Exactly this.
Interesting how many of the people here are firstborn. It appears to me that most firstborns are often more quiet and laid-back, as most proggers seem to be. |
I wasn't sure...but thus far there have indeed been a lot of firstborns. I know I am more laid back than my younger brother, and while I like metal and he does like prog he seems to be more into straight up death metal and thrash metal and extreme genres. Maybe there is something behind this. Great poll by the way! Pretty cool and refreshing from all those cartoon ones

Also my four siblings (see page 1) like prog, from my oldest brother (4 years older than me) to my youngest (17 years younger than me). First I convinced my big brother (which was quite easy), then, when my sister became 12, she decided she was too old for ABBA and startet listening to VdGG instead. My two youngest brothers never had a chance; we fed them with prog from they were kids. OK, off topic, but I think it’s nice.

I have two half-sisters who I don't live with and hardly ever see. And for the vast majority of my life they didn't exist, so I feel like an only-child. But I voted two sisters.

I have one older brother, one younger sister and two younger half brothers. We are all friends, but don’t see each other very often since two of us live in Norway, one in Belgium, one in Germany and one in Greece (guess who).

I'm the youngest, I have 2 older sisters, one of whom got me into prog by bringing home a copy of Nursery Cryme once.

Oh, I'm the younger  . Two brothers. Though we have similar interests and hobbies, we are not so alike. With one of them are very close and we did everything together. The older is kind of messy but we hang out well...

You seem to be right. I'm the first and I have 2 sisters, one is 3 years younger and the other 6 years younger than me. How did you guess that I wonder ?

Neat poll. I have an older brother and a younger sister (and then there were three?  ). Haven't been in touch with the brother due to his bad behavior a few years ago. My sister and I get along well. Neither of us get along with the brother these days. My Mom came from a big family, six make that seven kids.  My Dad only had one sister.

I have a sister who's 11 years older, and a brother who's 10 years older than me. I'm the little baby in my family  . But I get along well with them now (my sister was tougher to get along with for some years), and have plenty in common with both, despite the fact that they were out of the house by the time I was 8 or 9.

Two younger sisters (one is 3 years younger, the other is 16 years younger), and one older brother (one year older), whom I am good friends with. I am second-born.
