thanks...I wish I had a better negative for this...did it before I started scanning (and did an ink T-shirt design before that that is long gone).

Great painting. Other than the fact that whenever I see or hear Genesis I think of those DAMN spitting image puppets.

hahah, yeah, I do remember that video...and those Spitting Image guys are incredible. Early Genesis I love...up until Steve Hackett left.

You're welcome, it's an awesome picture
I liked all the eras of Genesis, Gabriel and Collins. The first song I heard was I Can't Dance and then I pretty much got into them backwards. They're what got me into music in the first place. Thanks to them I listen to other great bands like Pink Floyd, Yes, Rush, just to name a few.

Yeah, prog is one of my favorite genres...if you like those bands and don't listen to King Crimson, you should...as well as, oh, maybe Porcupine Tree, Mercury Rev, Go (technically a Jazz fusion supergroup), etc. But Yes is way up there for me.

I love Porcupine Tree, I've seen them live twice They give a great show. I listen to King Crimson too. I've never heard of Mercury Rev, I'll have to go check them out.

Wow, lucky you...they would never show up here in Savannah. The best I can say is I saw Peter Gabriel once (as far as prog bands go) long ago as part of the Amnesty International tour...never saw Genesis, Crimson or Yes in their heyday.

Firestorm-the-Poet In reply to kenmeyerjr [2007-12-02 03:39:59 +0000 UTC]

I'd love to see Peter Gabriel, wish he'd go back out on tour It must have been a really good show. I finally got to see Genesis on the tour that they're doing now. It was awesome! The other band that I would love to see is Pink Floyd, but I don't think that will ever happen.

kenmeyerjr In reply to Firestorm-the-Poet [2007-12-03 04:43:41 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I don't want to see either of those bands now...it would just tarnish the memory I have of the earlier incarnations.

That is most amazing! I particularly love how you have painted Tony on the right. He looks every bit as gorgeous in this painting as he does in real life

That's alright, we just like to find as many fans as possible for the community, they tend to be scattered so its nice to have a "waiting room" for everyone to gather.

Yeah, love Gates...in fact, Relayer was the first Yes album I bought soooo long ago...partially because I saw the Roger Dean cover and thought it looked really neat.

it's an amaazing album cover, but all of them are *nod*
relayer was the first yes album i heard, it's the first my dad showed me and i tend to make my friends listen to it. yesterday a friend and i were listening to close to the edge, which was really fun.
