Don't forget Rabbit Proof Fence

Wayne's World, anybody? That is, if you consider Bohemian Rhapsody to be prog.

who wouldn't... if that ain't prog... what the hell IS hahha. Oh wait. .I forgot...  it actually was popular and achieved some measure of commercial success and notoriety.  That discounts it.

On a similar note, Sara Jessica Parker once had a Yes T shirt. I remember there was a video link in this site...

oh wait, just rememberd, to all the english/irish peeps here would may know the old'ish TV show "Banzai"

i was watching it the other day, and as you may know if ya watch the show, its like a parody japenese/chinese game show type deal where you have to bet on certain silly games

anyway, last week i was watchin a few shows and that guy Fish was on, and the game was to see if an old woman could finish her whole pint of beer by the time Fish began singing the intro to his song,

i dont know antything about fish so im afraid i dont know the song, but im sure its prob on youtube,

oh and then they had another round where it was the same idea except the old woman had to get to the top of her stairs on her electric chair stairs seat thing'e before fish sang the intro

I have no idea who this band are, but would really like to know; so if anybody knows please tell me I believe the song you're referring to is called the Pink Room. (you are talking about the song with the bowed bass, heavy guitars, and a hard driving drum beat?)  If so it's only a little over four minutes on the soundtrack, maybe it just seemed that long.  I'll have to check my soundtrack CD when I get home, but I think it's not a real band but a Lynch/Badalamenti concoction.

We must not forget the great movie American Psycho, which not only features the lead character playing a little Genesis on his stereo, along with Phil Collins while two prostitutes are getting it on, but a classic dialog on how he didn't like the proggy Genesis of the 70s, but likes their more pop direction in the 80s, especially "In Too Deep". I think he specifically mention the great 'ensemble playing of Collins Banks and Rutherford on Duke'.........

I've been tempted to watch that one because of who is on the soundtrack, despite the fact that I have no interest in sports whatsoever, thanks for the warning.
