I wonder how many people recognized it.
 
 
Scooter.. Dead
 
 
And no, people who actually listen to this song usually don't know who Supertramp is.

At the Tigers' game on Saturday night there was a homeless black guy wearing a Dream Theater Six Degrees Of Turbulence sweatshirt.  This left me really curious about the backstory behind that.

It's terrible how far Mike Portnoy has fallen, isn't it? Did he have a sign saying "will thrash for cash"?

I suspect that to probably be the case and that he wasn't a down on his luck progger.  Curious if the former owner of the sweatshirt had become disillusioned with the band after Mike left or maybe was a member of PA whose tastes had changed away from Dream Theater so that he discarded/donated the shirt.  Most likely he just outgrew it, or got married, became a Country music fan to adapt to his wife's taste and when he wasn't looking she donated it.  LOL

^ Classic rock station, I bet.

Turns out they DO sell prog in Wal-Mart (... well, other than PF):


$5/pup. And not $4.99. How about that?

It was Radio Capital, an Italian radio station that plays mainly Westcoast Rock, but sometimes it's not difficult to find some Prog songs like those in the evening

WHAT?!! MotherfCensored ! I bought the same album in the local B&N store for ~$18. I'm pretty sure that even if one put your copy and my nice packaging with the liner notes together, it still wouldn't cost that much.

A recent episode of the SyFy series "Alphas" ended with a montage backed by Yes' "Your Move".

I have this habbit of browsing through the CDs in our four Music Shops here in East London, South Africa, and when ever I see a Prog CD I put it at the front of the stack. Unfortunately I never find CDs which are not already in my collection, but at least I hope I can create some curiousity amongst other buyers for Marillion, Rush, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Mars Volta, Dream Theater, Yes, etc. (those are the artists I usually stumble across).

When I find an album that I want I usually hide it under a mountain of cds in order to keep it safe from other customers' hands Party
