Stick Men

Agreed! some times jazzy and heavy, others Crimsonian (there is no other word for it!)with symphonic touches and the rest of the time a wild mix of everything!
sent to the team for evaluation!

Just now listened to their stuffs ... like Crimson in Discipline era or Liquid Tension Experiment ... bravo desu!

I noticed that project still from Levin's solo album "Stick Men" (where their roots are). But - do they have released album? May be I missed it, but what I know, they are just live project, never recorded?

Original release date is May 11, 2010 (today!). It's a reason I didn't know!

Great! I believe they really should find their place on PA

I take it you're not in Santiago? I managed to see them the Friday after the quake. Tony Levin spoke Spanish the entire night and the band raised the Chilean flag at the end of the show. Needless to say, everyone was more than grateful for their visit.

Agreed. Seeing them cost me 40 dollars for the cheapest ticket. To put that into perspective, the Holdsworth/Bozzio/Levin/Mastelotto show in San Diego, CA cost about 25. I think we have to blame the transportation costs to a large degree.

That said, paying 20 dollars for the CD and an autograph and a chance to meet the band was an absolute bargain.

That is nothing...125 dollars here!

And people payed for it! the venue was full!

Marty, ProgressiveAttic voted yes (see Eclectic team thread for details).  I'm listening now (there is a bit of a backlog at the moment in Eclectic). Took me a couple of listens to be comfortable enough to say okay for Eclectic. So another yes, though mine is tepid as it gave me some reservations (as I think it could be Crossover worthy). I was expecting more experimental music, but it's actually quite mainstreamish oriented to these ears.  I might have suggested it to Crossover, but will give an "okay" for Eclectic.  Yeah, third spin of myspace, I'm fine with it and it does have a Crims feel and can be rather experimentalish. It does cross Fusion, Heavy, and have symphish qualities.  So yes (more positive about it now, brain's a bit soggy so it take me a while to absorb music properly).  Cleared, unless there are objections, if someone wants to prepare the addition (and if a non-SC wants to prepare it, I can add it for the person giving full credit for the addition).
