I'm 31 and have been into prog since I first heard 'Wish You Were Here' back in high school.

25 here, but I've liked The Moody Blues since I was about 13 or so (due to my parents and living in the birth town of Justin Hayward... and seeing them in concert in my teenage years). I was a huge Queen fan in the 1980s, which is a bit worrying now I come to think of it! My big brother always liked Pink Floyd, so I always got to hear Dark Side Of The Moon as well as Jean Michel Jarre (not that he's that prog mind you), oh and Mike Oldfield's Tublar Bells, so that's where I've got my prog interest from. I'm now more into prog than any of the family, which I quite like the thought of.

16. And I think it's great that so many young people (especially those interested in counter-culture) are turning back to classic prog  It really warms my heart.

We've had a 13 year old before. I forgot his name but I did some research: Parker, who's now 14 years old, but I don't think he posts here anymore.

I don't think it's age-related at all, I'm 18 by the way.

It seems like it really boils down to 15-20 year olds not wanting to listen to rap or new rock that they are putting out.

Ok, I am one of those guys that remembers much of the 70's prog scene being 49. It's nice to see younger people with an appreciation for progressive rock. We need more of you though. Spread the word!

Progressive rock could be birth related
Progressive rock is much like jazz or classical music, thus there will only be a limited audience for this music as it does not have easy to listen to catchy riffs or it performers are not able to dance around on stage and still be able to play the music
Progressive rock came of age with a boomer population where the small percentage of fans was still big enough to financially support making such records and touring.
When a similar boomer population occurs, then such complex music will be more accessible

Is prog-appreciation age-related?
