 hi......new member here from ENGLAND. just a few details about myself...............i am one of the geriatric proggers who at the tender age of 15 i was introduced to REAL music back in the early seventies. Then i listened to bands such YES, GENESIS, HAWKWIND, ELP etc. now a terrible confession !!!! i went off the rails in my 20's and went to disco's to meet the opposite sex & it gets worse!!! i was now buying & listening to dance music ( although it was not as bad then as it is now. DEATH TO RAP, BURN IN MUSIC HELL  )....AHEM..
sorry i went into one then. But back to the story....fast forward
to now. i am now married with 2 grown up offspring
& have re-discovered the first love of my life, what a relief
to find it still alive & well !!!!adding to the old favourites, i now discover/ listen to all the bands that i missed whilst wandering the musical wilderness, such as PORCUPINE TREE, ARENA et al. thanks PROGARCHIVES. THE PROGdigal son has RETURNED !!! ................. get the BBQ going. ------------- calling at all stations from ARENA to YES |

^^^ a very warm welcome to the forum proggy...like me, you'll probably find much to discover on here, which will burn a hole in your wallet! ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |
