Thank You Fates!

[ivorygate]

I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right forum, but I just want to say thank you Jim, Ray, Frank, and co for remaining true to yourselves for all these years. It would be hard to overestimate the influence you guys have had on progressive rock - Fates Warning built the bridge between Prog and Metal. As a fan since I (and you!) were pretty much kids (I bought Night on Brocken when it first came out w/old cover - on vinyl!), I just want to say you guys are class acts and deserve the utmost respect and credit. For me it's like this:
What Zeppelin did for Rock,
What Sabbath did for Metal,
What Rush did for Prog,
Fates Warning has done for Progressive Metal.
Thanks for your music and all the bands that have come after you.
