... I haven't received a Christmas card from him since.


Actually, not so funny, Cassidy (and his wife, I think) co-wrote a song with
Asia on their Then and Now album (which included Downes).


Oh, how the mighty have fallen.



I heard something like that some time ago ... it's what gave me the idea of
the David Cassidy story.

I would not describe them as famous...more along the lines of 'currently residing in the where are they now file'...

Hi, my name is John Myung. Maybe you've heard of me. Im the bassist of Dream Theater.

I don't speak much because i'm kind of shy, but forums like this one let me show my real personality. I hope you like our new cd "octavarium".

There will be a new album on 2006 so keep an eye on our website: www.dreamtheater.net

I can't tell you the new album's name because mike says it's simply too awesome, and because of that the new album's name will be revealed the day the album reaches stores.

By the way, for you who didn't know, my middle name is "Ro".. yeah I spelled it right.

Good bye, my friends.

I am Glenn hoddle of the  late 70's early 80's band The Tottenham Hotspur. A free moving soloist i jammed regurlarly with the likes of Osvaldo Ardilles. The group was Hoddle Lead guitar, Ardilles, Rhythym Guitar,Ricky Villa Keyboards, Steve Archibald Drums,Garth Crooks percussion and Graham Roberts Vocals. I then went pop and had a short career in the late 80's where i scored a hit in France with Diamond lights a duet with Chrissy waddle in a band called Cheezy peez. Bueno Estente!

     I was the keyboardist of a famous prog band, I won't say which, but we
got much better after the singer left, he was always coming out in bloody
silly costumes where he couldn't even get the microphone up to his
bloody mouth to sing, I mean Christ, that's his bloody job isn't it, and
then the costume changes taking forever while we had to improvise till he
got back, the abstruse lyrics and stories that nobody comprehends, it was
just too much really. Things were alright after that for awhile, the albums
started to move finally, but the guitarist, you know we had to give him
something to do, although we didn't really need him, it was keyboard
driven music, but we always had to give him parts to do his bloody
noodling, and it was too much really, so finally he left, and then we
were...oops, almost gave it away...then we could finally get serious, get
down to essentials, you know, songs about dancing and things that really
matter to people, then Michelob started sponsoring our tours, that was
really exciting, except the giant bottle behind the stage didn't really go
well with the lasar light show, but then things REALLY got moving. Now
we'll never have to play a bloody note again, thank God.

Hi I am Mike Oldfield.

My hobbies include reading, watching movies and thinking of yet another version of Tubular Bells I can record.

If anyone knows where I can get a copy of some Flute and Voice (Indo-Prog/Raga Rock) albums please PM me! Many thanks!
