Topic: Post 70's Prog World Cup FINAL: PT- Riverside Posted: December 06 2012 at 09:03 |
And how about when I changed the poll title and After Crying almost leaves Porcupine Tree out of the competition? That was fun. Some people wanted to incinerate me.

Remember the Dave Meros scandal? lol |
Oh I had forgotten about the Meros bit. That was one of the funner long running series of polls. I think people are still trying to capture some of the mystique of the tournament. It was a very good year . . .

Riverside for me. It was a close contest, as I love both bands, but Riverside win it with their edgier sound.

It's definitely been interesting, thanks Morningrise. But I hope you all do realize that for any poll that you open, Gandalff opens five.

Thank you.
Next year I'll probably do another one of these. I have a couple of interesting ideas around my head.

Over a year ago I went to a concert in another city, and I took I bus some guy here usually rents for going to the concerts. He usually puts some videos on the but during the journey, and this time he did put a concert from Porcupine Tree, and then one from Riverside. The first one bored me quiet a bit, Riverside's intrigued me and I thought I should get somethin from them... sadly I still haven't. However, some time ago I checked a CD from Pocupine Tree on You Tube and did find it very good too, so I guess I will have to get some music from both of them when I can. Of course, right now I guess the easiest to find will be Steven Wilson's latest album, so I guess that will be the first one I'll get.

Most 'rapings' are in fact, undeserved.... | Could you name one single case in which a "raping" is deserved?

Well in a case to see which artist you like more, i'd first determine if you like them both. The time to determine that is personal. Whether you fall in love with a band after 1 song or after hearing their entire output is up to you.
But to vote against a band you haven't heard at all isn't fair or wise.
