4) Rush
Anyhow, yeah, there was a lot of excess in the 70's, no question. Wasn't just confined to prog-rock though - disco culture, anyone?  | Don't forget floyd dude... dark side was on the charts for what 3 million weeks... lol |

it's by Wayne Gladstone (a cracked.com contributor, he does "Hate by Numbers"), the first time i read it I nearly fell off my chair laughing (especially that bit about "The Trees")
I think us prog rockers have (and have to have!) a good ability to laugh at ourselves and the type of music we love so very much
