What member of PA do you think has the same taste as you musically? I'm pretty sure mine is Alucard. We share a lot of the same interests in regards to music and seem to have strangely similar tastes.

Oh it gets better than that. Marillion isn't the best representation of the genre IMO. I think Pendragon is a better base for the genre, though it obviously didn't start with them. ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want! |

Syzygy and we have quite similar tastes, almost identical even. A
little less: Trouserpress. And there was one short-lived member of the
forum, TomOzric, who also had
amazingly similar tastes to ours. Philippe shares our love for Krautrock, though it seems for different reasons. Oliverstoned is another member of the forum with a lot of similarities to us (tastewise, that is). -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

Syzygy and Joren get closest, I reckons.  Oh, and as Jean's just said, the Baldies and I have somwhat similar tastes. I'm not quite as enthusiastic about Peter Hammill, for one thing.Then again, I'm not sure anyone else is as enthusiastic about Hammill as they are! |

I like a lot of stuff so a lot of people here probably. Marillion fans definitely. A lot of different people got me into bands I currently like: the Baldies helped with my new VdGG love, Ivan influenced me into buying more Genesis I believe. And someone here gave me the idea to give ELP a try who I used to despise now I think they're pretty decent (even made my top ten most played on my comp) Anyone who likes progressive rock is okay by me. ------------- "The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of serious music is much worse." - Zappa |
