Hey there

I didn't see this threat until now.
but anyway i come from Iceland and i have been a prog fan for about 5 years ( the best thing that happened to me so far ). i like my prog colorful, atmospheric, dark, well orchestrated so it breaths naturally and on and on.
there is no real prog scene in iceland, we have some older prog bands but no one really cares about them, they are just dinosaur bands in the eyes of most of people.
i have done my best to inform people of this genre with mixed results though i don't necesseraly just pick out random people out on the streets and start talking about prog to them. i would be no better than a mormon then.
i know that alot of people are very angry at Iceland because of the economical crisis and all of that , maybe there's somebody in here who lost all of their savings because of us (well actually just a couple of greedy b*****ds) but i am not here to talk about that i just think people intend to forget that we the common people in Iceland are not responsible for this.

and for my closure im really excited to be a member of PA and looking forward how that will progress

Clappies for the bolded selections in specific, they're some wonderful sub-genres.
