I joined this site in 2005. I was active for quite a while and only recently came back. I have to say that this time round I am enjoying my experience even more that I did the first time.
I'm not going to try and nail down what it is exactly that I enjoy - I could say that the feeling of community is what really gets me - that is a big part of it. What is it about PA that keeps you coming back ? ***Forgive me if this has been asked before*** **It might even be in the wrong section ![]() Edited by horza - March 11 2013 at 15:08 |

How did I know that when I saw that The Doctor had posted the response would have to do with the ladies of PA?

Creations of my mind. Although, there are a couple hotties here (who shall remain nameless) ![]() But my real reason for coming back again and again is that I have fun here. And after all is said and done, that's what's important to me.

CTTE is the better album of the two BUT Supper's Ready is the best track from both - does that make sense? It does to me ![]() |

I like the member's conversing between each other. That's much more educational/in depth than doing research. People can get very deep on this website. There is also style to their conversations and that's a plus. When members disagree during on subject matter such as a specific band or style of prog , I usually leave progarchives, do a search on their points, return to progarchives, and compare/observe analogies. You can learn from actual members who have a brain like a encyclopedia and as a result obtain vast knowledge about prog.

I like the sense of being understood in my musical tastes. I just don't have these conversations outside this forum. Offline, if I mention Marillion or Transatlantic or Glass Hammer (to name but a few), people go, "Who?" Here, it's, "Yeah, they're great, have you heard their last album?" Priceless.

Yup. Had that at work this week. "So which concert did you go to on Monday?" "Steven Wilson." "Who?" ![]() |

Being a part of the RPI team and helping people discover Italian prog has been the coolest thing for me personally. And in general the site has helped me to hear far more music than I would have without it.

I appreciate the fact that pretty much everyone here, regardless of political beliefs, age, or demographic, seems to feel and act like an individual with a skeptical eye towards mainstream thought. On most other boards I've been on, there's a tendency for conformity and not questioning things. In my experience here, everyone seems to have a sound mind of their own, as well as a mutual respect for each others' individuality. I think that's what I like the best, and it's probably a trait of progressive rock types in general, and probably why I was attracted to the music in the first place.

I mainly come for the ratings and reviews for when I'm looking for purchases.
The banter is fairly entertaining though I could use some more Avant-heads. |

Anymore, when people ask me what kind of music I listen to, I respond with "I like weird music." |
