I can only sing those in Kobaļan/whatever Yoshida calls the language used in Koenjihyakkei. 

I try to keep up with Koenjihyakkei, but I would have to have the booklet in front of me.
The great thing about air vocals is that nobody is subjected to my "singing".

Yeah, they can be a bit quick.  I can't air-vocal or real vocal along with a lot of their stuff, but some of my favorite tracks I've gotten pretty decent at.

Yeah, Grembo Zavia is one of my specialties as well...same with parts of Lussesoggi Zomn.  Is it sad I know how to spell some of their track names correctly without thinking about them?  LOL

I never though I'd be able to remember Koenjihyakkei.

Same here.  Speaking of Koenjihyakkei, they're one of the main bands I like to air drum to.

Indeed.  I really vary what I do while listening to prog depending on the band, it seems.  Koenjihyakkei? air vocals/drums...Alamaailman Vasarat? air cello.  etc.

I myself sit on the couch to have a good listen to prog. Well, often I read something while listening.

When the music is very good, I usually stand up, move around and play some air guitar, keyboards or drums Embarrassed

Listing on the couch on the spot where I sit perfectly centered between my two speakers. Some music evokes me to get serious facial expressions (like VdGG when raging).

Apart from all the instruments mentioned, I also play a lot of air vibraphone. Whenever I can!

In headphones, loud, with appropriately colorful and moody lighting, and nicely baked. Energetic parts get the full air keys/guitar/bass/drums treatment, otherwise sitting back with eyes closed and letting it take me away...

Loud.  Very loud.

Lots of headbanging, air guitaring/bassing, air drums, and foot stomping.
But that's just metal.  I've tried the air violin but it's very difficult.

I usually do a kind of dance movement while doing the dishes. With "Sprinkling Of Clouds" by GONG, I count in a primitive way. Technically it is incorrect but, it works for me and it's much easier to dance to or groove to when counted like this:......(wait until the drums come in)........

1-2-3-4-5......1-2-3-4-5......1-2-3-4-5........1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9...
1-2-3-4-5......1-2-3-4-5.......1-2-3-4-5........1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9..

Outdoors, in nature, breathing in the fresh air, listening to prog on my iPod whilst walking my dog -  normally between 7.00 PM and 8.15 PM, come rain of shine.  After a hard and sometimes stressful day at work, this is my favourite part of the day....I wouldn't tell the wife that, though!

I get an indescribable pleasure of listening to this music. Incredible feeling captures changing times of listening to old records, or unknown to me. What could be nicer than to relive the exciting moments from PINK FLOYD to plunge into psychedelic equilibrium with KING CRIMSON around and once again around the world shoot with the caravan. why do I enjoy this music is because it still has something that really used to be associated with this word and not closed in the commercial framework for the sound track. she was still alive despite the fact that popular. it every time a new despite the fact that he loves to imitate others. I can not exactly say what most of all I love this music as a man can not speak for what most of all he loves his woman (If I suddenly wrote wrong please forgive me because I do not speak English and translate everything through Google)

More people should use this translator - it produces a wonderfully poetic effect.  It's a damned sight more creative and interesting than 99% of all prog metal lyrics anyway!

If it's a song I know, I sing, sing, sing.  Badly, but I still sing.

I'm also an air keyboard virtuoso.  My main air influences are Air-ek Sherinian, Air-ik Norlander, and ...uhh......Jem Godfrey.Thumbs Up
