Comment by Claire (aka Cleo) on August 27, 2012 at 8:05pm: @ Sarah: "insits on giving me Prog 'lessons'..." - lol! Daddy knows best remember... %_^

Comment by Claire (aka Cleo) on August 27, 2012 at 8:03pm: @Steph - ok, I'm really impressed now! and happy to find you're a girl after my own heart! Taking Tiger Mountain is my fave, but Warm Jets is a very close second. I'm a rater at the Gnosis database [started as a prog site, but has expanded into lots of interesting/experimental/avant [non-pop] music], and WJ is a 14 out of 15 for me!

Great buttons everyone!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on August 27, 2012 at 5:58pm: Great Trashpo buttons in Greece, too! Thanks Stephanie

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on August 27, 2012 at 4:55pm: Aren't they? Fab, I love 'em--Thank You Stephanie, Claire, Diane!:

Comment by Sarah Churchill on August 27, 2012 at 4:36pm: Hey guys. Sorry to interrupt the music talk briefly (I'm an 80s Rock kinda girl myself, though my Dad insits on giving me Prog 'lessons' when I visit), but I've received my Trashpo Buttons, and they're rather awesome. Thank you!!
