Welcome.

So these are the best prog bands? Thanks for the heads up.

I've never actually heard of the Neal Morse Band. Must check  them out.

Hi Bluenipper.

Nightwish doesn't belong to the best PROG rock bands.

You will have the opportunity to broaden your tastes with PA (the bands you listed are quite "mainstream" in prog / metal world)

I don't mean to be cruel, but I hope that he takes the time to explore the classics such as King Crimson, Yes, Jethro Tull, Camel, Van Der Graaf Generator, Gentle Giant, etc. Apart from Rush, I don't like a single band on that list.

I seem to be the odd one out because one of my ultimate fav band's is Uriah Heep (with David Byron and Ken Hensley).

Welcome!
I like some other bands on the site like Genesis, Yes and ELP, but you've certainly come to the right site!
You'll find many here who like the bands you like.
And you might get some ideas for other bands, like happened to me.
I hope you have a good time here Handshake
