So far what you've posted is kind of derivative, kind of stuck in the ELP wing of the library. I remain unimpressed.
These bands all have one thing in common:
I've seen Max multiple times. The hat thing was hilarious.
Saga is, well, Saga.
Mahogany Rush played with Nazareth. Knife hits out in the parking lot helped.
I was going to post Nash The Slash, but FM is one of those seminal prog bands. I saw Nash at a college student union event; very strange show.
Klaatu has to be one of my all-time favorites, and one I never had the good luck to see.

Tough crowd.
It's was lies closest to my heart. The mellotrons, the big ludwig drums, the flutes, the 12 strings, the moogs. I mean A passion play is my nr one record. hmm, didnt know ut was a competition. But i'll digg up some.
One thing tho, i really dont like that math rock shit. Don Caballo (pun intented) etc. Drives me mad.
DId you know Klaatu got people fooled that they where the new reformed beatles.

Some newer Canadian prog.
I use Spotify to discover new bands. This one of them.
I listen to the KEXP shows quite a bit. They showcase some pretty original bands. Holy Fuck might be a little too electronic for Alex, though.

Empath leaked
Most of the way through and the album is nuts in a good way. Devy at his goofiest without Ziltoid type stuff taking focus.

Fuck yeah on Umphrey's McGee. That's my favorite band. Seen them like 80 times. No joke. Kris Myers on drums is a fucking animal.
Some other jammy prog. I love this type of music. So tight yet so loose. The drummer in this band is actually a really good friend of mine. We were in the music scene together in our Cincinnati days.
And of course Snarky Puppy. Next level prog jazz.

I saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964. I remember it clearly: The family gathered in the living room. The girls screaming on TV, my sisters screaming on the couch, the excitement . . . I was six years old and already hooked.

I really want to see King Crimson, but the closest they're playing is in Cleveland (I'm 5 hours away in Michigan), and tickets are $75. Tho I don't think I have anyone willing to go with me, so at least I'd only have to buy one ticket...
I've got cancer, and every time I've gone to make a bucket list, seeing King Crimson live is the only thing I'm really even sure I want on there. But I'm broke as shit. Even if I make it through treatment and live to be an old man, King Crimson are old themselves and might not be around much longer. But I don't think I'm going to be able to see them. So fucking bummed about it.
Anyway, here's an interview with King Crimson mastermind Robert Fripp that Rolling Stone posted today
