I can hold my own in discussions about Pink Floyd, Genesis, King Crimson, Yes, and the other great prog bands. I haven't really ventured out of UK prog, though, so I need some schooling in other forms of prog.

Arent we all "The King"???

But, in honesty, compared to the people on this site, i dont know so much. However, compared to the people that i know I am far more knowledgable. I came to this site to learn more about prog music and what's the best out there, and the site has helped enormously.  I hope its working that way.

I'd say I'm probably somewhat below most people on here, but I've only been into prog for a couple years, whereas some of you have dedicated your entire lives to it.  I think that for a 16 year old I know a pretty good amount...

I'm below most people here in knowledg (having enjoyed prog for a little under a year), but I'm much farther ahead than most of the people I know (although I do know almost everything about Pink Floyd).

frenchie:

Thanks for the moral support.  Actually, I am not certain where I fall in this poll.  Probably close to the "king" category from prog's inception (1966/1967) to mid-70's.  Possibly in the "impressive" category for neo-prog (Marillion et al) and non-english-speaking prog (from Anglagard to Deus ex Machina).  But only in the "average" category for neo-neo-prog (Dream Theater, Spock's Beard, et al) - though I'm quickly catching up with that stuff.

Still, there are areas in which I am woefully inadequate.  I'm new to neo- and neo-neo-prog groups like IQ, Pendragon, Arena et al, though I'm learning.  I'm very new to prog metal (Opeth, Pain of Salvation et al), and have much to learn.  I also have little knowledge of Canterbury, krautrock, and groups like Can, Tangerine Dream, Soft Machine et al - though, again, I'm learning.

So I guess I am something of a know-it-all when it comes to the history of what might be called "seminal" prog - the original creators, and the first group of spin-offs (e.g., Nektar) - but only a little better, in average, with regard to other areas.

And do I need to say that this site has helped me grow in my own knowledge, to a degree I would not have thought possible?  And that this is a result of both the groups and albums I am led to, and the knowledge imparted by all of you in forum threads?

Thanks for being such an informed, smart, articulate bunch of maniacs...

Peace.
