As an old prog fan, since the late 60’s , I do enjoy getting a younger opinion & exposure to neoprog from your show. I remember well biking to pick up lp of Strawbs From the Witchwood when it came out. , Seeing the original Thick as a Brick tour, Seeing the Pink Floyd Animals tour 4 days in a row, Nektar with Larry Fast doing Recycled, etc. But my comment actually has to do with your remark on the weather, as I did live in Chicago from 1978-84 & in December 1981 it was minus 24° with a wind chill of minus 87°; as I had to go out that day for residency interview & had el tracks freeze up several miles from my stop. So 15 below isn’t the coldest you’ve been in, unless you’re even younger than I think 🙂
Thanks for the comment! I am pretty old, older than I sound on the podcast I have to say @ 47 years old.
It’s really been brutal out here this year in general another 50 consecutive hours under zero. Looking forward to April 5th and Opening day at Wrigley.
