First Prog

[MrMagoo]

Damn OHD, my musical journey is almost the same as yours! Grew up on classical & big band, played the same in jr & sr high. A smattering of folk from folk & square dancing. Morphed into Woodstock bands in the early 70's, then KSAN/KSJO/KZSU in the Bay Area started a bit of prog occasionally, and I was running sound for my friends band. Started doing concerts & shows, including JCSS/Hair/etc. My first 2 albums were Yes Fragile & ELP Tarkus. All was lost thereafter...

Perchance we may have stumbled upon a recurring motif here. Do you think us proggers have a propensity for the dramatic?

Not me.

Then again, I don't like fantasy or know computers either.

I thought nearly all proggers were D+D.....most of those that I've met have been Drunk and Disorderly at the end of the evening.
