                                      Thanks Easy Livin Thumbs%20Up 
 
Yesterday I received a huge pile of new progrock cd's and dvd's to review, I have also bought some interesting items and I am putting lots of rare video's on DVD with my new Panasonic video-dvd recorder (I have added Rock Aid Armenia and Through The Camera Eye by Rush to Prog Archives this weekend) so be prepared for many reviews the forthcoming months, from Hamadryad and Conqueror to new work by Jane and Hoelderlin!
 
 
Just in case Erik, Hoelderlin is touring right now!! I saw three weeks ago in Verviers (Liège-Luik) and I took the liberty of saying there was a market for their type of music in the NL.
 
I told them that while Camel plays only one concert in Belgium in a tour, they play at least three or four in Netherlands. They seemed fairly interested. You might want to investigate (or have an organizer do it). The Drummer is the only original, but the bassist has been there since Rare Birds. The violinist ans singer is mega-cute too. They play a majority of of the "new" album and two from the 2nd, one from Clowns and two or three from Rare Birds.

1000 reviews? I can do that easy! Ian Anderson just has to release a WHOLE LOT of new material.

Okay I just thought it would be funny to post some information:
 
Even though it appears to be a massive achievement that Sean Trane has hit 2000+ reviews, he is still far from the unltimate progressive goal!
 
I've taken the top 5 reviewers and showed you their percentage of albums reviewed from the website, enjoy.
 
 
 
Sean Trane - 13.3%
Gatot - 6.8%
erik neuteboom - 6.8%
Easy Livin - 6.5%
loserboy - 5.6%

This evening I wanted to check out a fact and noticed this:
 
the homepage mentions:
 
  1. Sean Trane (2027)
  2. Gatot (1032)
  3. erik neuteboom (1029)
But the Collaborators section mentions (also today):
 
  • erik neuteboom (erik neuteboom)
    Symphonic Prog Expert
    Joined date: 7/27/2005 | Posts: 5567| Last visit: 7/14/2007 5:05:41 PM EST
    Reviews: 1032
    Send Private Message

    • Is the Collaborators section its time ahead Wink ?

    Anyway, I am working on that 1032 reviews but when I will reach it, I don't know but definitely not today!

    You must have 3 ratings only Erik, or reviews which are too short to count as reviews.
     
    Good luck finding them!
