I know, it is barely a creative title, but what is better to say for introducing yourself?

I have often visited the site and the forum, and now finally decided to join.
It has been about two years or so that I first got in touch with some kind of "progressive music", which in my case was Dream Theater. The music fascinated me, as I liked metal and the longer songs of it. Progressive Metal is up to now my favorite genre. Though, I lately became very interested in the older prog music. When I was looking in my dad's CD-collection, the cover of "Dark Side Of The Moon" caught my interest. The music was different to what I used to listen to. In my dad's collection also were some CDs of Genesis and Jethro Tull, Alan Parsons Project and so on. I really liked the music, and somehow I found this site here.
 
For I already listened to some Symphonic Prog, Psychedelic, Prog Metal and Electronic, the music of Post Rock and Zeuhl are next for me to explore. I hope the side and their members will help me Smile
 
And, please excuse the simple language I use. I am a student from Germany with English in the fifth year, however it is not my best subject.Wink

keine Angst, es gibt hier auch Leute, die Deutsch sprechen Smile, wie zum Beispiel meine Frau BaldFriede und mich (ich bin auch eine Frau; wir sind ein lesbisches Paar). ich bin gebürtige Amerikanerin, lebe aber seit 15 Jahren in Deutschland und spreche beide Sprachen gleich gut, und meine Frau auch, obwohl sie Deutsche ist (sie hat als Kind längere Zeit in England gelebt). wenn du also irgendein Problem mit der englischen Sprache hast, dann kannst du dich an einen von uns beiden wenden.
