[TheStuddz]

I like the White Stripes. Therefore, I liked that discussion. Bravo.

[MagicMurderBag7]

Good idea highlighting the song titles.

[TheStuddz]

Good idea highlighting the song titles.

Yeah, I really liked that too. Could you guys do that every time?

[SuperTigerMario]

Yeah I'll continue doing that.

[Nirvaniac]

Get out of my thread...

I see no reason to.

[Stephaniescooby]

Banned for imposing admission requirements!
Oh.. sh*t, wait... wrong thread.

Yeah, I really like the song names highlighted!

[Gowienczyk]

The only "prog" that "magazine" likes is Pink Floyd.

In my opinion they are the worst prog group ever.

They're even the worst psychedelic group.

Only someone with inexperience will say this.

[Witticus]

Only someone with inexperience will say this.

Sadly that's not the worst of it.
