prog? who listened to that sh*t. I sure didn't.






I consider micky's love of Ratt & Poison performance art of the highest order, he's managed to stay in character for decades, it's very impressive, method acting in the extreme, he didn't even crack when I ribbed him about it at ProgDay.

Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

Without doubt or hesitation:  David Sylvian's Gone to Earth was the proggiest thing going on that year--Fripp, Bill Nelson, Richard Barbieri, Steve Jansen, Phil Palmer, Kenny Wheeler, Mel Collins, Steve Nye, Ian Maidman, and BJ Cole all pushing the envelope.

The Shub-Niggurath album is great. Evily, horrorific, with the singer out-tuned of a quarter of tone to make it even more disturbing. One of the best representaations in music of th HP Lovecraft nightmares.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

just wait till next year when in addition to my tradition to arriving to Progday with the fanfare of Willie's The Troublemaker.. I show off true Progday fashion in my Stetson and Tony Lama's....

an act?  yeah... LOL Just wait until I crash Progday in drag.. and score more phone numbers than mere mortal women could dream of. Then you would see art... performance art... to the highest degree. 

Though unlike my ex... I don't think Raff could carry off cross dressing as a man. LOLLOL
