High Hopes for a Great Tournament!
OK, everyone, we're off!
I consider it an honor to face off with fellow proggers and/or music enthusiasts, so hats off to all! This should be a great opportunity for cultural exchange on musical undestanding and appreciation. I have HIGH HOPES that this will be a great tournament for all of us in this regard, as we have 6 representatives from North America (5 from USA, 1 from Mexico), 1 from Central America (Guatemala), and 5 from the cradle of prog, Europe (2 from United Kingdom, 1 from Scotland, 1 from Greece, and 1 from Ireland).
That said, you might like to check out this link for one of my favourite (relatively modern) Floyd songs; the combination of lyrics, haunting musical progression, and evocative scenery are almost flawless. Enjoy!

And last but not least, may the best progger win!
