Heh Well A bit back there was a thread here on weather Coheed and Cambria were prog, I was arguing that they were not, the next day at school some dude had a coheed and cambria t-shirt on, so I (being the nerdy prog freak I am) immediatly went up to him and started ranting on all the reasons they were not prog.
If anyone knows where I can get a copy of some Flute and Voice (Indo-Prog/Raga Rock) albums please PM me! Many thanks!

I haven't done anything overly weird. I don't consider air instruments or singing to be weird, since I do them all the time. I guess the strangest thing I've done was listen to only Dream Theater, in chronological order from the start, in the two weeks leading up to the release of Octavarium. With the massive collection of stuff I have by them, it wasn't particularly difficult.

I just remembered one more thing: my familiy gave me a ticket to a Fcous show for my birthday. the thing is, they thought I was a Fcous fan because of my girl. She likes focuas a lot, so I bought some music for her. I had to change my front ticket (I was quite broke by the time) for two tickets on that section that lies beside the beside, so we could go together and hugh while they were playing. Not very weird, I guess, but its something. I love Mercedes so much...

...not very weird or original, but i play "invisible" instruments (mainly drums, guitar and bass) in front of my hifi system.
...but you should ask to Alucard, maybe he'd tell you what he does when he's alone...

Try the following equipment: High Pitch Vocal Balls Compresor Pedal. I think it'll work.

Living in the Third World like cuncuna, I know how difficult it was 'till some years ago (and the blessed internet) to find information and stuff about prog bands (and 60 and 70's bands in general).

well, the most crazy thing I've done about prog is the same I think all of you have tried someday in your life: introduce this world to my friends. They never could listen one simple song without making stupid comments or silly jokes about my musical taste. That's the reason why I have no comunication to the outside world about music, beside forums like this.
