I really don't know if there exists somethig like that...

outside of prog, it was pretty funny seeing Jeff Scott Soto singing "I am a Viking" when he was on Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force...  LOL
But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don't bear the glow
They did so long ago

Here's an unreleased gem that I composed on
October 23-24 2003 called "Nightmare Suite"

I wasn't so up to date on recording digital, this was 
mostly done analog. I had just graduated from high
school in Washington, DC.

So, what do y'all think????

^ That was brilliant, I was hugely impressed Clap(and I'm a shameless Emerson fanboy) The only thing that spoiled the vid was the bottom end is very boomy and slightly distorted.
