What Uuuup!?!?

   Hey there fellow prog fans!!  I wish I had looked around the forum a little more so I knew this place was around!  But yeah, I'm relatively new here and love the site.  I've been a member of a couple of forums before this (music and other) and am not missing them and their obvious music "elitism!"  Every member I've encountered here is very down-to-earth, and although arguments occur (which is inevitable), they are compelling and respectful!  So I'm glad to be apart of such a cool forum now!

And per request of the forum, here's a list of my (current) favorite bands and bands that have had a profound impact on my music tastes:

Opeth (my intro to prog!)
Porcupine Tree (and all other Steve Wilson projects)
Yes
Oceansize
The Pineapple Thief
Echolyn
The Flower Kings
Spock's Beard
Symphony X
Amorphis
Magic Pie
Cosmosquad
Fleet Foxes (not prog but AMAZING)
Frost*
Riverside
Jens Lekman
Katatonia
The Mars Volta

That's a pretty all-encompassing list of the genres I listen to but of course there are so many more that are in my archives!

	Welcome, Johnny! You can get lots of influences from lots of artists...like a TSUNAMI (tidal wave). Enjoy!
