After lurking around the forums for sometime now and after first visiting the site about a year or so ago, I finally decided to join in. This site has been fantastic in helping my discover new music and rediscover the stuff that I had long ago stopped listening to. So, hello and thanks.

Hi and welcome ! Yes, the art of getting new music into the household without attracting the attention of the unsympathetic spouse/parent etc. is something one could write volumes about !------------- "In war there is no time to teach or learn Zen.

Hi Rushaholic... I remember being heartily fed up of the 'Radio 1' crap coming out of the school buses speakers when I was about 16, and one day found a half amenable driver who put a cassette of Rush 2112 for the other 40 school kids to listen to on the way home... the journey was about 45 mins, just long enough for the entire album! Despite protestations, I held them all off the cassette player and told them to sit down and listen to something which was actually worth listening to for a change. Naturally, although I got sneared at mercilessly for weeks after, I had my moment of glory and by God it was worth it! Enjoy this site... and join in; its great fun!
