Trouserpress, one day you will write scenario for progressive "Spinal Tap" movie



I think Spinal Tap parodies many a prog convention as it is. I'd love to increase awareness of prog through my work (if I ever get ANY modicum of success, this is), through using largely proggy soundtracks for any radio/TV/film work. Part of me would also just love to present a proggy music show, but that's probably an even more far fetched dream than working for TV would be!

Go for it TP. You could be the next "whispering Bob".

You're forgetting groups made of virtuoso musicians who are all named like lawyer firms - bozzio, levins & stevens / emerson, lake & palmer/ torn, karn, bozzio / anderson bruford wakeman & howe / etc

Good point, lordoflight. I'm a lawyer myself (just a rookie in fact), but I remember that during my schooling we were to emulate the trial, I was playing the role of barrister and named my firm "Anderson Bruford Wakeman & Howe". One day I will open a firm with such name  with my colleague who is also a great progger.

I guess Jon, Bill, Rick and Steve would have nothing against it.
yet you still have time!

If your band is about searching for the 70's prog style, a long name will do the job. "The Horizons Suns of the Landscapic Forest of the Sea" is about right.

Based on looking out of my windows I have a few great album names.

#01.     2 bums and a couple of bushes.

#02.     Between the venetian blinds.

#03.     These windows needs to be cleaned.

Mine would be "A Man in a Suit Walking Past a Luxurious House with a White Facade Turns Around to See a Car Going Down the Road in His Direction."
