band? Well, that's sad... Big smile

There's a French band called Abacab. They don't sound like Genesis though. LOL
There was a band from Israel (if I remember right) called Trespass, but they sounded like ELP. LOL



Just amazing

I know a psych-rock band called Gandalf. Nice band and album. 
I have that excellent Gandalf album in my CD collection, and there's also a prolific New Age artist called Gandalf too. Smile

I do feel that bands should avoid anything connected to LOTR, it's just perpetuating the goblins and wizards view of prog that people have.
Isildur's Bane is another one. And Marillion, although I'm guessing some people don't realise that.

These names sound cool to me, I never really connected them to LOTR. Maybe it' just me.

Neo prog. They're from Maryport, England and are listed in PA if you want to check them out.
