Haha. Today I had a dream in which Limmy (Limmy's Show) got really angry in one of his sketches and started singing... Dirge by Welcome... with the Scottish accent and everything.

Never. My dreams usually involve obscure events from daily life repeating themselves in a distorted and surreal manner, involving people I haven't seen in years (or people I've never seen at all) and plot twists that could only happen in dreams.

Funny dream about David Cousins...He was encamped on a lawn that was raised up from street level, about waist-height, with a retaining wall below it.  He was homeless (gee, where did homeless come from?) and was busking to raise money to get back home.  He was wearing weathered boots and had scrapbooks/photo albums strewn all around him.  Rick Wakeman was there as well and he and I were looking through the albums...they had that old library musty scent to them. 


Thanks for sharing!  For some odd reason, I've been humming the Strawbs song "Round and Round" all morning!  I didn't dream about Cousins, but why I suddenly fixated on this song escapes me! 

Prog-related dream - last night, I dreamt I was selected to go on a rocket trip to the Moon, on an Elon Musk rocket.  My only dilemma was trying to figure out which guitar I wanted to take!!  The Les Paul was too heavy, I settled on my Guild S-100. 


  Nice collection!  That would be a hard decision, but the Les Paul would weigh less on the moon, lol!  But so would you, so perhaps it would still feel equivalent (I'll leave that to scientists amongst us to let us know....you might know, judging from your post elsewhere).  It does seem like we are lately, especially, just going round in circles.  The thing most about my dream was the scent factor, some people never dream with scent, but I've had several that were particularly memorable.  And being excited to just catch DC busking, it was a good listen.  :)

Not a dream, but read somewhere that Gabriel supposedly hallucinated the part in Supper's Ready about "Six saintly shrouded men move across the lawn slowly. The seventh walks in front with a cross held high in hand." I've had dreams of a similar nature where mysterious figures lurk somewhere out on the periphery.

Last night I had a nice dream about Chick Corea in concert, and Stanley Clarke showed up!  Tall, lanky, handsome cat!  Absolutely no reason to have this dream, I haven't listened to either in months. 

Here, have some!

I enjoyed this light hearted thread and got a kick out of many of the responses. Never having dreams related to music myself, I'm surprised that they were even possible. I feel a bit sad at never having the experience.

I've long had prog dreams involving many scenarios.  

I'm a correspondent with Mr. Robert Fripp & his sister Patricia, which has led to a number of rather wild dreams, often involving playing onstage with Bob.  (I'm the former bassist to one of his first Guitar Craft students, Alonzo Jones, in his amazing band "CAVU").  

I also know John Goodsall of Brand X, even bought him a laptop once when his computer fried out.  Another friend is Ray Bennett and Colin Carter of the band "Flash."  

The first prog-related dream I can remember was when I was a lad in high school, perhaps 1971.  I dreamt about Jimmy Page playing onstage with a natural finished Telecaster.  As he was most often shown with a sunburst Les Paul, I thought it was an odd dream....eventually, I learned that the early Led Zep material in fact was recorded with a Telecaster.

It is natural. I remember when I first saw a bottle of Jagermeister I thought my life would be not enough to enjoy the taste of all the existing bitters. Nowadays, don't get me wrong, I'm not an alcoholic - but I drank enough bitters including Jagermeister to simply hate them and their usual taste. I prefer Triple Sec these days. Perhaps, this love will perish one day, as well. 

The number of possible topics for such a forum is certainly limited.

I am probably too pragmatic if not cynical in my 37 years, too non-sentimental these days. 

I still have a semi-dream of creating the all-in-one huge Gentle Giant box: CDs, videos, books, playing cards, computer games, mobile apps, what else. Sure, stuff like mobile apps has to be made before its inclusion in the boxset...

I have had a nightmare where I was asked to play keyboards on stage with IQ as a last minute replacement...

And also I once dreamt that I was playing rugby union for Ireland in the Six Nations championship, and scored a try - and with me in the back row was Mike Holmes of IQ! We are 2 very unlikely rugby players...and why Ireland? I'm English, have lived in Scotland and now Wales, and have visited France and Italy, but never set foot in Ireland 😂

A very ambitious crossover, I must say.

Not a prog dream, but a musical dream nonetheless: earlier this year, I dreamt I was at a Deep Purple Mark II concert.

Also, this I had a dream/nightmare where I was supposed to play keyboards on stage with a couple of friends, but I didn't know the setlist Stern Smile. This is a variation on my usual nightmare of having to take a final exam for a college course I didn't attend.
