Evidently because he got a lot more women than most of you over the years...

And your Boyfriend probably Doesn't understand irony, Sattire or Hyperbole never mind the litotes and pathos sometimes employed by the more erudite amongst the forum......

He's young and Irish, so you're probably right about that... but he does know a lot of bollocks when he reads it...

Video, I do if Video Vertigo by Rush is prog though.

You asked for it.

you know I realized yesterday, there is no song called Video Vertigo by Rush, but if there was one it'd probably be prog. (Video vertigo is a line during Test for Echo)

Hyperbole is a fun word.

And bisexuality?

Ironically, in just about every prog (or metal, interestingly enough) community I've been deep in besides this one, homosexuality/bisexuality is DEFINITELY considered prog (or metal). Not sure why, but there seem to be more people "out" in the prog or intelligent metal circles than, say, country.

Could you REALLY make love to a man ??? - This hero worship is a strange phenomenon, I love Genesis and Yes - but if I was sat in a Restaurant with my wife and Mr Hackett or Mr Howe was on the table next to me - I would ignore them in favour of the Wife who has given me my two fine sons, I bend my knee to no man......

Fair enough.If I was in the restaurant and assuming your wife is a 'looker' then I would probably ignore them as well.

Well,to say I would ignore them is probably going too far. After all,I've been a massive Hackett fan since I was 14 so ignoring the fact that he was sitting right next to me would be a bit on the impossible side. But as for having sex with him (if he swung that way),absolutely bloody not under any circumstances whatever!

sorry to have offended those who I did, obviously ELP is prog, I meant this to be a bit satirical.

and spartacus,I don't think Test for Echo is a prog album. I was actually listening to Video Vertigo when I registed (i sure am creative) its got prog potential but isn't really progressive.

Man, what's with some of you guys? Threefates is one of our best posters, as is Ke9 and so many others of you. Some of them have an unhealthy obsession with ELP.

GUESS WHAT!?

We're PROGGERS. Unhealthy obsessions with bands that most people don't care for is WHAT WE DO. Do we really have to right amongst ourselves with the same jabs that we get from the public at large? We should LOVE each other! In bed AND out!

I have an unhealthy obsession with: The Mars Volta, King Crimson, Pain Of Salvation, The Flower Kings, and the sexy Daniel Gildenlow.

I would make love to this man.

Now, make fun of THAT instead of someone's energetic appreciation for the works of mssrs Emerson, Lake, and Palmer.

Daniel's nice but nowhere near as cute as Geddy

I think you're forgetting the most attractive of them all...
