When I discovered prog in my early teens and tried to convert all my friends,they all hated it and started to think of me as more than tolerably weird which made me even more convinced that I was on to a good thing  And when I turned up one day with an Angelo Branduardi album the shunning process was initiated right there and then!

I'm all alone here

Last time I said to my wife, You don't understand me.

Her reply, "What do you mean"

I've given up on converting my friends to "my music", but sometimes it's nice to be understood.

I only really have one friend who digs progressive rock, stuff like Tull, Floyd, King Crimson etc. The rest of my friends are into metal, but not progressive metal so I guess I'm fairly alone when it comes to listening to prog. All the chicks I know hate the stuff as well. Oh well, their problem not mine.

 Prog is to a large extent a guy thing. When I played one of my favourite Yes tracks,"Tempus Fugit" to my girlfriend she said: "But this is just noise!" And she's a music teacher!
