Worked fine for me.

Mebbe use the words tags in the URL and Google under New York Times.com or any other major publication...

It was the spinny thing that got me, but, yeah, they should have caught that (in more ways than one). Sorry Geddy, but this is NOT the way to go.

Jeez. :sosp:

I'm sure we've all spent a few solitary moments in quiet reflection but has anyone given any thought onto the direction that Rock & Roll, and indeed RR, takes from here?

Quo Vadimus?


...and how do we help prevent our remaining icons from befalling such a cruel, cruel fate?

Let us hope, nay pray, that it is so. Nonetheless, so august a publication as NYT rarely prints such on a lark.

No, I fear the time is at hand for us to say goodbye to our mazurka-like time signatures and prehistoric bird callings and travel onward with our musical journey. Fight the good fight, wherever you may be, oh beaked-one.

Geez, I even put the word "birdschnozz" in the tags...like anyone's gonna use that in a headline. You get cranky when someone messes with your objects of veneration.

That wasn't the gaffe I meant. I didn't need the link, I knew the thread was bull just by the title.

Yeah, I get a little testy when you mess with my men. I'm very protective you know.

I usually have the radio on in the background at work and I kept wondering why something like this wouldn't have been all over the place. Remind me next time to skip to the end I should have been in bed by now. Bobsticks I owe you one but it will take a while to think of something deserving of such a dastardly deed.

Prog is for those of higher intelligence, so we don't expect everyone to get it. Those who don't sure put a hole in the theory of evolution.

That's funny. And all this time I thought prog existed solely to make all other human endeavors seem interesting in comparison.

But then again I'm not into sci-fi or comic books and don't need songs written about such moronica.
