Behold... The Arctopus for PPUSA X!

Do I need to even say anything about this ridiculous oddball band?

Could we PLEASE have all wish list threads moved to their own forum?

I am so sick. and. fucking. TIRED. of seeing bleh bleh BLAH for ProgPower whatever threads.
Christ don't you people understand that Glenn has FORGOTTEN more about this genre than you will know? And he stays informed so that you will get to see bands you and everyone else will like...and avoid obscure bands that only YOU seem to like?

Don't you see that the most respected forum members almost NEVER start "O I wish I could see ___ band" threads? Maybe you should learn from the smarter people who post here.

LOL at Behold...the Arctopus being obscure.

And I can remember quite a few threads where people have suggested bands, Glenn comes in and says something like "wow this band isn't bad, I hadn't heard of them."

Not those exact words of course, but I can't be bothered to look for direct quotes right now. Also that would be just pointless.

Anyway, I love B...TA. Can't wait for their show in Atlanta with Intronaut and Mouth of the Architect.

Giving BtA a slot would do more for BtA than it would for ProgPower, being that BtA tours a lot throughout the US, but this would be a big crowd for them and mostly of people interested in their music.

Glenn doesn't seem interested in instrumental bands for ProgPower. So I'm doubting BtA will ever be on the roster. But who knows!

Definitely. I'm curious as to how their set at Maryland Deathfest went over.

Unfortunately Glenn won't book instrumental bands so I don't think you'll see Behold The Arctopus at ProgPower.
