that's bullsh*t though, their should be two leagues.   One for England and Italy, one for Everything Else.  It's not fair to have one band from England. 

And no way Austria AND Germany gets a band!

This idea oddly intreges(sp?) me. Although i agree, one band from britian. And germany and austria are two different places, they deserve two different bands.

I agree with you there, there are so many good bands from some countries and some don't even have many at all.

No Floyd, also if I love all their albums until The Wall, because IMO KC are strictly more Prog than PF and never did albums as The Final Cut or The Division Bell...

For Wales, it's either Gnidrolog or Man (I prefer the latter, but many love Gnidirolog), in my opinion.

For Ireland, I'd suggest Fruupp- they have become one of my favourite groups since I heard their 2-CD anthology 'It's All Up Now'.
