I've met the guy that founded the Official Harmonium site, and used to run it untill he resigned a few years ago.

I sat close to very back of teh CNE Stadium, when Pink Floyd came to Toronto in 94. But I could barely see them, even with binoculars.

I was around 20 meters away from Jean-Michel Jarre when he performed his concert in Gdansk last year.

Being an avid autograph collector [yes, i was one of those sad people who use to hang around the stage door after the show] I have met many a prog giant!

The most amenable and freindly were:

Greg Lake
Carl Palmer
Steve Hackett
John Wetton
Geoffry Downes
Rick Wakeman
Neal Morse
Steve Howe
Alan White
Bill Bruford
Cozy Powell

And the not so freindly ones

Phil Collins
Jon Anderson
Ritchie Blackmore

Joe Ellliot use to drink in my local. Use to talk to him about his favourite bands as one does. He was really into Mott The Hoople. Not prog but just thought I'd share it!
