OK let me explain why I did this  Wink    .... I can`t ?  Confused    But one things for sure both these bands have absolutely nothing in common ... all but one thing ? they are either loved or hated , yep peoples reaction to these bands can swing very strongly one way or the other .  So which band do you prefer ... Rush or King Crimson ? Tongue

I didn`t want to add a can`t decide option , I just want to know the reality of how it is. Wink

They're both among my all-time favourite bands, so I can't really choose one over the other. They're extremely different from each other, but both great IMHO.

That's funny because your nickname is a Rush reference and your avatar is a King Crimson cover. LOL

I've yet to hear KC outdo Rush in terms of musicianship. Sonically, Rush impresses me more.

..but.. Mr. Fripp could play all Mr. Lifeson's licks with his tongue. TongueTongue

I adore both bands but King Crimson write much darker material and that's what I like. vote for ze crimsos

Man, you think so? I'd say Lifeson could blow the doors off Fripp.
