I play guitar (how rare! lol) but there really is a shortage of prog lovers around here. I would love to be able to find others who enjoy the finer points of music (ie prog - of course) and form a group.

I'm actually looking to get a flute for Christmas. All this prog flute has gotten to my head, and every time I hear a flute I find it instantly intriguing and I love the sound. See if my dad is willing to buy one, though, as they can be quite expensive...

I play guitar, clarinet, sax, harmonica, and very poor mandolin, but I don't have a band right now. I might be able to start one soon, I'll have to see.

Lowly Bible Belt-trapped Chris Squire and Trevor Dunn-inspired bassist in a joke of an intermediate high school jazz band.

I'm not a musician but I'm trying to play bass for a few years. Before that I was playing guitar. I don't have a group and don't have time to make music with a group..

If you live in the Providence area, I'm looking for a band too.
I wouldn't call myself a prog musician...I'm not good enough at all. I play guitar and viola (lunaticviolist  ).

I'm hoping to get a bass money for my birthday/christmas (same day), and start a band early next year.

I play trombone in a jazz band as well as in a ska band, and
guitar/keyboards in a power metal band. None of them are prog bands,
but the music we write for the power metal band is really
prog-influenced, and even the ska band has the occasional riff in 7/4
for good measure.

I've done a search and did not find an answer to my questions.
Who here is a prog musician?
What do you play?
Who are your influences as a musician?
I am a keyboard player, and play some bass as well.
My primary influences are Jethro Tull (after This Was), Gabriel
and Genesis (w/ Gabriel and Hackett), and early Kansas.
There must be a ton of musicians here ...
