Let's see here:

Gabriel vs. Anderson....................Gabriel wins, Anderson is too short, and won't fight because he is a hippy.  Hogweed Lives!

Hackett vs. Howe..........................they don't feel like fighting, so they shake hands, and go form GTR.

Rutherford vs. Squire....................Rutherford wins on dry land because a fish can't fight out of water (Squire). 

Collins vs. White/Bruford.................Phil begins singing his remake of "You can't Hurry Love", and White and Bruford shrivel into submission.

Banks vs. Wakeman.........................Wakeman swoops around in his colorful capes, and engages Banks into a mideival sword duel (on ice of course), while playing "King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table."  Wakeman wins.

So Genesis wins the fight, but it's close.

Yeah, but Gabriel is known to throw stuff on stage.  He could just launch his bass drum at Jon, and that'd be it, lights out.

Yes, of course! Although Collins could be a danger, if he started using his own songs as a secret weapon...

Nobody would win! They would be like, "fighting is so un-prog..."

But if they fought Genesis would win just becuase they seem more of a band to beat someone up than Yes. I like Yes more though.

Genesis work together better, theyd win. Yes would all try to go lone wolf and pitter about pointlessly by themselves (like the often do in there music) and genesis would swoop down in a well coordinated pack (like in their music) and win despite the fact seperatly yes is stronger. Kinda like the new york rangers, doesnt matter how good the players are but how well they work together as a team (hockey reference!)

YES, when Bruford was drumming.  He would take all of Genesis down!!

Dream Theater are such wusses that they would get beaten up good and proper by The Spice Girls.

Regarding Yes vs Genesis, don't underestimate Jon Anderson in a scrap. My money would be on Yes winning, but it would be a close thing.

here's a question, what is it about yes that makes it so people like them so much. Ive never really enjoyed yes and i don't know why others do. and its not symphonic prog that i have the problem with. Genesis is one of my favorite bands

HELP!

  • Gabriel/Anderson - Gabriel, though Anderson is very close
  • Hackett/Howe - Both
  • Collins/Bruford - Collins, though Bruford is also very good
  • Rutherford/Squire - Squire
  • Banks/Wakeman - Both

Total: Genesis wins!!

With Wakeman's height, Squire's very large fists, Howe's pitiable old man appearence, and Bruford's syncopation power all under the direction of Anderson, Yes would be sure to win.
