Being dutch for 12 years was great fun. I still get homesick every spring when I know the tulips are blooming.

I agree with the OP. This is an excellent forum and certainly the most friendly forum I've been on. Thanks to all those who run it, collaborate and all the forumers who contribute to and generate the discussions.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

I Heartily agree with all these positive sentiments.. and yes i know that some people instinctively want to vomit or spout obsenities when they are confronted with such 'positivity'.. fine, whatever.. but its really refreshing to just hear when any individual is learning and getting inspiration and enjoyment from the forum. Long may it continue!

Another thing about the Dutch I love as well as all the great prog bands, are the world-renowned orchestral conductors, like Willem Mengelberg, Eduard van Beinum, Paul van Kempen, etc.

Someone got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning ... This is a sweet, positive thread - something increasingly rare on the Internet - and I don't see the point in ruining it with rants that have nothing to do with it.

I thought maybe someone was having fun with Svetonio's earlier comment:
"Some people wanted to turn this forum into the Inquisition-like council, but it remained only their wet dream!"

I would like to say thank you to all who wished me well when I mentioned I was unemployed. Went back to work on October 1st. I would also like to thank Johannes of Perfect Beings for letting me try their new album in advance when I wasn't able to afford to afford to buy any new music (things are still tight, but hey). And thanks as well for sending me an autographed copy. Especially cool since I don't know when they might make it to the Atlanta area and I'm not likely to make it to their area anytime soon. I'd also like to thank Pandora Snail for giving me the same opportunity after I posted the Perfect Beings review. Thanks to presdoug for being a good friend and all the other good friends I have made here over the years. I am coming up on 10 years a member next year, wow. And of course finally thanks to Ronald and Maxime for founding the site and all of those who support the site. My collection would be a lot thinner without all the exposure to artists I would not have discovered on my own.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
