Funny prog story

My friend turned 17 yesterday so we could finally get into R movies. We decided to see The 40 Year Old Virgin which was a surprisingly funny movie. Anyway the "Virgin," named Andy had a framed poster of Asia in his room. One of Andy's friends then says, "Hey Andy, you know how I know you're gay? Because you like Asia. I bet the guys in the store laughed at you when you asked them to frame an Asia poster."

I guess prog fans aren't the only ones who know how horrible Asia is.

You can say that again.

 

Easy Livin actually asked me to touch over my reviews I did early last year because they do not respect the artist enough! Damn right they do not!

But I told him I would see what I could do! So I am working up the courage!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Hopefully before the end of the 21st century!!!

I quite like Asia really!

You're not missing much, but they do have nice album covers. Its worth trying to pick up some of their albums on vinyl. The covers should be framed, and the records molded into very attractive ashtrays..

if Asia were considered pop-rock, and not prog, people would probably be more inclined to like them.

Def Leppard rule!

You need to be 17 to see this film in your country? Where do you live?

You can see this movie (and any other R rated movie) if you're younger than 17 if you have an adult with you, but many places don't check (at least near where I live). If it's NC-17, you can't see it unless you are 17 (although these movies aren't allowed to adverize on TV, so it's hard to know when these are showing).

Yeah, the United States is a pretty puritanical country.  That's what happens when half the friggin' country is made up of fundamentalist evangelical Protestants.  We're so far behind the rest of the world on things like gay rights, drugs, and sex, because our country is so damn moralistic.
