The dumb progger thinks that the "9/8" in "Apocalypse in 9/8" refers to a location (latitude and longitude).

when asked if he likes Pink Floyd he gets a big smile on his face and starts air-singing 'We don't need no... education...'

thinks that Syd Barrett is the singer of Pendragon.

thinks that Roger Dean was that rebel without a cause who got killed on his Porsche.

^Everyone knows the Top Gear guys. Smile

Thinks Big Time Rush are influenced by Rush.

Thinks Slash used that riff first.

Thinks [insert any prog band name here] is underrated because they don't have a large following.*

Regularly listens to The Wall on shuffle.

... thinks Richard Hammond and James May must be prog musicians (apologies to non-British people who may not know who they are).

Thinks Mike Oldfield is a horror movie soundtrack composer

Starts to listen to any experimental album, stops after ten seconds and tries to fix his CD player

Thinks that any album ending 30-minute epic must be really a 15 minute song with a hidden track

9/10 genius's are Terrible spellers. Apparently, Albert Einstein couldn't spell for sh*t. Anyway, it's something I don't nit-pick about, but I guess if I were part of the errors and omissions team I'd be all over that sh*t, but in a nice way of course.

Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

Thinks that the latest movie "Rush" is a sequel to "Beyond the Lighted Stage"
Thinks Yes were a one hit wonder with "Owner of a Lonely Heart"
Thinks Procol Harum only released one decent song with "Whiter Shade of Pale"




Oh Scott. These are great. I knew you would kick ass at this thread.
