This is rock and roll, to me.

Let's see . . . January 20 . . . something good was happening today, I'm sure of it . . . Oh, and my son has early acceptance into his college of choice . . . (well, his current choice. It changes every couple of weeks . . .)

Donald Trump is no longer the President of the United States of America.

Bruce and Clarence! Always liked these outtakes from the Born to Run photo session

Janis Joplin with her handprinted Porsche 356!

Seems like the usual Rent-a supergroup bunch of c***s....

I remember the feeling very well. After hearing 2112 in its entirety, I was literally in a daze. I just had to play it over and over again. It was like receiving a revelation directly from the gods, only the gods were Geddy, Alex and Neil. For about the next 5 years or more, I literally saw them as super-mystical prophets, who knew the secrets of the Universe! :laughing guy:

I think I might be responsible for that ridiculous name for the sub genre. Crossover Prog. I was never comfortable with Prog Pop as an alternative and really we should have used “Art Rock” but the issue was that, of course, that’s another name for Progressive Rock and was quite widely used though less so now. Wait you helped make Progarchives?? Tony's profile is here, His profile photo has the half-horse running, which I forgot about that's hilarious.

Wait you helped make Progarchives?? I joined in 2004 and took over the admin side in 2006, I think, with a couple of others after the site hit a crisis. Some stuff needed doing and they were humming and aahing instead of getting on with it. I pushed a lot of things through and dealt with some bad actors on the forum. It was bloody hard work and I guess I was de facto leader of the Admin team for a few years. We created teams to deal with additions to the different genres but that meant redefining and in some cases renaming some. Towards the end of my tenure I thought Maxime Roy the site owner was more concerned with monetising the site than maintaining it and it became a mess of advertising. Don’t tell the Feds but I was responsible for many of the mp3 tracks uploaded there. I thought it was Max’s biggest weapon for bringing Prog back to the masses. We had a few cease and desist notices and one time John Petrucci’s wife contacted us to remove all the band’s MP3’s and furthermore all references to her husband and the band on the Archive. :moon:

No, I don't know that bit. Do the bit about 'Something for Nothing.' :geddy: Last night I had 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again' for six hours. And four hours to bury a cat? Oh, you must be tired. :hug2: I've fallen off my chair, Robert. This belongs to Mrs. Edgeworth of Pinner. She's standing over there. :whipgirl: Oh, I've worked in worse places, philosophically speaking. My friend he say 'Milan is better than Napoli.' :ebert: I'm French!! Why do you think I have this outrageous accent you silly king? You mean you don't make any honey at all? Well, why do you come here trying to flog this stuff, then? :kisshug: Remember, if you do want anything... jewellery, Ascot water heaters...
