Michelle ggurl Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Guy stuff. Chicks like Bon Jovi, they can't stand ELP or YES (the majority of em, not all). RUSH to them is like "Steel Magnolias" to us. Crimson to them is like us watching Oprah interview Sally Field. Mm, yes and no. I know at least a few women who like Rush (and they are not musicians, either). The other bands don't really translate across the sexes as much, I've noticed. Not sure why that is. I have a passing interest at best in most prog, but I was a HUGE Rush fan, still like 'em. I liked Genesis too, and that is another band that some women also like. The only thing I can think of is, perhaps those two bands have material that seems less cerebral in their catalog along with what is more traditionally intensely prog.

Crimson to them is like us watching Oprah interview Sally Field. Mm, yes and no. I know at least a few women who like Rush (and they are not musicians, either). There are a few of course. I have the Rush "Show of Hands" concert video, and when they show the audience, there's a chick out there. For the younger fellas here who might not be attached: If you're out on a first date with a gal and you really don't want to have a second, casually slip "Greggery Peccary" by Zappa into your CD player. You won't have a second date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I can think of is, perhaps those two bands have material that seems less cerebral in their catalog along with what is more traditionally intensely prog. My wife enjoys Genesis as well, along with Renaissance, and a few Yes and ELP tunes. That's because we've both listened to a lot of that over the years, especially in the car. She also enjoys some of the more obscure bands I listen to, such as Clannad, Icehouse, Talk Talk, Roxy Music, etc. When an eel hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a Moray.

Maybe this is the best place for a shameless plug! Our now not-so-new new video at https://youtu.be/3ZRC3b4p4EI is a 40 minute adaptation of T. S. Eliot's "Prufrock" - check it out!
