- You're late for work because you wouldn't get out of the car until Supper's Ready was over

- Your vinyl is the last thing you sell before you starve to death

- You can't discuss music with anyone at work because they haven't heard of a single band you're talking about

(the ones you have 10 - 20 albums each by)

- You actually care about album art

- you own a turntable (or 3)

any more?

Hi there Walton

I hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty of moving your post to this already existing thread Smile

No sense in having two of these threads, and the old one is just too good to be closed imo.

For an easier and much more productive search you should go to the frontpage instead (the one with all the reviews Tongue

). Just above the "top 50 artists inside the last 24 hours" you'll see a search bar. On the right it says 'discography' but change that to 'forum' and see the world of PA open up before your eyes.

It's the google search bar situated at the top of the page. Only you have to change the box that says discography to forum, which you do by clicking the small arrow on the right. Then type in your search and you should be right as rain Smile

I just took a look and realized that picking 'advanced search options' and changing some parameters would have gotten me better results :)

I did use the search from the forum, it just didn't like my words because of the defaults ..

should be more successful now - thanks for the help :)

When for asking your wife to bring you a beer you have installed a bell above your coach and pull its rope with your teeth.

When every time you take the knife at table, you think of a Hammond L-100 rather than of the steak in your plate.

When you went to see the Cirque Du Solei show 'Quidam' expecting that the music would be from the Polish Neo-Prog band.

Done that too. Tongue

Both versions on the remastered Land of Grey and Pink. It was like... coffee in thee a.m.

Back a while ago a boss wondered wtf I was doing with my time (working... obviously) but I was happy (not a good sign at work). He interrogated me, saw I was listening to Caravan advised me to check out Better By Far and told me to carry on as I was doing.

When you are willing to pay Alfred Music Publishing (WB Music Corp) $55 to use a line from "Gates of Delirium" as an epigraph to your book on the First World War.
