Sorry to start a somewhat duplicate thread, but I enjoyed the hell out of Wednesday night’s set and didn’t want to feel like I was voting a band off the island!

Loved, loved, loved the VP acoustic set. “Gethsemane (I Only Want To Say)” was *the* moment of the fest for me. Great song + brilliant vocals = pure magic!

Also loved hearing the cover of “Boat on the River.” This was especially fitting for me, as if I hadn’t fallen in love with Styx in the late 70s/early 80s, I probably would *not* have found myself at my sixth ProgPower 30 years later. (The local radio station that played the most Styx also happened to play Scorpions, Def Leppard, Iron Maiden, Dio, etc. – and you know the rest of the story…)

Thanks to the bands, Glenn, Jen, Shane, the crew, and all those who keep making magical moments happen!
