Thou hast my arris precariously positioned above yon Spur of Undecision for I knowest not of this "Giraffes".
However know thou my regal brow is arched in suspicion.
The  appearance of guile   is not welcome in this court.Thou thinkest me gudgeon? Wherefore cometh this news of "Giraffe" of which I have not been informed of through my ministers? Is this spawn of the heretic land of  Guernsey? For if I discover it is so, God's Bodkins!, the halls shall swell with the pulse of spillit blood!
 
My manservant, Dan Dan, shall sift you for further disclosure of this creature, "Giraffe" and then we shall decide your fate at later date.

Person being;:
 
by what brazen artifice dost thou mix the profane with the sublime?
 
Thou castest this die before me, yet makes no sense.
 
Not every flower hath sweet perfume ,and methinks I smell the rot of seeping puss.
 
Be careful.

Gavin of the Porkupin-id Tree - Baggs hath no relish for this or its Japan/Cocteau-twinish inspiration.
Yet...
thy inclusion of the much,much-celebrated "Cheerful Insanity of..." lp more than makes up for the above frailty of taste.
 
Hence, I reserve my judgement...

T'would seem some have found reason to cast aspersions upon Baggs (The Man) that , progwise, Baggs is mired in idolatry of The Past.
I ask you all -  same personages now -  art thy scruples justified?
 
For, look ye, I now declare "Lex Rex" is indeed a worthy work.

Tis most perplexing that the prevailing trend seemeth to be God Speed You Black Emperor.
 
......................
Zappaholic: it bodes not well thou hast say here at all for didst not  Mr Zappa himself bodily declare his music has naught to do with prog? Yet thy moniker puts Franklin on a pedestal here ON A PROG FORUM. What manner of base perversion is this to so get entertainment of attempting to gull us true knights of progdom.
 
What boots it for thou to even make appearance here before us.
 
Take thy gammon escutcheon of yellow pee and weasels (Rampant  and Sanglant)  ripping flesh to a forum concernid with novelty-rock, not prog.

Necro:
You would do well to mind the saying: "He is known by his companions."
 
You are, as you say, young -and inexperienced in the travails of Prog.
 
One would speak to such as thou of Michealangelo, Donatello and da Vinci  and you would spout back persiflage extolling  pizza-devouring Teenage Ninja Terrapins.

It appears there is no love for those of us who prefer a, shall we say, more "modern" tinge to our prog rock, eh?
Ah well, such it will be.  I of course will never have a say in such matters, as I am nothing but a humble djentleman who prefers the extremities of ear-shattering metal to the pleasantries of classic prog rock, and as we all know much too well, those ne'er-do-wells are best left unperturbed, lest they become offended rather quickly.

Baggs (The Man) has not edited a single post in this thread. Clap  We bow down in awe.

ODE TO A BAGGMAN
 
Oh resplendent Baggs, beloved amongst all men,
How thou dost whistle thy wisdoms from the midst of this hoary wilderness, our Void
 
How graciously, selflessly thou dost hold thy beacon lantern high in this swirling Ignorance
So to light our passage towards Enlightenment!
 
Oh glorious one, oh Baggs, indeed THE MAN
In what fire wast thou  forged?
What sweating gods fed it?
What talents pounded and shappid thy mettle into present state of supremacy?
 
Didst they who made thee even expect such delight of final product?
 
 
Oh He of the Mighty Scrotal Baggs,
Virtual panjandrum of prog acumen,
What depth of sapience we see exhibited here?
Neath thy firey actinic gaze and smouldering brow.
 
Where, oh where doth Majesty flourish but betwix the supple , accomodating thighs
Of seemly Prog pansophy
 
And what but better conduit to take us there?
 
Baggs, preserve us from the  thousandfold   mite- bites of popinjay newbie-creatures which assail us daily.
For we are but weary knights of honour struggling forward on the path you have graciously laid us.
 
Protect us from legions of Lapsed Ones, beings of the hoi polloi  which cast  bodily mucks upon our worn armour
And gibe and jeer our passage as we harrow our way through their ignominious hinderances.
 
And forgive them, for it avails none to follow THEIR course.
(May their eyes feast on "Three And A Half Men"  for eternity.)
 
Master prog schollard, Baggs,
Mayest God preserve and keep thee.
 
And may sirens and wyverns shriek their dismay, may hedgerow blackbirds sing out their heart's delight,
The day you makest THINE passage to met thy maker.
 
 
Bestow upon us reaching vessels,
but wee gobbets of thy emmense prog schollardship.
For even modicums of Greatness will suffice to uplift our souls.
 
Teach us, master.
Our ohren be avidly ope!
 
Teach us, for we crave DELIVERANCE.

There are too many weirdos in Canada. They scare me. I seriously want to move to another country.

Oh to be in Leutonia on a warm, moonlit night (relaxing under the wisteria clusters swaying in the soft breeze).

 
I have a 70s concdert poster collection.
 
Actually I have only this one (valuable) poster.

This is no way to treat a prog schollard - to put him down in the "Z's" where naught but silliness visits.
 
"Just for Fun" me arris.
 
My thread has nothing to do with trivia or ferkin' games.
 
It belongs at least in the "Lists" lounge or further up the pole.
 
Disgusting.
 
This stinks!
