Progressive Underwear and other merchandise

I didn't understand the context but two of the bands you mentioned are two of my favorite, so what are you talking about?

My Gentle Giant cap and giant head mousepad just arrived.  They're very nice.  As you move the mouse back and forth across the pad it looks like he's playing peek-a-boo with you. 

I actually find the whole idea of wearing a band a bit ridiculous. Of course, I too have a cool Opeth´s Watershed with tour dates t-shirt, but it´s one and I wear it just like any other t-shirt. But when all you wear are band t-shirts all the time (which is the case with a lot of metal fans) it´s just becomes a cartoon. In one of my university classes there is this guy who always wears, and I mean ALWASYS, an Iron Maiden t-shirt, Iron Maiden bag, Iron Maiden jacket and/or pullover and Iron Maiden shoes... WTF?!?! There is fanatism and there is being a f**king idiot, and he has crossed that line. But the funniest part is that two years ago he was also with me in another class and he dressed all punk bands... so it´s not that he is an uber Maiden fan, it´s in his nature to be a f**king idiot... If he keeps "evolving" (man, I´m such a snob) from punk to metal... the next thing is prog... Rush thongs perhaps?

I got a Yes logo and a Genesis Lamb Lies logo hat from the cafepress

Do any of you have a link to places where they have Prog backpacks/bags and other merchandise that is not CDs?

Hi,

Well that certainly pissed of my bonfire.

..hmm, what to do with my Rick Wakeman gravy boat

Progressively naked? If not take your business else where.

There hasn't been any *truly* progressive underwear in decades. I mean, what was the last under-garment that was truly innovative and broke new ground?
