^ That's some good news! I think, their last album was pretty terrible, but Emersons last solo album was pretty good so... I don't know we'll see!

When a group of co-workers in your smoking area asks you what type of music your into, 17 minutes later your still babbling about how the eighties was the demise of Genesis, and you suddenly realize the room is empty.

When you're in someone else's car and they're blasting the local hip-hop station and in your mind you start trying to string together the different songs into one concept

You spend money on albums/songs/groups on Itunes that you have not heard yet. I have done this several times...haven't been disappointed yet, though, so I guess I'll keep on doing it!

At least it doesn't hurt the next morning, except maybe in the wallet!

You know you're a Prog Addict when you arrange "Carpet Crawlers" for your High School Band to play.
Me? I'm just a lawn-mower. You can tell me by the way I walk.

When you get excited when you notice that two songs of your poppier friends seems to merge, but then they tell you it's a remix from one Dj and you feel disappointed...

does getting your 3 YO brother to sing pull me under count??? he also love the new Dream Theater album, (BCSL) and asks you to put the "evil music" on.

You know you're a Prog Addict when you almost have a heart attack when you see the King Crimson vinyls at your local Vintage Stock store.
