WOW!
Being an ex-Orange, and remembering days of Hunington Beach being known to us "Headbangers" as "Metal Beach" because of the KNAC bumper Stickers all over the place, its nice to know 'someone' from Orange County appreciates all things "Progressive"!
Yes, we are out there, scowering the internet, deep within the aisle of Record shops looking for the bands NO ONE has heard of, because they don't make "Hit Singles . . . They CRAFT "Albums"! And they are not secluded to OUR borders, but they hail from all over the world! Hehe, I concur with JF, its "Camera Eye", my fave song on that Album (and RUSH my all time fave band).
I would hope people who are curious or never heard of such bands will search out this music of Progressive Rock/Metal and all its "sub-genre's" for intelligent, yes-over the top, but would make Paginnini, Bethoven, Wagner, Miles Davis, Jaco Pastorius and Buddy Rich Proud!
If anyone would like to hear more examples of this music, please try "Progulus" (Prog from the late 60's to Present), an Internet Prog Station, and a real friendly community as well.
Thank you Matt Levin for exposing this awesome music to your fellow Orange County readers.
And Jordan, you will be happy to know that their are younger fans than you, and older fans than me (Im 44) from all around the globe :D
Prog On!

Oh my God . . .
Forgive folks, I was notified about this from "Prog Archives" via email, and I thought this was Orange "Ca." Forgive me students and Syracuse NY (Well, NY is home of Dream Theater), You got the Rush song wrong, I get the State wrong . . . ouch.

Huzzah for SU appreciating the magnificence of prog rock! I was the weirdo in Flint blasting DT and Rush louder than 3am door slamming (and THAT is loud). As a publicist by day (and prog rocker by night/weekends) I am grateful to you, Mr. Levin for keeping journalistic integrity alive at Syracuse University.
