Hopefully everyone's gotten over the arguement of whether or not Radiohead/Queen/others are prog or not. I don't like it much but I really don't like debating things much anymore. It's futile.

 

I agree. Does debating in a public forum become mass debating?

Radiohead, The Beatles, Queen, Supertramp, Death, Styx, Nightwish, Atheist... sorry coudlnt think of ten for the time being.

I don't even consider those bands borderline, they just plain arent prog.  To think that they are here and not some of the more truly prog-related stuff like Led Zeppelin and the Doors.

Indeed..Queen are simply not prog so theres no need for a debate.

If Radiohead are not prog, then neither are The Mars Volta.

Anyway I prefer the expression "Art rock" for both.

Yes, I agree. Someone was on drugs when they added Triumph. Because they are Canadian and sound vaguely like Rush in their less Proggy moments ? I was born on Canada Day (July 1st)- can I be listed under "prog related" ?
Fire up the flux capacitor ! We're taking this Delorean through all four dimensions.

What is the future of prog ? Genesis reunion ? I'm not telling!That could upset the thyme/space continuum.

Out of Prog Archives

I love his shows, but the music IMO is mostly weak and boring, if it wasn't for the apectacular shows (Houston - Lyon is fabulous) nobody would care for him in the Prog World.

Maybe Prog Related at the most.

Why Micky? Aren't we allowed to have an individual and unique taste?

There was a Jarre long thread long time ago (  http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1913&a mp;KW=Jarre ), you should check it, there was a lot of people who disagree with my opinion, but another good number that agrees.

That's the central point of a forum, I would hate to be part of a Forum where somebody says X band is awesome and 30 replies saying "Yes it's true".

That's a fan club and I would never join another one again (The Genesis Forum was a problem, you weren't allowed to find a flawed song, everything had to be perfect, that's why I don't visit it for almost 2 years).

oh come on now Ivan... you should know by now one of the reasons I respect you so much is your unique and iindividual taste in music. 

There was a Jarre long thread long time ago (  http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1913&a mp;a mp;KW=Jarre ), you should check it, there was a lot of people who disagree with my opinion, but another good number that agrees.

I'll check that thread out.. thanks for the heads up

That's the central point of a forum, I would hate to be part of a Forum where somebody says X band is awesome and 30 replies saying "Yes it's true".

hahahah.. how true.. why do you think I get such perverse pleasure out of playing devil's advocate against  Genesis in some threads. 

That's a fan club and I would never join another one again (The Genesis Forum was a problem, you weren't allowed to find a flawed song, everything had to be perfect, that's why I don't visit it for almost 2 years).

Well I'll do my part to make sure that PA's doesn't descend to that level either hahahhah. 

I'll look over that thread this evening and see what you had to say on Jarre.

Iván

your partner in prog...
