I was a lonely 15 year old once, then I went outside and ... well, went to university and became a poor 19 year old prog/beer addict.

# Whatever: When the 'Progressive Rock' genre section on your iPod is bigger than the general 'Rock' section. Or if you have all the subgenres as separate sections... and Zehul has more bands in it than... I dunno, Blues. :P
