Rio sounds good to me..

Genesis (with Gabriel)
Rush
Genesis (Without Gabriel)
Genesis (With Hackett & Bruford)
Genesis (With Hackett and Thompson)
Genesis (With Steurmer & Thompson)

ELP can play at lunchtime. They get half hour. Just enough time to play Tarkus & Lucky man.

For the inaugural meeting I suggest Zaire, circa 1974 with the following entertainment.....

Ladies and gents,

in the blue corner!!!!! - weighing in at 85 pounds give or take 40 pounds.... with a record of a few pyrhhic victories, most of them by endlessly debating the point until death by sheer boredom occurs..... all the way from glamorous uhhhh Bolton, the Dude of Rude, The Fiend of Spleen, The (wannabe) Manc of Angst, the one, the only.......Reed Lover!!!!

And in the red corner!!!!........ Weighing in with yet another pompous ill-founded, blinkered, scarily obsessive opinion and with a record of about 98 per cent against and 3F8s for.......all the way from Linda's fevered imagination...........The El' in ELP, the p in something beginning with P (oh Palmer probably), yes, the S in scarily obsessed stalker-like creature who'd probably let Keith Emerson have him in some kind of Biblical, Sodom and Gomorrah type way and afterwards cry and say thank you sir, can I have another......   KarnEvil9!!!!!!!!

To paraphrase Jethro Tull  and ELP together

Welcome back my friends...... to the Bungle in the Jungle!!!!!

Now that would be fun to watch

the

followed of course by Celebrity Deathmatch between

Rush!!! (hooray!!!!)  - featuring

Alex 'Miami Vice' Lifeson

Geddy 'The Grinch' Lee

and

Neil 'This moustache is a deadly weapon' Peart

versus

ELP (booooooo!!!)

featuring

Greg 'Two Tons of Fun' Lake

Carl 'Gumby' Palmer

and

Keith 'This worn out blues figure is brought to you by the good people at cod-classics R Us' Emerson

Cod Classics - when your tired and weary, sad and dreary r&b stylings need a sprucing up we're there with a slice of Viv, a pinch of Wolfie and just the right dash of Ludwig Van - There's nothing fishy about our cod classics!

It's my imagination and I'll waste it whatever way I see fit

At the moment I'm wasting it imagining that you might actually develop a sense of humour one day

That was meant to be funny.... I think its you that needs to get some humor...

Coincidentally, Marillion have just done what we've been discussing by holding a three day convention in Minehead un the UK over the weekend (Fri 11th - Sun 14th). Fans travel from all over the world to see the band play recent/ancient/rare material and resist the urge to shout 'GRENDEL!' at the top of their voices at inappropriate moments.

I couldn't go this year but I'll be there next year so if there are any forum members planning on doing the same, PM me closer to the date as I'd love to meet any of you guys/girls/obsessive in the flesh.

Arcer I believe will be comparing the event on current form.

The ideal prog meeting would take place in Atlantis, or possibly Stonehenge.

Runner ups: Parthenon, Valley of the Kings, maybe Pompeii...Rio is nice, but it just doesn't have that unhealthy ancient mouldering quality.

Personally, my choice of ultimate venue is the ISS.
