For your entertainment, I would like to submit Frost*. (NB the asterisk/frosterisk is important, as there's another band around called Frost). Anyway, try these out: Black Light Machine or Pocket Sun. Jem Godfrey put this band together and it features a number of people who play in several current prog bands in the UK, notably John Mitchell (also with It Bites, who deserve their own mention in this thread IMO). Frustratingly, it's something of a part-time project and albums/concerts are quite hard to come by. In fact, Godfrey has said he's taking 2011 out from Frost* to concentrate on other things. Still, waiting years between albums is quite a proggy thing, I suppose. Great thread, by the way!

Nobody Interesting posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMvMhCI7tOw This is quite nice. 11 minute prog ballad by some new English group. Another track on their album too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNg0yYX03Sc is great. I keep wanting them to just get on with it and break into "Stairway to Heaven". You know they want to!

Iucounu posted:Luckily it will be available for 24 hours after airing, so you should be able to catch what you missed. Marco and Guthrie had a tour obligation with their band The Aristocrats so they couldn't make the Western Hemisphere leg of the tour. Their temporary replacements are Dave Kilminster (played with Roger Waters on his many tours doing The Wall) on guitar and Craig Blundell (instructional video and drum clinic guy) on drums. Dammit, missed this! Blunders is an awesome drummer: check out his work with Frost*, such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cM3rocbCpk Is there any chance the Steven Wilson gig will be re-replayed?
