   So you're saying they annoy you when they come on the radio... well they only play Collins era on the radio, have you even heard the Gabriel stuff like Foxtrot, Selling England by the Pound etc.? It seems unlikely that you haven't but it's just that you talk about being annoyed when hearing them on the radio.

	You ain't the only one, and as for the last question, I don't know. Lord knows I've tried. However, Ivan could tell you why.
	Can you tell me where we're headin'? Lincoln County Road or Armageddon.

	I really don't like Genesis, I don't know what it is maybe the fact that I haven't explored their music enough and only heard the sh*t on the radio. I've listened to all the listed genres in the archives, mostly RIO, Cantebury, Krautrock, Space, and some of the easier to listen to bands (Porcupine Tree, Tool, Rush, etc). Theres something about Genesis that just boils my blood when it comes on (I wouldn't be too worried but my work plays a station that plays them a lot). As a prog fan, is there something wrong w/ me, because Genesis seems to be the under the fav's of everyone here. I've tried giving some of Peter Gabriel's music a chance but it didn't exactly click. I also really enjoy Brand X, though I can't imagine there being ne similarities in sound. So, either tell me theres nothing wrong me and I just have a different taste in music (or flame me for seeking validation that a band sux, w/e) or tell me I'm wrong while also giving me a reason and maybe suggesting an album that could possibly turn me on to them. Another question, and just being curious, what makes them so great???
