Other music includes everything else that I can think of listening to. Seriously. That sounds intriguing.

And no, June, Animal Collective are not catchy.  They're annoying. I nearly always listen to music that is somehow tied to prog. Occasionally I dabble into jazz, classic rock, or what not.

Well a lot of Henry Cow is minimalistic anti-rock.

Plus I love Elton Dean.  Best jazz ever.

I'm a bass player in a band that seems to be going well, I'm on a gap year where I'm actually not doing anything because I can't find a job and thus no new prog. My friends got me into all kinds of music. And I'm not posting 60 times a day anymore. How things going for you? Lots of things too. I'm a sax/flute player and singer in a band. I don't listen to that much prog anymore and I don't post that much anymore either. Life's good. It's a rare sight to see someone with Wu Tang as his top artist on PA. Ah cool, do you have any of your music on the internet? It would be cool to hear. Ya about the Wu Tang stuff you can blame my guitarist. We may play rock but thats not all we listen to. He's given me so much rap and electronic music. Good stuff.

Yeah, we do have a myspace :

www.myspace.com/asemantiquepogostick

It's mostly just recorded jams with awful recording gear but there are some good parts. "La Nostalgie", "Les Irréductibles", "Panthère Saxy" and "Je suis le sosie de Damo Suzuki" are all not bad or even good. I don't know which songs are up on myspace right now cause my guitarist changes 'em daily. The Damo Suzuki one is a tribute to Can if you're interested.

I don't anyone about Wu Tang. Hehe. They're probably my favorite rap group ever. I used to listen to them a lot and still do sometimes.

Mmmm bigger and complete boxset.

Heh, Bern, you missed a week where half of my top ten artists were Wu-Tang affiliated.

That was before I returned, though (and I don't have the sig, blah blah blah).

Welcome back, Ben.

I promised myself I'd never change my username, despite the fact that it's not the most creative one ever. I doubt I will change it. Can't be arsed to do it anways.

I'd be extremely willing for a position; I'm just not outward about it. It's their job to pick me for it. From the ones they have available, I'm by far most willing to commit my services to the Electronic Prog team. Otherwise, Site Monitoring or general team would be next.

Well no, it isn't just 'their job' to pick you.
Part of getting promoted is you going for it, because if you just sit back and think 'I hoped I get picked' it doesn't happen. Part of it is that they pick you, the rest is up to you to show the initiative.
As always, it's know you know, what you do and what you put in that makes you the collab.
