 Topic: The Prog Quiz...Posted: August 18 2012 at 08:16 |
|
I know about this video for sometime ago, and I thought it would be fun to post it here for you!
I'm sure a great many know it already, but surely there are some that have no idea. It is a Prog quiz with Steve Wilson (Porcupine Tree) Vs. Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth). Watch it, is very good!  |

Well, it shows that one is a fan of prog rock, and the other one is not a fan of prog rock.

I knew most of them.
And I think Mikael knew more than he was able to answer, but SWilson was too fast for him! And SWilson is obviously a fan of classic prog. |

I only missed one. The one about which football team's fans appeared on the song Fearless. I rock.

I didn't know many of them, mainly due to not being a fan of Genesis, but I got a couple.

Yes, definitely more difficult but was surprised by all the Marillion questions. Anyway, 10 out of 15 isn't bad at all. Of course the other quiz was easier and every prog fan should have known the answers to those questions.

I think I knew all the answers to the first one. They were rather easy.
But this second one is tough! I also had no idea about it. Thank you 'Horizons' for posting it! |

The first one was rather easy and I'm surprised that Mikael missed so many of them.
The second one was harder, kudos to Steven!

I'm with Mikael on this one. I'm terrible at this kind of thing especially if you have some smart arse chipping in before you've even had time to think about anything. I know the first three Genesis live albums

I don't think Wilson was being a smartass at all. He simply knew the answers and Mikael did not. It is a quiz after all and it's meant for purely entertainment purposes.

Hey, I knew that one too! I also knew the Hemispheres one, and maybe a couple more, but I definitely didn't know the Camel one or the one about the football team.

I agree with 'Mirror Image'.
I don't think Wilson needs to 'Show off'. Everybody knows who he is, and what he does. He was just very quick to his answers. I'm also sure that Mikael might knew a few more, but he didn't had the time to reply. Wilson was like a machine gun!  |
