PROG GOONS ONLY

[C]

Do remember that great little paragraph that Maarts wrote a few years back during the prog wars?

It was stunning - I wish I could find it

Yes, I wish I could find it

I think I was on really good painkillers at the time.

Indeed - it was brilliant Maarts

Not sure you can, as the prog father himself can't find it!

It went somewhere down the lines of ' we are the hideous and disfigured children of BCB, shunned by our peers, hidden in our underground caves shielded from the sunlight, pale and diseased, being spat and trodden on by the self-righteous and vainglorious upper elite, never cowering but forever towering in our capes, wielding our prog-wands over the lands, spreading the joys of 9/4, 5/6 and 12/11 over all the cloth-ears of these boards...

Surely that is the remix version!?

Tried to look for the original post myself but it seems about 4500 posts of mine have gone missing over the years.
A pox on the blight of these boards.

I can almost see the capes waving!

[never/ever]

They waved as proud as patriotic flags in those days.
But seriously, I'm glad to see some good debate lately on prog.

Agreed Leif -the original wasn't as good as the remix....!!

Clearly not accidental!

It is a plot to scourge us - remember the first 565 pages of Prog Corner....??

Accidents like that don't happen Maarts

Nay, accidents like that don't happen Maarts

Here you go. I Googled "disfigured children of BCB" and found this from 2010:

Dear Meanie,


You don't know us. In fact this whole community don't want you to know us.
We are lepers. We are being shunned so, in turn, we shun them. We are the children in the attic. We are the eternal hibernators, shunning the daylight. We are being mocked, spat at, abused, all gathered here and thrown in this deep, deep well. Our hideous, disfigured bodies do not function, yet our centuries-old sharp minds are timeless. We are the Mystics, shamen of progressive music, wearers of capes, worship the Moog as a tabernacle and tub-thumpers are our saviours. We pray to the Power Of Yes and read the chapters of Genesis in our bibles. We silently congregate and through the combined powers of our oversized brains we leave these trails of progness, as a means to communicate with the outside world. Yet we remain hidden. But not silent.
And when our captors aren't looking we sometimes flip them the finger and post something here that is not prog. We laugh and smile in our beards and for one fleeting moment all is well within our worlds.

Welcome, my child. Welcome.

Fuck me. What the HELL was I on at the time?
