Prog Trading Cards

There has to be a way to get around this, but I can't think of one right now.

Last week I interviewed Karmakanic/The Flower Kings Jonas Reingold, Omer Ephrat from Ephrat and today was our featured artist, Edensong, James Schoen whom I chatted with over skype. I've interviewed members of The Tangent, Ayreon, half of Spock's Beard, Ex-Scorpions guitarist Ulli Jon Roth, Helloween, Gamma Ray (the last two of those were in person, and video), Beardfish, The Flower Kings (Roine Stolt and I chatted or over an hour), Riverside, and Amaseffer. (ps - the last one was done today) That sounds pretty neat, particularly talking to Stolt. have you read that one, Alex? It was a 2 parter, I couldn't do it all at once . He ran me out of tape! I had to ask him to hold on while I found more! . Good guy though, gave great answers.

Sounds like a common problem Stolt has in the studio, too.

I have read it, but it was not with intense detail that I read it. I still need to actually go through and not skim it, since I've been meaning to intently read it for a while now.

That does sound hilarious.

here's today's

The rest won't count since they were posted around Thursday, the 6th.

And you're damn spiffy they take a while to prepare! Research takes forever, not to mention that the transcription of a 30-minute long interview (on average) takes about 3 hours to do, and that's a lot longer if they have a thick accent. I could do soooo many reviews during that that. but interviews are more fun

I'll allow it.  Interviews require preparation and are a valuable addition to this site.

So I'll dish out one card for each post-NOVEMBER 8th interview you post a link to here.

I'll give two cards for a legit interview. Wait a minute, By-Tor...what's the catch? He's the interview coordinator, so that's unfair to the rest of us. But how many interviews can he do really in a given amount of time? Did 3 last week, and one was posted today . If you could see the ones I have on the go i also have about 4 upcoming before December if all goes well. It is legitimate work...who'd you interview by the way? It might just be one card per interview.  You unique position does give you an advantage. Remember, I'm only counting anything done after 11/8, otherwise, I'd be swamped with previous reviews. Am I the only one who read that as 11/8 being a time signature?

Yep.

Legitimate? you questioning me?
