So you thought it was a fake genre? LOL

Kind of reminds me of something that happened about 12 years ago. I was showing my cousin a list of prog albums. Her then boyfriend(now husband)saw it and said "progressive rock?" "Is there such a thing?" My cousin said to him in response "I think so." Uh, no of course not. Progressive rock is just something I made up. I hired 170 people to make up names of albums by bands that don't really exist just so I could mess with you guys. LMAO!!! Big smileClapTongue

My first Prog Exposure happened at the end of the 80s (Yes, Pink Floyd, Dream Theater), although I only really started seriously getting into Prog in 2000. This had to do with growing up in Namibia and South Africa where one is not really exposed too much to prog. End of 1999 I moved to Germany and started blowing my meager salary on tons of CDs. Had to do a lot of catching up.

I'll be 43 in two months so for me it's the 1980's. Yes I do feel old but when I go to prog festivals most of the fans are either around my age or older so it's not that bad.
