Really hoping this is a miscommunication/error of some kind. Tix for the other dates are still on sale.
The Radiant site still lists all of the previously announced tour dates - I checked in on...
Just listened to the single for the fourth time. Like it or not I find myself perplexed by the comments about how he will surely "find himself a bigger audience" and that this is pop or mainstream. ...
Listened to Kaleidoscope on a run this week. The opening and closing epics stand up against their best stuff. Underrated disc, methinks.

During some of the announcements at last years "Morsefest" the MC made a comment that next years Morsefest would be "extremely special" and should not be missed. I immediately thought of...
For the past several months there has been talk of a new EP from Mr. Mister. This has turned into three "new" tracks added onto a re-issue of the criminally underrated "Pull" record. The three new...

Attending Sunday - essentially to chaperone my kids. They will be watching various bands and artists they follow.
I've scoured the schedule looking for an act that may be remotely interesting to...
A classic in my mind. I get how it gets overshadowed by the previous records but I can enjoy this selection of songs as much as any in their catalog. Still remember in '94 seeing the Kansas band...
Haven't seen anything posted yet on these guys. Excellent CD - this tune is one of the more accessible. If I had to compare it to anything I would say there is a strong Toto vibe but that's...
The venue for the show in St. Charles, Il has been shut down for code violations. Hopefully it can be rectified by the time of the show.
I was stunned how much I enjoyed the recent Kansas show. Had to admit - enjoyed it as much if not more than the run of shows I saw in the late 90's with Walsh/Steindhart in the band.
Of course...
While in my late teens ('89) my brother gave me a recording of a recent Todd show broadcast on the radio in Chicago. It was the Nearly Human tour and it was - if you'll allow for hyperbole -as close...
Neal Morse submitted songs to Kansas for their last record (I believe he released them as part of his Inner Circle).
I believe "Broken Sky" from SOAD was one of those tunes. Once I heard that it's...

Perhaps my favorite tune this year. Matt Scannel stated at at show this year this tune was inspired by playing with Neil Peart.
Vertical Horizon are...
Enjoyed both songs on your page - well done.

Waiting for this to drop through the post.
Anyone who has received theirs have thoughts on the new mix?
Apparently Livgren tweeted in response to this interview, particularly about the idea of him being "retired." Pointed out he has never retired or been inactive as far as music goes.
Attended the Chicago show last night. As Walsh's biggest fan (including present day "Black Butterfly" version) even I had to admit last nights show was one of the best setlists I've ever seen -...
Just saw the setlist for the new tour that started last night. I hope it's real because this is an absolute hardcore fan's dream.
Playing Lonely Wind, Hope Once Again, Cold Grey Morning,...

Over thirty minutes of new music from the Big Man from his upcoming swan song due next year.
Didn't care for the pre-release track "Man With A Stick" upon the first...
There have been some "mainstream" releases that haven't got much traction in this thread.
Kino - Radio Voltaire
Spock's Beard - Noise Floor
The Sea Within
Plus the new Pineapple Thief just...
Went to see Flying Colors in Chicago - ended up spending my money on CD's and vinyl of the opening act 'Bend Sinister.' Truly blew me away. Came across as Queen fronted by Meatloaf.
Summer of '90. 18 years old. Had just gotten into Triumph a few years before and was majorly bummed about Rik Emmett leaving. Happened to be visiting a friend in Canada and heard Rik Emmett was...
Wilson has stated in interviews that he used to go see Marillion in the early (early) days. He has also had a number of their new records in his "current playlist" upon their release.
Safe to say...
Big Big Train: Grimspound/SBS
Steve Walsh: Black Butterfly
S. Wilson: To The Bone
Elbow: Little Fictions
Styx: The Mission
Todd: White Knight
Lonely Robot: The Big Dream
Sons Of Apollo:...
I figure there has to some love for Jude Cole on this board. 'Start the Car' is one of my all time favorite records. Top notch songwriting, melodies and production.
Jude was one of what seemed...
Just saw the Kansas Band last night. As they blazed through Journey From Mariabronn, Lamplight Symphony and Magnum Opus I would love to be sitting next to a Kansas Prog-Denier and ask them what we...
Picked this up this morning (download version from Amazon).
I'm a huge Walsh fan - bordering on apologist -as I still enjoy his current "voice" - but I've had reservations about this release. ...
Thanks! No clue why I couldn't find it...
There is nothing listed on HD Tracks. Again, could you please post a link? Is this available in the US. I've seen one site that is not in English.
Thanks [QUOTE=progmeister;618476]It's in new...
Could you please post a link or otherwise that shows the record will be available on HD tracks. I'm desperate to hear this now in the states (release date next week)and that may be my best option.

Announced on Facebook. First time they have played an album front-to-back (also will be the first airing of "Questions of My Childhood")
Also of note - promoted as a "two hour show."
Dates...
Very interesting. I wasn't going to post this but now I'm intrigued. I got an email from a friend with some industry contacts - who has no reason to lie - that Livgren contributed "three or four"...
Perhaps my all time favorite concert memory was seeing Kansas in '91. It was their first midwest date since the Spirit tour and being pre-internet, had no clue who was in the band. When I got up in...
I too think something is possibly wrong with the notion that Walsh auditioned for the Yes gig before Big Generator (unless he auditioned twice, which is possible). I was lucky enough to get on...
Richard Williams confirmed in an interview today (clevescen.com) that Kansas will commence recording their 15 studio album in January.
I was bummed out when Walsh left - Kansas is my favorite...
Sorry I don't have the link, but in a recent interview (last couple of weeks?) linked in a Kansas tweet, Phil stated they will be recording a new studio album with Platt. He said all the things I...
I have been meaning to get the new record but I'm a bit surprised that the chatter over this release - good or bad - dried up that quickly. I don't think it has gotten any mentions in any "best of...

Kansas- Freaks of Nature

Walsh has stated in a few interviews that he "hates" all of the music he wrote for the band in the seventies. He didn't consider himself to become a competant songwriter until "Streets." It was...
Received the green vinyl yesterday - initial impressions after two listens: I like it, a lot.
Into the Blue - Most early reviews gave this track the nod as the standout piece on the record. I...

I just wanted to add to the chorus of those who are singing this albums praise. As someone who was not moved at all by post-Neal Beard (respect and appreciate Nick's drumming and bv but didn't care...
Haven't heard much chatter about this but Todd has a new studio CD dropping next month entitled "State." Has anyone got a clue what musical direction Todd is taking with this one? I thought "Liars"...
