French prog rock band

[TimR]

Bit of a long shot here. I just ran the Paris Marathon this morning. I'm now sitting outside a cafe with a cold beer and a ham and cheese sandwich taking in the atmos.

Anyway, enough of the boasting

There was an awesome band around mile 24, the name began with a P, I knew I should have taken a photo or made a note but quite frankly I was concentrating on not dying at the time.

Any leads? They were really good and I suspect amatuer band as they had a band nearly every mile.

Anyone in Paris with a half decent band should contact the organisers, there were very good and there were some terrible.

There's a very good French band called Phoenix, not sure I'd say they were proggy...

Pulsar? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar_(band)

(look at the actual state of them)

I think the band you're looking for were Prolog. They were playing at Rue Point du jour (about 37k into the run)

I'm quite partial to a bit of French prog - I've seen Magma and Ange several times

That's them. Thanks. Superb from the two or three minutes I heard. I'll definitely look them up.

My old vocalist in Paris appears to know them.
