Here is another great prog band site: http://www.insideoutmusic.com/

A lot of newer bands, along with a lot of audio and video downloads.

Wow! That is a lot of Prog bands. I wish I had the time to check even half of them out! Although... the site you listed Ron, says that they just now welcomed King's X to the site. I woulda thought they would've been one of the first couple dozen prog bands listed.

They are also a record label, and Kings X just signed with them on June 16th. That's the reason for the welcome.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh. Cool beans!

Hey! Kent from Grimm here...a question fer ya: Do you think most people hate progressive rock because it's CALLED progressive rock? How many Tool fans do you think realize that they're into a prog rock band?

p.s. You guys into Porcupine Tree at all? They're kind of like Yes meets Radiohead...saw 'em in Philly back in May...great show!

I just bought Porcupine Tree's Deadwing; excellent!

Also for you Kansas fans, check out Proto-Kaw, Kerry Livgren's reunion of the second Kansas line-up from the early 70's (before the third incarnation of Kansas, which hit it big). Their latest album is Before Became After; it's similar to the first three Kansas albums with more improvisation and jazz-styled fusion. They're supposed to release a new studio album in the fall. Their website is www.protokaw.com.

I saw Porcupine Tree live at the Bryce Jordan when they opened up for Yes. We had great seats (thanks Jason) , and PT was excellent.
