PT easily for me......as someone else said above one of the best modern prog bands and those who disparage Wilson have rocks in their head and wax clogging their ears. ;)
But then I don't get the love for some other artists so there ya go.

Just back from seeing Mr Wilson live and I'm pleased to report that news of his ''prog" death are "greatly exaggerated"

A good sprinkling of PT tracks too - with "Arriving Somewhere...", "Lazarus", "Even Less", "The Sound of Muzak", "Sleep Together", "Heart Attack in a Lay-By" and "The Creator Has a Mastertape" complementing a good choice of solo stuff too. The guy seems to be getting a sense of humour these days too....all is well with the World!

This is good to know. Seeing him in May, I suspected with his latest pop laden effort he would need to throw in quite a few PT and SW "prog" songs to keep fans in their seats LOL. He played Sleep Together the last tour and I really enjoyed the more metal version.
Arriving Somewhere will be a treat for sure!

^ Oh man, I had not been considering seeing him again in a while, since I saw him on his Raven tour, and was really excellent... but the music he had been playing was excellent, he played the whole Raven and the best from this previous two albums, and since the albums he did after were not so good, I did not expect his new shows to live up to what I already saw, so I prefered to choose some other bands to see. Now it seems it might be worth seeing him again (not that I ever though it wasn't worth seeing him again, anyway).
