The first time I heard the MASTER drumming in "Master

drumming on "You" is unsurpassed by any drummer, and "Master Builder"
simply blows you away.

for all you go on about it... I should bite the bullit and take a listen.

exactly I couldn't agree more.... for example I am a fabulous

never think of telling people about and carrying on about it. Bad
form indeed

probably Syd Barrett. I was about 12, this was before I discovered the prog giants, still BBarrett really inspired me.

Why would a parent force their child to pick up drums? That's nothing short of masochistic.

David Gilmour and Alex Lifeson. The way they brought music out of their guitars floored me, and i got an acoustic guitar for my birthday and havent looked back.

One of my biggest inspirations is Jerry Garcia. I know i'll probably never play like he did, but whenever i listen to the Grateful Dead, i think to myself "That's how a guitar should be played".
Funny anecdote: i initially made a typo writing that aboce sentence, i misspelt "how" as "howe". Coincidence? I think not... :)

well, ludwig van beethoven made me want to start playing piano in the first place, but it was jordan rudess mainly that got me to start playing prog, as well as playing outside of classical in the first place.

For some random reason about 5 years ago all my friends decided to buy guitars. Not wanting to be left out, I decided to get one as well. Im still playing, but I think they all gave up after a few months
