Do we have to choose just one?
Most of the members of Pink Floyd are pretty big assholes. If we want to call them Prog Radiohead's Thom Yorke is pretty bad also. Probably got a big head after being world's greatest musician one too many times.......

I've heard Jon Anderson is very aloof and easygoing
Billy Sheehan is very sharp-witted but still friendly
Tony Levin is supposed to be very kind and approachable

Fripp would take the prog cake but the everest would be Ritchie Blackmore!

So true... As much as I love Blackmore's guitar playing, the stories I've heard of him are pretty awful, especially the way he treated Ian Gillan when they were in Purple together.

not only Gillan , ask Simper , Evans , Glover , Hughes, most of Rainbow members
I met the asshole backstage in 85 in Toronto on a pass handed by Lord. As I came for an autograph , he was not only rude but completely disrepectful!

Don't know why anyone would say Emerson or Lake... and not because of my relationship with them.. but they have always treated their fans with respect and Greg is actually rather charming and outgoing to everyone... He can be arrogant with assholes and play the part of a spoilt rocker every now and then when he was young... but never have I seen him be rude to fans or people in general.
Robert Fripp - well Maani might have had a good meeting with him.. but I have seen him be rude and disrespectful on several occasions. He is a strange character and you have to watch what you say around him...
David Gilmour - lovely, generous and sweet... altho in recent years he's not as outgoing as he used to be... but then if you had millions of people trying to still get to you after all these years.. asking the same damn questions.. and you're 59 years old, have 8 kids, 4 small ones still at home... you'd be a bit cranky also!
Roger Waters... right up there with Fripp... he can be nice, and then he will say the most stupidiest things... he can't seem to control himself...
Rick Wakeman - funny, charming.. and can't resist a lovely women.. Over the years, he seems to have become very comfortable with himself and it shows..
Jon Anderson - always a gentleman, but somehow in the last few years he's become so cheesy..
Steven Wilson - just adorable. According to the PT photographer.. Lasse, either Steven really liked me or I caught him on a really good day, but I had a great time with him. He let me pose him... and strangle him.. and he let me follow him around and take pictures while he shopped for obscure european metal albums... he did however buy the Godspeed You Black Emperor cd... and we had a great conversation about both not liking sports.. and what he's doing later with Blackfield... so yes, I did quite like Steven Wilson!

Blaming Collins for the Genesis downfall is completely wrong....
Do you think a cointrol freak such as Banks would've allowed a non-original member to change direction without his complete agreement. Read somewhere in the forum someone quoting Collins as saying about banks that : you could certainly not force Banks into something he did not totally agreed upon! This is the very reason for hackett leaving..... because banks would simply not do anything Hackett was to do, if he did not agree to it first!
So the blame for the genesis metamorphosis is to go to Banks.

I agree, you can't blame Phil for that; he didn't right all the material. Also, we cannot forget that even Mike was leaning on the poppier side of things....Mike and the Mechanics. I am assuming that is correct about Banks (I really don't know myself), but seriously STOP placing the blame only on Phil.

Okay,what's the meaning of "A-Hole" here?
Cause I see Fripp (and Emerson) and I don't know why...

Fripp and Waters. I want to say Wakeman, but the curry thing makes me laugh.

Don't understand why people are tempted to say Wakeman. He seems like a funny guy.
