A few weeks ago I was in a local Kroeger and Heat of the Moment was being piped through the sound system.
 
I know, neither is hard-core prog but for heaven's sake this is Kentucky, we'll take whatever crumbs fall from the table.
Have you had the opportunity to see French TV live

The guitarist gets a nice Fripp sound out of his axe!  Thanks, I hadn't heard of them either.  

Glass Hammer is from Tennessee, which is close....

Having worked in Kentucky, I can verify that it is not the most prog-music friendly environment!

I saw them with an audience of about 20 in a Denver music store...  They are pretty cool, very eclectic (many different styles), and quite humorous.

Take prog out of that last sentence and it's still accurate.  We have to travel to Louisville, Cincinnati and Detroit to see good concerts. 
 
Garth  Brooks gave some concerts in Lexington last year. I did not attend.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

This was cool : not so much Prog in a public place per se, but out and about the other day I saw a regular customer (he works for the local council) wearing a DSOTM tee-shirt. Nothing special there. Anyway, he came in and did his shopping and asked me if we had something he was chasing, I said to him, since he likes DSOTM, I'd have a good look out the storeroom for him. Got what he wanted, then we started talking WYWH, but he insists that Dark Side is the best, since that was the first album he listened to stoned back in the day. I then mentioned Gabriel Genesis which he likes, ELP which he said were great, and Yes, which he could never get into !! I didn't want to start rambling on about Crimso or Camel in case he wasn't familiar..........

you should be in the car next to me when I am blasting Gates of Delirium or CTTE, but for that you'd have to move to Kentucky.
