Have You Seen Your Favorite Prog Artist Live?

The first time I saw Genesis was 1982, when they played Supper's Ready for the last time. The warm-up act for Genesis was no other  than... King Crimson on their Discipline tour! The whole concert was an amazing live experience. I saw them separately several times later on. I never saw Genesis or King Crimson in their 70's line-ups, unfortunately.
I have seen Marillion (Fish-era) live.
I am very proud that I have seen Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman & Howe, with Tony Levin on bass on their tour 1989. That together with one of the early Marillion concerts where the best live shows I have ever seen.
I have seen a later reunion of Yes with Anderson and Wakeman.
I have seen Supertramp for the first time in 1983, (with Chris de Burgh as warm-up act), but I felt they were already past their peak at that time.
I went to nearly every tour of Peter Gabriel since the early 80's and it was always a highlight. 

I've seen Introitus in Uppsala in January of last year. So far I'm their only fan outside Sweden who has come to see them play in their own country. Last November I also saw them at the final Progfarm festival.

I have had the pleasure of seeing them 4 times and I'm only 30, so I discovered them at a young age and I'm so thankful I did. I'm from Toronto and I have seen them twice at the molson amphitheater, once at Massey Hall and once at the Philmore in Detroit. Just love them!!!

I am fortunate enough to say yes.

well not the best best one, but i had a chance to watch Roger Waters alive...
and also Alan Parsons and Ian Anderson too...

but i think i would die if i could see Rush and/or Camel!

Anyway, no, havn't seen my fav bands live, Actually the only real concert i've been to is Iron Maiden when i was a fan of them 

I saw for Roger Waters for my very first and thus far, only concert ever. I had been into Pink Floyd for a while, but my freaking god. This was amazing! Anyways, I'm planning on seeing a PF tribute in a couple weeks (Brit Floyd). Otherwise, I haven't. Yes and Procol Harum passed through and I seriously considered tickets, but I didn't act quick enough. I really, really, really wanted to see Ian Anderson on his TAAB2 tour, but after hearing a recent live recording of Aqualung... nope. I would've definitely seen Dream Theater if they passed anywhere near Denver, but they only went through Texas and Missouri (the closest). I may attempt to see Neal Morse and Mike Portnoy in October when they come to town.

TL;DR - Yes, I technically have.

Second Nature?  Red Tide?

My current favourite band is The Flower Kings and I am going to see them (again) next Saturday AND Monday in the UK 

I saw my two favorites.
I saw Steve Hackett twice in Buffalo NY on two different US tours, sometime in the nineties at two small venues I can't remember.
I saw Fank Zappa once in Buffalo NY sometime in the late eighties or early nineties at Shea's Theatre.

I saw Jethro Tull twice, again in Buffalo NY. Once in the eighties at the Buffalo Auditorium and once in the nineties at Shea's Theater.
I saw Genesis but only as a three man group.
I never saw Jade Warrior. Has anyone?
