I was just wondering, does anyone on the site listen to any other genres of music besides prog?  I must say that Prog was not my first love, which was Alternative rock.  I still listen to my older loves, but have grown to listen to Prog, Metal, Classic rock, Funk, a little bit of jazz, and, (altough this may seem odd,) a lil' bit O' emo

 

So, any thoughts?

1/4 Prog

1/4 Heavy

1/4 Jazz

1/4 Classical

1/4 Other stuff

Of course I know it adds more than 1, but sometimes I listen to several things at the same time

My other genres are:

-60-70's hard rock (Zeppelin, Who, Hendrix, Purple, etc)

-Jazz (standard, latin, fussion)

-Italian "cantautori" (which sometimes crossover prog, see PFM-Fabrizio de Andrè)

-Salsa (Rubén Blades, Fania)

-My oldest doughter is listening to Dead metal, and i'm aquiring the taste... 

But nowadays my first choice is prog.

Please forgive me for my crappy english!

About a third prog, the other two thirds anything ranging from avant-garde to metal to folk (especially neo-folk) to jazz to a little hip-hop, to 19th century composers, etc. etc. etc.

Everything except R 'n B (the new kind). Stevie Wonder did it better and for f*ck's sake, pick a note and stick to it instead of warbling up and down the scale like a pregnant sparrow on nest!!

Ahem...sorry about that.
