	Neo-progressive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Neo-progressive was an effort to fuse the complex structures and sounds of progressive rock of the 1970s (e.g., Genesis and King Crimson) to 1980s pop music.
		Marillion is almost certainly the most popular neo-prog band, peaking in popularity with their albums Misplaced Childhood (1985) and Clutching at Straws (1987).
		Following this peak, neo-prog declined as a genre, although these three pioneering bands are still active as of 2004, and several newer groups have worked in the same space in the 1990s and 2000s.

	Arena - LearnThis.Info Enclyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		An arena is a circular or oval shaped public space (akin to a classical amphitheatre), designed to showcase theater, musical performances, or sporting events.
		Usually, an arena is designed to accommodate a very large number of spectators, such as New York City's Madison Square Garden or Pasadena's Rose Bowl.
		The term "arena" is also used loosely to refer to any event or type of event which either literally or metaphorically takes place in such a location--- often with the specific intent of comparing an idea to a sporting event, such as "the arena of war" or "the arena of love."

		One of her fondest memories of the band was the welcoming atmosphere that perpetually exists.
		At the band's 1994 spring concert, for example, the band performed pieces by Giannini, Bernstein and Sousa; accompanied a professional saxophonist from the area; and became players in a children's skit entitled "Tubby the Tuba," complete with narration by one of the band members.
		Band members do not receive credit for their efforts, and attendance at each rehearsal is not mandatory (although a 33% attendance policy is enforced).

		Arena’s new work is not only a worthy successor to “Contagion,” but the most powerful and varied album in the band’s history.
		The members of Arena’s current incarnation - Clive Nolan on keyboards, drummer Mick Pointer, guitarist John Mitchell, singer Rob Sowden and bassist Ian Salmon - not only appear as comic heroes on the album cover, but there is a story about each of them printed in the booklet.
		The new boy had no problem convincing the most die-hard Arena fans that he was the man for the job, when he made his debut during a fan club convention in Holland in May 1999.

		Things that the band had agreed to do were clashing with things that the band had to do, they just never had enough hours in the day or days of the week to cram everything and everyone in.
		The band were back at the same arena four days later for a storming gig on the 20th of February, but it turned out to be one hell of a rush for the band that night.
		As they entered the arena the band were full of smiles and took the time to wave to the fans inside the arena via the outside cameras.

		But when the electricity kicks in, Arena wants her trip South to be for the blues life.
		Arena sings that blues " found me in the dark....came round and fixed my broken heart." This alone may exemplify the change in perception of the blues over the years.
		Arena's versatility as a singer/songwriter is evident on her second line beat on "Listen To What I Say" and her big band jazz take on two from the Buddy Johnson songbook, " Any Day Now" and "About To Break My Heart".

	Der Salsaholic - Kontaktbörse - Arena (Venezuela)

	Get Ready to ROCK! Review of CD album by progressive rock band Arena called Pepper's Ghost
		I first heard Arena via their excellent ‘Contagion’ album released in early 2003, one of that year’s albums of the year.
		This release also marks the band’s 10th anniversary and there are some changes to the band’s sound - more metallic guitar riffs for starters.
		Arena have done it again and produced a fine album full of musical delights and songs that never lose sight of melody.

	Metroactive Music \| U2
		Thus, my question as I approached National Car Rental Arena in the waning light of day was whether U2 would be able to overcome the twin drawbacks of an aging fan base and an inhospitable concert environment and forge the kind of quasi-religious experience that the group is known for.
		The arena is owned and operated by the owners of the San Jose Sharks organization, and thanks to a deal cut with the city of San Jose early in its history, the franchise pockets the profit from concerts.
		And it explains why, in the last few years, the arena has gone out of its way to develop that reputation as a good place for rock concerts, mainly by hiring a talent buyer who makes sure the building puts in a bid for whatever rock tour is on the road.

		But if you love ARENA’s music, this DVD is a definitely a MUST for you as this is the first full live set DVD from the band, as far as I know.
		If you enjoy Arena music, you would be emotionally involved with the music during the show and this video would pour you with a stream of acts and sounds that bring to ultimate satisfaction of your mind.
		Some of those bands carried a heavy truck full of lightning equipment and some bands like Marillion and Magenta had build a respectable concert reputation, even setting new standards in sound quality by the opinion of many newspapers.

	ARENA Songs From The Lion's Cage reviews and MP3
		Arena never really invented a genre, instead they improved a formula popularized by Marillion by pumping up the VU meter on the producer's mixing console.
		But the really outstanding things I admit for Arena are just their ability to create so nice and juicy melodies and brilliant technical skills by Clive Nolan and both guitarist which ever took part in the band’s records.
		Arena is a great band and this debut album was a classic right away.

	Aug. 30th-Miami,Fl.
		Wild Mood Swings is the name of the Cure's current CD and obviously the theme of the band's concert at the Miami Arena Friday night.
		Dry ice is a great metaphor where the Cure is concerned.The willowy smoke that seeped onstage Friday at Miami Arena bore some resemblance to the big, gauzy sound plied by Cure founder Robert Smith and his bandmates.
		Vocally,Smith was true to his stuffy-nosed whine.He sang without a spotlight ("Robert doesn't like spotlights in his face," a member of the arena's technical crew explained) and seemed quite cheery - smiling,accepting bouquets and touching extended hands during the band's eight-song,half-hour encore.

		The band was certainly in top form as they played hits from their 1991 earth-shattering debut Ten all the way through their recently released Riot Act.
		The band played a number of other songs and concluded the encore with “Betterman” and “Alive,” a song that again allowed McCready to go nuts on a solo or two.

	Volker Strifler Band at Point Arena
		Point Arena is an interesting town, like all sea towns it's a little bleached by the ocean.
		Gary Silva was driving the band with economy and participation, Don Bassey is so much more than a bass player, he's both a groove master and a harmonic player.
		We fantasized about having a small blues festival at the Arena Theatre and hiring a bus for the Santa Rosa fans, renting the big houses at the lighthouse and being able to attend the barbecue and surf-offs.

	FilteringCraig.com - Your daily dose of something or other
		While I am sure that is some hyperbole, I do believe that the band will be able to continue to operate almost entirely the exact same way as they did prior to signing the deal, due to a couple of key factors.
		This band plays very well to large theaters and clubs, but they don't have enough bombast to really fill out some of the larger basketball arenas around the country.
		Oh, and the good news is that the band is apparently already working on their first album for Atlantic coming up shortly.

	CD Baby: ARENA VENUS: Plucked - from rockandrollmark (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The band's debut EP, "Plucked," was released in July 2003.
		The rest of what I’m guessing is a backing band (I was tipped off by the credit “additional musicians”) does their job capably.
		I don’t know how often the “additional musicians” play with Arena Venus, but the lack of a steady lineup may be what’s behind the only real problem I have with the recording: the songs sound a little too studio and a little less live than I’d normally like.

		Beneath all the strutting and heavy-metal antics lies a band with more pop savvy than a dozen Journeys, as well as the chops to pull hooks from the most unlikely places.
		But what really makes this record work is the fact that Van Halen uses all this flash as a means to an end – driving the melody home – rather than as an end in itself.
		Every song hits harder than expected, until by album's end you're convinced that, despite all the bluster, Van Halen is one of the smartest, toughest bands in rock and roll.

		Tonight (Sunday 9th November), at the album launch party of his band Solar's new album, he is clad all in fl leather, complete with long tassles on the sleeves.
		After the launch Solar hope to conquer Manchester and Liverpool, and even cover his other band Arena's stomping ground on the continent.
		The attention was diverted for the last part to a man filming a young lace-clad girl in fl who stood on her own at the front looking longingly at the band and fingering her belt - it caused much amusement but was not a good move if the band wanted all the limelight.

		Also included here is a limited-edition bonus disc containing three bonus tracks and a band documentary on CD-Rom which will fill in the gaps for those just discovering their talents.
