ITCOTCK came out before Rush's eponymous debut, which wasn't even really prog.  So give it even a few more years before they really made a splash in the prog world.

I don't know what the most important event in the history of prog is, but I know it has nothing to do with Steven Wilson. :biggrin:

Honestly I can't really see a spike or drop in the quality of Neal Morse's stuff post-conversion.  It's about the same with the exception of the lyrical content.  If anything, I prefer Transatlantic and Spock's Beard to his solo stuff for the most part.

And LOL @ BrotherH.  Testimony is by far the worst Neal Morse solo album.

You failed more than once in that post.  Just so you know.
"All great works are prepared in the desert, including the redemption of the world. The precursors, the followers, the Master Himself, all obeyed or have to obey one and the same law. Prophets, apostles, preachers, martyrs, pioneers of knowledge, inspired artists in every art, ordinary men and the Man-God, all pay tribute to loneliness, to the life of silence, to the night." - A. G. Sertillanges

I don't know the meaning of the word "fail".

I counted four fails.

It will be the drummer announcement.

Cole: "Ow I just got hit in the balls"
Me: "How?"
Cole: "Well you know when you try to scratch your balls, and you scratch too hard?
I'll admit sometimes I want to listen to Dragonforce.

Roy Khan just found Jesus. He and Morse should form a band. THAT will be amazing.

It was important indeed, but not the single most important thing. I can't think of many other events as I'm not that knowledgeable in the history of 'progressive' music.
