Still think Queensryche are cool?  http://pauldavidharbour.com/images/queensryche_thumb.jpg - Jesus, has anyone seen "The Warning" or "Rage for Order" inlet shots?  They're terrible, absolutely terrible.

I always found Andy Kuntz (har har) quite cool.

I always thought Gilmour looked pretty majestic, like the kind of guy I'd let lead me into battle, swinging his axe etc.
It's only knock and knowall, but I like it...

One of the LEAST cool looking proggers:



Very very powerful drummer, but some of the most hilarious "drum faces" ever.

The dudes from Pain of Salvation look pretty badass as well


Yeah, Mike has a really cool stage presence, but I could do without the constant spitting. Petrucci calls him "The Camel" on the documentary portion of Live At Budokan, and has plexiglass enclosures for all his rack and amplification equipment to prevent spit damage.

I would have to say David Gilmour is the coolest of all proggers, such an unflappable, classy stage demeanor. In fact, I (subconsciously, or not? ) copied his style of "set mouth, look down and to the side with the occasional close-lipped smile" way of playing when I was first learning guitar.
