Long time lurker finally joins..

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello all! After finding this site about two years ago, I've finally got round to joining up. 

It was the addition of the bands Led Zeppelin and Rainbow into the archives recently which was the turning point - I really wanted to review some of their material. 

The last two bands may give you a clue to my music taste, it's primarily hard rock and prog (of course), though I listen to a broad spectrum of material encompassing many sub-genres of rock and metal.

Some of my favourite prog and prog related artists include: Rush (recognise my username..?), Pink Floyd, Yes, Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, Rainbow, Queensrÿche, Genesis, Riverside, Primus, Led Zeppelin and Porcupine Tree.

Additional info? Well I'm probably one of the younger members at 18. I also play bass guitar (a nice sunburst Fender Jazz Bass à la John Paul Jones) and I live in merry old England. 

That's all, looking forward to getting involved.

	I set a course just East of Lyra, and Northwest of Pegasis. Flew into the light of Deneb, sailed across the milky way. On my ship, the Rocinante, wheeling through the galaxies Headed for the heart of Cygnus, headlong into mystery... Welcome home, fellow proghead ! Enjoy your stay among prog maniacs !
