All are tied with Rush for first. I chose to come to this forum for I felt Rush has a more intellectual fan base. Duuuuuh, yeah. We're like smart and stuff.

There may be a few exceptions, but what other bands other than Maiden or Blind Guardian reference so many things in history and literature?

TheBluePhoenix Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 QUOTE (apetersvt @ Sep 26 2011, 12:42 PM)QUOTE (TheBluePhoenix @ Sep 26 2011, 10:05 AM) 3. Also my number one favorite female artist is Joan Osborne. Yeah, I know what you're thinking: "Joan Osborne? WTF?" She's actually an extremely gifted singer. She's made a lot of great music since "One of Us" but unfortunately she gets no airplay and no support from her label. I guess you may know that Joan is now in the band Trigger Hippy. I had no idea. I go to her web site periodically and there has been no mention of that. I can appreciate her wanting to play with different people from time to time but I like her best as a solo artist. Her last album "Little Wild One" was great but as I said she gets no airplay and no support from her label so I doubt that many have heard it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todem Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Porcupine Tree No doubt they are my favorite behind Rush. Of course I love Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. But Pocupine Tree has been an obession for me since 2007 after hearing my first taste of them driving up to Tampa to catch leg one of the Snakes Tour. I popped on Fear of a Blank Planet spraked up and was blown away. It has been a love affair ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrysalii Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Pink Floyd, they actually got me in to music. I never really searched, and I didn't like what was on the radio. It was Pigs (Three Different Ones) that hooked me, and the strangeness of their discography really got me. That explains my avatar. hey had a giant inflatable pig for the concerts from Animals on. It became a symbol of Roger Waters departure when it got tied up in legal fights and the band put a giant genitalia on it. Other bands that can lay claim are Porcupine Tree (and Steven Wilson in general, but his best stuff is Porcupine Tree) and Dream Theater has recently become an obsession of mine. Also the standard cadre of Yes, The Who, Van Halen, Pearl Jam, and such that make up more of the list but it's really muddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I popped on Fear of a Blank Planet spraked up and was blown away. It has been a love affair ever since. I discovered Porcupine Tree thanks to another (now defunct) Rush board. They were an absolute revelation. I've collected everything from Signify on, and I've seen them twice in concert. Without a doubt, they are #2 behind the Holy Trinity.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
