A plan formed in Mani Neumeier
to play the drums on a high-wire.
"If I will fall down",
he spoke with a frown,
"Well, then I won't have to retire"

The mad Aqualung eyed the lasses
But gave joy to the Tull loving masses
They then turned on Ian
"Pretentious he's bein'..
...who cares that dumb rabbit lost his glasses!"

Wakeman on keyboards could wail And his solo's were great without fail Till the Topograph tour Made him sick - but his cure Was to eat some Chinese with his Tales! |

There once was a guy called Neal
He tried hard to get that big record deal
But as the wheels didn't turn
Though many years he did yearn
He couldn't even eat mustard on his meal!
Ok that was a bit sad how about another one..
Now Neal is happy reaching for the sky
His solos still mostly end up high
Epics that never go wrong
Though some think his head's gone "dong"
His influence on prog no one can deny!

Their once was a singer named Clayton
Many people thought he was Satan.
Everybody laughed and many did cry,
But to no avail Clayton was just a nice guy.
The light of the Saviour Machine burns bright
And many know that's quite a fight.

Here's a couple in honor of two of my favourite bands...
Brooker's words swirled in the fog While the paisley he wore was quite modA white shade of pale Brought fame and fine tail He truly was one salty dog!
Ange is the greatest French prog band And Christian Descamps is a madman Though advancing in age He's still prowling the stage with a presence most pleasing to fans!

Good one! Though I expected your punch line to be about Dagmar

A more romantic one:
A flute playing bard born in Fife
told Shone, his beautiful wife,
"You may find me sick
or thick as a brick,
but I’m yours for the rest of your life."

Time for some new bands to have fun with...
A singer named Nichols was blue 'cause the neo-prog haters he knew Claimed that he sucked And his band was a bust Which caused him to doubt his IQ!
Mikael growled words like a demon Then sang like an angel between them Some fans were amused And others confused But The Mighty Opeth ruled Sweden!
Three Shulman brothers were friends With musical gifts without end They added a Kerry And string man named Gary Acquiring an intricate blend!

No.
(But yes, bird-dogging is known as girlfriend-napping in Amerikay.)

I hadn’t read yours when I made mine. I suppose you mean Hammill, but I must confess that I don’t understand the part about the metalprogger and the bird-dogging … (I don’t know Hammill’s biography very well; I’m more interested in the music and the lyrics).

You dont know the meaning of to bird-dog another man's salty?? |
I wager it's a rude metaphor for stealing someone's girlfriend

Thanks...and back at you, the opening couplet of your's is priceless...
There once was a band called Yes
What they sang of was anyone's guess
