Something else:

just trying to become a pro musician despite the "alternative" (being a meteorologist).

This is a very special little community, and I genuinely love coming on here. Although I do not review as much now as I did, for reasons people who know me are aware of, this will change because I love reviewing, and also reading reviews of people whose views I respect.

I have made very real friends here, which I do still, perhaps because of my age, find somewhat strange because, of course, I have never met any of you. The Internet age has had some bad press, sometimes justified, but it does have a fantastic ability to join people together for common benefit, and PA is, by far, my personal benefit as far as this goes.

Well, PA in general for me too. The forum though for talking. I thought the OP meant just the forum. But as for the site as a whole, yes, the database comes first. It's prog's Discovery Channel.

I was constantly exchanging e-mails with M@X about additions and only just lurking about the forum... Took me almost six to seven months before I really started posting in the forum itself (I'd had some bad forum experiences before that)

I joined many many years ago to discuss prog rock with like minded people, as I didn't know any prog fans in 'real life'

I made a few friends and have enjoyed the discussions. I also joined to read the reviews and browse the archives.

These days, I think I've said everything I'm going to say. Voted on which Genesis album I like the most a thousand times, so my motivation for coming on here to see what's being discussed.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Looking for threads with original premises. And hanging out. I'm just out and about. Coming and going as I please.

It used to be creating threads and polls until zappaholic remarked that I've made too many in a single day. 'Twas three years ago.
