Heh. I've been listening since 1961, and PT has been my favorite band for almost a decade! It took me a while but I've collected about 99% of SW & Company's PT output, even the fan club rarities. They're the best.

My favorite song of all time, by any artist, and Stupid Dream is my favorite PT release.

This sounds so different from the conception I had of POrcupine Tree (something like Tool)

I reckon this CD is their no. 2 effort after In Absentia.  It is by far the most accessible and I'm always blown away by how little recognition this CD has received.

Maybe that is because I find the CD rich in the traditions of the Beatles, Beach Boys and similar from the period?  Started listening to rock music in 1966-67. I was 10.  Probably started to figure out Cold War politics before that so who knows where my tastes come from!

We have six seats in the eighth row for their show in Toronto on September 30.

Gavin Harrison borders on unbelievable live —- the visuals are synched to the music and so he has to play all those weird time signatures to a click track.

So glad they're touring in the US again this year.
I'm hoping SW will play material from Insurgentes.

This was a nice choice. Bill plays Sentimental and My Ashes far too often considering how much great PT stuff there is out there.  {#Guitarist}
