Shockedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b0Y7DyRPwE&search=prog%20rock
 
Anyway, aside from this dumb video, i thionk this is a good topic of discussion.  I think prog is something that has COME and never left.  It left such an amazing impact before its demise in 1976, that it is like the mona lisa, or an amazing book.  It doesnt need SAVING, its already a landmark! what is this guy talking about!
 
The classic prog sound may be lost, but the stuff CAME and is THERE and it is an era of greatness and doesnt need saving, its amazing and always will be and there is always more to discover from that time!

That IS a dumb videoLOL

Prog doesn't need saving, it can make it fine on its own. It's one of those things that will always appeal to a certain, relatively small, group of people who will carry on its legacy

haha, what the hell is that video? That makes about as much sense as...well...about as much sense as someone who would make that stupid clip.

Ridiculous. SAVE prog? Prog doesn't need saving, like Miracle said...

"It's one of those things that will always appeal to a certain, relatively small, group of people who will carry on its legacy"

I can't agree more with that, right on the money. As long as people still listen to prog, it doesn't need saving...but maybe the people who made that video do...

I think that Prog Music is not a fashion, so it doesn't need to be saved...
