Nope, but Maani and others have.
I seem to be far from everyone else....

It's looking entirely possible that I'll meet Markus (BebieM) at some point in the next couple months.

Actually, it would be a good idea to have a Progarchives meeting point at the next Genesis reformation concert (see my thread of April 1st) so we could all have a beer (or ten) than belt out all our frustrations built up in our forum arguments, kill each other, so that way , progheads will be an endangered species, and more attention will be paid to have better music brought to mass medias, so that the vlast few alive will be kept alive until slow but irreversible extinction will eradicate us for good.
Where do I pull this stupid dreams from?!?!

let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword

On a more serious note, I think that some UK members met at a few concerts !
We could imagine having a few members meeting at a given concert in say London or Paris for Europeans and a few others at a concert in say NY or Montreal (apparently a lot of central Canadians - Quebec and Ontario).
I suppose it might be tougher for members living in the far east (Martin and Gatot) and for Southern Americans (Mirco , Cesar and Iván and more)

If you did meet a forum member of this site what would be your first reaction?
i'd probably say in my head "oh my god thats"... (whoever).

I ran into the Owl at last years Cal-prog. Garion and I, along with our significant others, are gonna meet at this years Cal-Prog. Coincidently, our seats ended up side by side. Odd, very odd. We purchased tickets a couple of days apart and I actually returned the first pair because they were too far stage right, I wanted center. The second pair were adjacent to Garion's seats, smack dab in the middle. Weird.
Cygnus only lives 2 hours away, but he's not old enough to drink beer yet.

I'm relatively close to the so-cal boys, but they're going to have to impress me a little more with the Cal-Prog lineup before I brave the outlying LA suburbs. 
On the other hand, anyone coming to Vegas is welcome to drop me a line.

Maybe next year James
That is pretty wierd, Danbo, about the tickets. Part of the reason why is we asked for the same seats we had for The Musical Box show in December and I actually think we would have been in the first or second row if we hadn't. This is going to be a great show. 
Hey, but people like K-9 and Wallace who log on with multiple idenities if your ever out in public you must wear a name tag telling us who they are at that moment.

Hey, if any of you all live in Northern California, I'd be glad to meet up to hoist a few and play a few prog rock classics!

No, she's as Polish as I am, but she learns your language avidly (and I knew her nick would cause a Fin to react - what does 'pikkumyy' mean, BTW?)
