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".

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.

Peter's birthday was actually on November 5th. He celebrated it by playing a concert w/VdGG in Germany; a sold out show, their first German concert in almost thirty years. It was filmed by the German television program 'Rockpalast' and will be broadcast on January 15th, '06.

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.

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.

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

Congratulations Peter, all the best.

When comes the next VdGG album?
