Didn't want to go with the usual "hey guys".
I do speak French though...
All right, so I'm barely getting into prog, and someone recommended this site, I got quite interested, and I figured that joining the forum was the best way to learn more and more, and more... and more.
I have a slight addiction with discovering great music.
So, some time ago, I started loving Uriah Heep, and for some reason, Ken Hensley solved my hatred of keys and synths, with the help of Rick Wakeman, so I'm at last ready to enter the wonderful world of Prog. I've been particularly obsessing over italian prog, like Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso, Osanna, Il Revescio Della Medaglia... but if you'll excuse, time to go watch Heroes.
Hi and thanks for having me!
edit: damn! no Heroes tonight!
 Back to prog  |

Salut camarade!  Bienvenue sur Progarchives. On a toujours besoin d'un peu plus de Québécois ici. Surtout des Québécois avec des bons goûts. J'adore les groupes italiens que t'as nommé. Surtout Osanna. As-tu été voir Banco au FMPM en septembre? -Olivier -------------  
RIP in bossa nova heaven. |

| Hello and welcome to our fair forums! Good to see another Canadian, even if I'm not of the French variety. |

Nope, I wouldn't even have known they were coming.
Hence the need to join a prog forum.
I've mostly been into classic rock for most of the recent years, so I have to catch up fast if I want to be able to hear about the good shows coming our ways.
Did you go? And if so, any good?
Thanks for the greetings, everyone else!

Bonjour à toi! As one of the very few women here (and much older than you are too ), I am very glad to welcome you here. Hopefully you'll stay for a long, long time.... We need other women with good taste in music here! Ah, btw, I am Italian (from Rome), though about to move to the USA because of love  . My husband-to-be is a HUGE fan of Italian prog (much more than me, I have to say), and you'll surely come across him soon . No clues... You can't miss him! |

Yeah. As usual, the FMPM rocked. Banco were especially awesome. You've just got to go this year.  -------------

Salut June,
Bienvenue à toi!!
Bern, je suis plutôt d'accord, mais il y a un max de Quebecois cachés dans les coulisses ( mailto:M@x - M@x , Ron, Lise etc....) et un paquet d'autre qui ne viennent plus (Greenback par ex) et un peu moi par affinités (je fus Franco-Ontarien pendant quasi 20 ans)
On a aussi qqes Français caché dans les coulisses (philippe, Olivier et Lucas) et parmis les Belges, les deux premiers chroniqueurs/reviewers du site (en quantité et qualité >> faut savoir se lancer des fleurs aussi) sont ZowieZiggy et moi, tous deux francophones.
Anyway, Welcome ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

I did one year at Concordia before transfering to McGill and I think it was German 201 that I took. It was in two parts. Fall & Winter. ------------- |
