"What wonderful news to start 2009 with.
There's been some incredible new music released in 2008 and to be included with the other names in your top ten list is an honour.
A big thank you to yourself, and to the listeners who voted in the poll. We're all so happy that The Water Road appeared to touch so many people, and really appreciate everyone's support.
Keep up the good work and have a wonderful 2009 " - Thieves Kitchen

Interesting line here:

"The best way to think of them is as the albums Tony Banks could make if Tony made progressive rock solo albums instead of trying to match the chart success of Phil Collins and Mike Rutherford."

Re: Moon O'Poll 2008 Results

Live was OK. There wasn't supposed to greatest hits or compilations. Rush was even on Woj's list of 08 releases. Actually I didn't include the Rush myself, but meant to.
