I would imagine I'd be pretty much how I am now, but that portrait in the attic is going to be looking really bad.

I haven't even lived 20 years, do I already need to think what 20 years from now will make me look like?

With any luck, dead. Not that that's a fairly original response, t'would seem. Progsters must be a dour lot...

God I thought this was a prog-rock forum, not an Emo meeting place! 
Face it in 20 years time, some of you may just have reached puberty! 
CHEER UP YOU MISERABLE GITS!

Hah! One of my favorite scenarios - in about 20 years time (if you take assorted chavs etc out of the equation) there will be old peoples' homes full of elderly hippies/proggers, playing their ancient CD collections at ear splitting volume.
Well meaning but talentless youngsters will pop in every week to play bad acoustic versions of songs we know & love, like 'Suppers Ready', 'The Revealing Science Of God' and 'Tarkus'...
Young nurses will make sure we're taking our drugs on a regular basis... 
The place will smell of a combination of boiled cabbage, wee and patchouli oil (something like a present day Rolling Stones gig).
...and Genesis will still be denying rumours of a Gabriel reunion...

20 years ago I imagined that I would now be working in a bank in Stoke. Now I live in Greece and have a job I like. Sometimes life turns out better than you expect. The secret is to have low expectations.

Or even better: have no expectations whatsoever!
Well I'll be 47 in 20 years time and I hope I have all my hair and faculties still. Nicky will be 58 and will still look younger - and be fitter - than me.
Such is life.

I hate all you people saying what you'll be in 20 years time... when most of you will still be younger than I am now

I am 47, and I have all my hair and faculties still - and I'm not planning to part with either of them any time soon  !

The real interesting question for me is where the heck am I going to put all of my music collection in 20 years?

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

God i hope you still have hair too. Letting you go bald would be the cruelest cosmic joke ever, your hair is the best!
By the way, i didn't know you were into Chemistry..have you always been or has it come to you recently?
|
Chemistry has always been a love of mine...pretty much equal with music which is basically at the top of the list.

I've probably lost some of my hair in 20 years time. But i'll never shave my head completely bald!
In 20 years i think i'm working with art or something, i'll have a HUGE CD collection, a LARGE vinyl collection, and look almost like i do now, but 20 years older.
