Congratulations Peter, all the best.

When comes the next VdGG album?

Snowdog - Yes, Bjork is cool, but Peter is one of the prog-rock originals (up there with Gabriel, Fripp, etc) and, this being a prog board, a tip of the hat is merited.

Ok I'll start a new thread for every prog birthday from now on...

Argh, happy belated birthday pH!

If it's any consolation, it's my brother's 30th tomorrow, but he isn't a prog musician...

I was listening to "A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers" in the car and it sounded so damn good!

Also, my Wobbler CD arrived and it's wonderful.

I also bought Opeth - Ghost Reveries and Coheed and Cambria and that annoyingly longed titles album of theirs!  Yet to hear them though.

What irritates me most is that I've been to the VdGG gig at the Leverkusener Jazztage on Nov 5th and didn't know that it (as it now seems, since I checked other sources on the web, and they all say Nov 5th) was a b-day gig.

The source I have says Nov 22nd, but I must admit I like Nov 5th better; it would explain why PH uses a scorpio on the cover of "Chamaeleon in the Shadow of the Night". So maybe it should be "Happy belated birthday".

     For that matter, today is also JFK's death day. Hard to believe, 42 years
ago, perhaps my first memory, the dream of a changed America was
ambushed in Dallas, and we went on to Viet Nam, and now the same
corrupt power cabal has dragged us into the morass of Iraq. Oh well,
better to remember more cheerful things like Peter's birthday. Thanks,
Peter, for staying true to your vision.

Here we are stranded in the latter half
Of the 20th Century
But it might as well be the Middle Ages.
There'll have to be some changes,
But how they'll come about foxes me...

I WANT THE FUTURE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy birthday Pete, whose music is so dark and sinister it drives me insane.
