Ah, Zack Hill is a great choice, he'd have been in my list for sure if my brain had registered him as a prog drummer Dead

And Nathan, as long as the band/guy you mentioned appears on PA under something that isn't Prog Related it's valid.

So you want me to give 1 point to Carl Palmer and 10 to Jon Theodore, just so we're clear?

Also, to the guy above him, Ian Paice is prog-related. Switch him out for somebody else and I'll count the vote.

Deep Purple is Proto-Prog not Prog Related- I would happily argue that the first three albums and the Concerto for Group and Orchestra are full Prog and that they are not in a Prog subgenre because of their later, more successful, albums.
 
Whether you count the vote or not is completely irrelevant and I couldn't give a damn either way. As I am the only person who has picked him it will count for nothing anyway.
 
 
On a lighter note - I'm a bloody Admin, not some "guy" and you do not tell me what to do. Tongue

I kind of shuffle "proto prog" into "prog related" in my brain-they're both not TECHNICALLY strictly prog and it just makes things easier for me, personally if I don't have to go through and decide which pr/pp drummer is "real prog"and which aren't. And also I mean that the ENTIRE vote won't be counted, all ten, since once again it just makes things harder for me if I have to reshuffle my brain for math purposes. 

The rules are the rules, by God! Angry
