The whole thing with prog is that the music's bigger than the people who make it.
Can you think of one prog musician with the charisma and larger-than-life stature of Mick Jagger, or Rod Stewart, or Elton John? I can't. Ian Anderson comes closest, but with him it was so plainly an act by a smallish, funny-looking guy putting on a show. The onstage Mick, Rod, and Elton, though, are essentially bigger versions of who and what they are in real life - and that's what you need to be, to be to be a real rock star.
