Is that what those holes in the CD are for?

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Who needs prog when you have a girlfriend?

Me actually. LOL

My girlfriend likes Ayreon, so I'm going to get her to listen to some Riverside, PoS and White Willow's Storm Season.

I want to get some Epica too, as I think she'll like them.

My girlfriend listens mostly to punk and ska, but I've been wearing her down little by little.

She's become quite fond of Tool and Zappa and I've dragged her to a few concerts which she was not so fond of (Opeth and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum). She'll tolerate a lot of the older bands I listen to (camel, pink floyd, hawkwind) but not so much the residents... not yet... bwa ha ha!

My Mom's a big Kansas, Santana, and Dixie Dregs fan. My wife's not a prog fan but she makes up for it in many ways. Big%20smile

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Believe me, it only gets worse as you get older. Marry young. You don't want what's out there after you hit 30. All attractive, sane women have already been taken, at least in the U.S.

Of course, I'm a 38 single man, so I'm not sure what that says about me.

You'd better off not knowing Tongue

... I'm almost 47, and I waited until last year to be 'taken'. Does that make me unattractive and insane? Confused

BTW, we women tend to say the same about men....

My girlfriend is 37 (38 in December) and she's amazing, so don't write the older woman off!

I also know a 40+ year old woman who's, let me say, quite nice. Her son apparently knows me too. LOL

However, I only have my true and honest eyes set on Nicola, my wonderful and adorable girlfriend.
