Behave that age, then. The first post i've read from you was for dismissing SAE equipment as "trailer park shite" (sic). When are you going to contribute something useful to the forum?

His hair was below his hips.
This was when they were making fuss over the puny length of McCartney's hair.

I was unaware until now that follicular fecundity was a valid indicator of musical progressivism. It does explain your peculiar affection for Mr. Wakeman's noodling at the keyboard; the sheen of his flowing golden locks must positively overawe you.

Like I said, progmens are hirisute and masculine and sleep-around with lots of womens.
In your most desperate dreams YOU TOO wish to be a Man of Prog.

(Myself however am a chromedome. Maybe that explains why - even though I possess two Hammond organs - I cannot play them.)

I liked the duct tape on the botom 3 strings.........the guitarist then doesn't have to watch what he's doing............LOL, what a bunch of clowns.

brings to mind the punch line of a "drummer" joke........

"A podiatrist knows how to buck up the feet"

I guess you know it's not just any gutarist. It's Fredrik Thordendal of Meshuggah.

I am harbouring serious second thoughts about this forum.

Why are you not posting pics of your Progs?

It can only mean.....(currently playing ELP "Barbarian")

if you say so.........can't say I've ever heard of him.....just wondering why "talent" has to rely on duct tape to not strike the lower strings with the plectum

As others have pointed out, you're a troll. But I'm more interested to know why you feel pride in being ignorant? Why this smug satisfaction in being stupid? I guess there's no arrogance like the arrogance of the know-nothings.

So if it's not 4/4 it's not a beat?

From Wiki:

In 1988, at the age of 20, Morgan Ågren was, along with Mats Öberg, invited by Frank Zappa to do a guest performance at Zappa's Stockholm concert. Impressed by Ågren's skills, Zappa invited Ågren to the States to partake in several projects, including the 1994 Grammy Award winning CD, Zappa's Universe, with Steve Vai as well as a sold out New York performance of Zappa's classical program at Lincoln Center's Great Performers Series in Avery Fisher Hall.
