Like the singer and guitarist of most Floydesque styled band Pendragon was named Nick Barrett. He even follows Dave Gilmour's style...
Have you heard of anything similar?

Rael is as you all know the protanganist in Lamb Lies Down on the Broadway. There is a cult called the Raelians who belive humans were cloned from aliens. Genesis has many biblical refrences, such as Peter Gabriel, Lamb lies down on the Broadway, and the most obvious being the bands name.
Coincidence, I think not!

Emerson and Lake replaced Palmer with another drummer whose surname also began with 'P'. How spooky is that?

In Yes, Trevor Horn replaced Jon Anderson for the Drama album. Then, all of
the sudden, Trevor Horn was out of the band, but produced Yes' next album,
90125, and Trevor Rabin joined the band. Coincidence? Hardly.

Sax player Nik Turner was a member of Hawkwind, as was the late singer Robert Calvert. He (Turner) also played with Mother Gong for some time (or more exactly with the Radio Actors, who even published a single; and one previously unreleased track of the Radio Actors, "Machine Love", is included on the first album of the "Robot Woman" trilogy, with some added sighs and whispers by Gilli Smyth). In the 80s Mother Gong was joined by a new sax player named Robert Calvert (who had played with Catapilla).

Pendragon Floydesque??
I always saw them as one of the most Genesis influenced bands from Neo Prog.

As mentioned on another thread: Dave Stewart (Hatfield and The North)
once played on the same album as Dave Stewart (Eurythmics, Curve), one
of which was credited as David Stewart.

Awesome! I always wondered if those two ever played on the same album anywhere.
Which one was "David" and which one was "Dave"?

In and around the lake...

I am not sure, it is mentioned on another thread somewhere, but I don't
think the poster knew who was David and who was Dave, I guess a google
search could find it out..., I'll try and find the post in question.

I hope that kind of helps.
