First American Idol, then Christian Idol...now....Progressive Rock Idol!

[bbernardini]

Every episode would be 3 hours long, and contestants would get to sing such classics as:

Close To The Edge
Supper's Ready
Every song from "Tales from Topographic Oceans"
Karn Evil 9 (all 3 impressions)

I think it's a winner!

1. As much as I hated...

...'Tales from Topographic Oceans,' anything would be better than that Barry Manilow/Gloria Estefan dreck they have the Idol contestants sing now.

2. Maybe they could do dance edits!

That album probably needs to be shortened anyway. Cut down each piece to 4-5 minutes, and add a dance beat.

3. I don't know how big the audience for that would be...

Are there that many 45 year old virgins with acne issues who still play dungeons and dragons?

(Apologies to any 45 year old acne ridden dungeons and dragon playing virgins on the board....I didn't mean to insult you by implying that you liked prog rock).

4. I'm thinking 300-400 lbs. each.

HAW! </Nelson>

5. Christian Idol?

I thought there were Commandments against that.
