OK I've got this new idea for a game. It's silly but it might be fun. First, you have to write an equation with words instead of numbers. Then, the nest one pick the resulting word and make an equation with it. Here is an example because I can hardly explain it. eg: 1) Gentle Giant + Rythm = Complex 2) Complex + Drums = Bruford I hope my example is clear enough  I don't know if it's a good game idea, if you understand the rules and if it'll work out, but let's give it a go. Here it is : Genesis - (Steve Hackett + Peter Gabriel) = Pop  -------------
