Is this blog still alive? 😞

nope. it could be but there was a lot of drama and it’s debatable whether trying to revive this is worth it at the moment. i’m just one of the mods and i would like to see it continue in some way but i’m kind of busy with life at the moment and i’ve also been like hardcore into new wave for a while??? granted i saw a prog rock show literally last night and still love it very much but i alone don’t have the mental energy to run something that isn’t total shit. have a nice day.

hi sorry this is random but do you think the discord server will ever get revived? also do you know of any other prog/music discord’s 😔👊🏼

we were sorta talking about doing one but idk i don’t want it instantly overran with drama and i don’t know how much response we’d get. currently the only one i’m in for music mainly is our small friend group one roger @kraftfur started. if we do start another more open one, i’ll probably moderate it but i don’t want it to be just prog specific since a lot of us just want a place to talk about anything we like music or otherwise. i know the bigger problems were people who were overly dominant in conversations, disrespect especially in regards to interests and triggers, and really moreso a few people who just did not get along, there was probably too many people who wanted too many different things. so i’d like to keep it small or compartmentalized, but if you have any suggestions to avoid unnecessary drama, it’d help. that being said, having moderated in the past, i don’t see any reason for me to put up with any bullshit i had to in the past. I don’t know of any other music discords worth joining, but if anyone would like to give any suggestions i’d appreciate it. :^PPPPP

is it still possible to send a submission to join the prog squad?

ooh fam i got bad knews for you. it’s totally cool if you want to tho although i’m not the person who handles inputting stuff and all the discord groups have since self-destructed.i’d like to see the group revived but i’m a busy little badger right now and afraid i personally can’t. but! there’s always hope and while folks will throw a fit about this or whatever if anyone’s interested hmu.

i didn’t know this til i looked up the video on youtube, but this dude is a super cool and accomplished musician! his name is Rushad Eggleston–wikipedia describes him as “an innovative musician who has changed the way the cello is played,“ but according to his personal website he’s a “cello goblin & otherworldly jester currently touring earth”

this changed my life

[the-theme-is]

“More than any other genre in the music’s history, progressive rock has gotten a bum rap. "Pompous,” “self-indulgent,” “bloated,” and “pretentious” were just a few of the critics’ favorite adjectives during the genre’s original heyday, generally acknowledged as 1968 to 1978. But today, the self-appointed arbiters of taste are perpetrating a slight that’s even more offensive than hurling insults: They’re ignoring it entirely.“  ~  Jim DeRogatis This week The Theme Is: Prog Rock 68-78

i found an official spotify playlist commemorating LGBT Pride, but it only contains songs by kraftwerk?????????????

7 hours of 70s avant-garde electronic music made by 60+ year old west german grandpas, to celebrate LGBT rights. incredible

did this one as well. i received lovely reblogs and lovely feedback last time so i definitely will post more if you’re happy with my helpless romantic breakdowns. prog squad is amazing, and it’s members are lovely 💕 thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

[ronniebunnie]

i had to look at reference pics to draw tony banks’ face but i’m pretty happy with it. so sorry for the cringe but you know how i am. being 20 and still suffering after a breakup is not good for me and wants to make me draw fangirl things. i myself cringe about this but hey who cares. sorry for the long description but i needed to vent 😅❤️
