Apart from Gabriel's banter before songs, I don't hear anything different between Genesis' studio and Genesis live. Visually they were a great band but not to listen to!

Aha! Another poll allowing multiple voting, hence the rather silly numbers being polled...

I saw Jethro Tull in May this year & although the band were great the show was let down by a poor mix.I saw Genesis years ago and they were great.Only seen the Live in Rio DVD by Rush & that was great but again a poor vocal mix.As there is no other button I wont vote because the best prog live acts Ive seen were Tool and Pink Floyd.

The only one I've seen live is Jethro Tull, and they were great.

Genesis and Gentle Giant sound great live from the stuff I've heard.

Rush are pretty damn good as I've seen them a couple of times, but it's a shame that there isn't a vote for Marillion as they are still the best band I have ever seen live

The best band I ever saw live was Yes (Hammersmith Appollo with the symphony orchestra a few years back). But I never saw ELP in their glory years (1971-74)

I'm afraid you're right, thanks God there are quite a few good Genesis concert bootlegs in DVD format and The Musical Box are on tour (The closest experience to a Classic Genesis concert).

By the way, the only prog' bands I ever saw in person are Yes, ELP, Jethro Tull, Kansas, Rick Wakeman, Pink Floyd and Crimson and a couple more I can't remember.

Great bands don't come very often to Perú nor I'm old enough to have seen most of them in the 70's, but thanks to technology I saw most of the great bands on DVD.

Out of the entire list, I've seen KC, Yes, Rush and Jethro Tull... but still, I think both Pink Floyd concerts in Mexico City were outstanding! a pretty high fence for the others to leap...

Well I've seen all of them live except Mariah and Grobschnitt... and even tho I loved Yes and King Crimson... I'm still pulling for ELP.

However, some people have way to much time on their hands.. or some Genesis/KC fans anyway...hehe

THIS IS ELP
