When someone calls you a hipster and you're really offended because hipsters aren't underground enough for you.

 .....when you see somebody with a t shirt of ''The Wall'' and you said  '' i preferred  Atom Heart Mother '' and he  looks at you like ''what the hell are you talking about  ''
Nothing can last
there are no second chances.
Never give a day away.
Always live for today.

...when your wardrobe is made up exclusively of jeans and band t-shirts, including ones that no one realizes are band t-shirts because they've never heard of the band. "Animals as Leaders, are you some sort of anarchist or something?"

...when typing the word "wardrobe" immediately makes you think of Genesis.

.. when people in purple colours remind you of PA and all the music you need to get. There's been a big children's fashion wave at my work place - all the girls around 6 or so stomp around in purple clothes, and I keep thinking Krautrock and Klaus Schulze.

...You find the longest tracks possible
Music is about music. Not mass-produced sounds. Prog is the answer. The answer to everything musical. Prog uses instruments, ensembles and decent materials.
Prog is the answer.

I've done that! Also I like to headbang in 7/4 (or is it 7/8?)
bang bang bang pause bang bang bang pause
 
Seven IS a jolly good time. Big smile

Ahh! Time to show off! The difference between 7/4 and 7/8 is that the accent in 7/4 is on every second beat just like in 4/4, only with 7 beats. 7/8 the accent is on the third (one two THREE four five SIX seven and all over again. Actually looking at your comment you might know that, well now you know it more!
I believe I have it now. Thanks. Smile
