If you were planning Prog Nation '09...

[BefriendedUnit]

Hmm... average out the ones mentioned and add King Crimson.

 

[Morfeind]

Cynic would be a great fit! Agalloch has a hard enough time fitting in a handful of live shows a year so I doubt we'll see them on a big tour like PN. Love to see Katatonia as well, even though they're not that progressive. PT is also a good fit.

 

[intension]

Battles
Man Man
Animal Collective
Porcupine Tree
Isis
Jesu
Meshuggah

 

[Blackwater Demon]

Pink Floyd
Opeth
Tool
Symphony X

 

[Heir Apparent]

ProgNation 09'

Enslaved
Devin Townsend Band
Mars Volta
Opeth

 

[Shredzilla]

Bless you for naming Cynic! I actually forgot about them for a second. Great band, and I'd love to see them at PN next year!

 

[Unbelievable21]

Well, Progressive Nation is DT's tour, so they'll probably always be playing it...

lol, If you aren't going to add DT, you might as well call it another title.

 

[duncang]

Russian Circles
dredg
God Is An Astronaut
Opeth

 

[Napalmdeath92]

Dream theater
Opeth
Symphony-X
Amon Amarth

That would be awesome. Oh and Symphony-x has to play divine wings of tragedy. all the way through. the whole damn song lol.

 

[Napalmdeath92]

ProgNation 09'

Enslaved
Devin Townsend Band
Mars Volta
Opeth

mars volta?
wtf?

 

[Kenneth R.]

Scar Symmetry
Anathema

[Unbelievable21]

Well then, it's not something for everyone, because I do not care for, or do not know, any of those bands.

 

[Tangled]

Opeth
Floyd reunited
Porcupine Tree
Three (I thought Three was fucking amazing)

DT if they have to be.

 

[Brave.Archangel]

WHY IS EVERYONE SAYING ANATHEMA. THEY AREN'T PROG WHATSOEVER

 

[Narek]

^Well they have PROGressed from a doom metal band into a more atmospheric rock band.

Some of these lists are crazy, in a good way.

But SADLY, David Gilmour has his head REALLY far up his ass, not only will he not allow a Pink Floyd reunion; he has also HATES metal music, he turned down the offer to be on one of the Ayreon CD's, he doesn't even want to be associated with any metal material. *sigh*

 

[Sad Madrigal]

I would like to see Anekdoten also

 

[brownden]

Openers: Agalloch, Novembre
Co-headliners: Porcupine Tree, Katatonia & Opeth

 

[SerenityNow!]

reinforced tour

Queensryche
Anathema
Porcupine Tree
Opeth
Dream Theater
Rush
Pink Floyd [reunited]

period

My vote!!!

You know what? Why don't we make this a weekend long touring festival? I know there's already fests like PorgPower, but their should always be more than one progressive rock/metal fests. But ProgPower isn't touring, it's one weekend and that's it! So...

"The Reinforced Progressive Nation Traveling Circus"

Opeth
Queensryche
Anathema
Dream Theater
Rush
Pink Floyd
Symphony X
Porcupine Tree
Orphaned Land
Dark Suns
Darkwater
Agalloch
Yes
Deadsoul Tribe
Kamelot
Evergrey
Threshold
Thought Chamber
King Crimson
Zero Hour
Spheric Universe Experience

Alright, I'll stop for now. There are so many bands out there to add, it's difficult.

These were in no order, and now we have to divide bands into days for the weekend fest!!!


Sorry to pirate your thread RoadKing!

 

[in_my_time_of_disease]

Given this is hypothetical, I'll put bands that don't play live and call it "RapeNation09" because that is what it would do.
Head- Opeth
Co-Head- Enslaved
Supported by Deathspell Omega and Negura Bunget.

 

[Kenneth R.]

Well then, it's not something for everyone, because I do not care for, or do not know, any of those bands.

I'm certain you'd like one of them.
