See if you can find another word for a 'long story' in 'salsa games'

It's also a name of a band on this website!

"Without prog, life would be a mistake."

geez...too much for me. 

Lorak, it might all be a bit easier than you think!

Why does Mad have to stand for anything other than Mad?

This is a typical cryptic crossword kinda clue...

Mad about Adam's beginning

Ask yourself: what is Adam's beginning? One letter is required.

After that the next key word is 'about' ... this tells you something else has to be about (around) Adam's beginning.

You are looking for a four-letter band name featured on the ProgArchives website.

Yell out if you are still stuck!

Now, let me subject you to more pain

Two-word band name...

Short Richard from Down Under has octopus arms



Adam's beginning is A
Multitudes of letters can be around A 
Mad is equivalet to angry, upset, etc. 
Of course, Adam's beginning could be birth, but that is 5 letters not one. 
geez...too much for me. 


Two heads are better than one, but if you want something done right, do it yourself.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained, but better safe than sorry.

T.Rox's clue seems totally ignored (I can't get it either!), as well as this one by me:

Orwell's 1984 has a certain word for the way the powers use language.
That word is my clue for a band.
(Easy for those who remember the novel well!)

And a new one: - "Should we have a car?" - "A van would be handy."
