Hello, thanks for taking a look! My name is Fred. I have a true passion for photography and the thrill of discovering new music. A famous photographer once said that they believed there are things in the world that people would not ever see if they were not photographed. I fully agree. I like a variety of music but Progressive Rock leads the pack. Thanks to the internet and XM radio, I have been able to broaden my knowledge of many great Progressive Rock bands. Rush, Porcupine Tree, Reindel, Spocks Beard, Ozric Tentacles are only a few of a long list the impress me. Rush still remains as the single band that has had the most influence on my life. Their latest effort was a great one. Especially after their previous nightmare.
