Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

I voted against them in a previous poll, but this round must go to the clear leader, Caravan.  I can get into DT sometimes, and have seen them live, but they represent everything that can go wrong with Prog.

This place is truly unrecognizable these days LOL. When we first joined, over 9 years ago, the forum was positively teeming with rabid DT fans. I wonder where they are now...

Swept away by the shifting sands of time. We're now facing the aftermath of a Canterbury haboob, I guess...

I know what you mean Raff. I've even tested the waters with a couple of comments and nothing. It used to be even if you said DT was anything less than the best band ever all the fanboys would come out of the woodwork looking for blood.

Yes, this has taken away a lot of the fun we used to have when bashing DTWink...

Has to be Caravan. For Girls Who Grow Plump In The Night is a very closely held favourite of mine, while ol' DT are quite decent... though of course that's not good enough to stand against any other runner in this whole competition.

i'm actually going with Dream Theater on this one. however, i only know Panic Attack, Pull Me Under, and On the Backs of Angels very well. did listen to their two latest albums, which were alright, but they may need more listens like ALOT of other albums out there.

Sorry guys, but I can't stand them.




count yourself lucky then you weren't married to red haired hellion who LOVED Celine Dion.  I'd poke my eyes out and listen to DT before I ever laid eyes on a willing red head or a CD of Dion's LOL

This...
 
DT's rabid fans left for either MMA or the DT fan sites....not much to discuss though based on the last couple albums DT released, they are boring save for a couple songs.
