Who enjoys Progressive music more !?

Right & Bravo , but it seems that some fans don't like to mix between music & sence of Humour , like Zappa , and Ian Anderson ! Anyway , since 1971 , i never use headphones to listen to my favorite stuff , i enjoy my music loud in the open , on my Interface D ( electrovoice )

I play guitar, drums, bass and a bit of synth. Prog is inspiring as a musician because at its core, it's a celebration of genres, different styles of playing and compositions.

Is this a rhetorical question?

Bullcrap.  While women are in the minority there are some that enjoy it.  The sad thing is that we do enjoy this music.  What the hell is your problem?  Yeah we like complicated and weird music.  So what?  What a sad tiny little world you live in if you think you can only enjoy it with headphones on.

     what a real tight mentality my friend ( the disease ) my friend Slarti wasted his time while trying to cure these pages from your disease , cause all girls , ladies , even my mom ( 75 ) enjoys my music since a long time , but i have really to explain some points in this issue to them , and about headphones or earphones ipod mp3's usp's and all stuff around , for God sake who needs this , i have my 500RMS Denon Amp , in addition to my Interface D from Electrovoice ( made in 1978 ) and all my albums in vinyl around me in my room , and don't really care about the world outside concerning music ! and don't you ever be clever in the point of headphones while listening to Progressive music , you only enjoy it for few minutes only and yu'll have a real headache afterwards , i've had the Koss 55sp in ( $245 ) in 1979 , and throw them from the window after a week , have a good day my friend !

fair enough , but what i want you to know my friend that during my 57 years in this life , i've found that females are more attracted to Progressive more than men , and believe me in this point !!

I know only one. However she's a huge Rush fan not really interested in other prog. The other ones I know like hard rock or don't listen to rock music at all. Progressive rock is not the best music for women. Women like it simple.

surely not , they like it hard my friend , and the coming days will explain that to you !! lol

I never answer rhetorical questions! Unless you think that I think that I like progressive music more than anyone else ever.  

Btw the poster who suggested that women like progressive music... I suggest you try her (any her) out on Uduwudu - Magma (Really great prog music IMHO. - the album btw not me, ...but I don't mind...) and see what the (predictably negative) reaction  is.
