Why Progressively Twisted you may ask?

Ok, so I thought let's give blogging a chance. I don't know how often I'll post or even what I'll post about... Thinking of going with the flow. Write about whatever grabs my attention. Ok now why Progressively Twisted?.. Well most of you know it's my on and off MSN nick... and most of you even know why I chose it.. but for the benefit of those who don't here goes:

I am crazy about progressive rock (not all groups but I like quite a few of them) and I don't think am quite sane (sanity equals boredom at times for me). Hence "Progressively Twisted"

Ok maybe not insane in a clinical way but definitely not totally normal either. Here are a few examples of my craziness.. Few years ago I discovered Pink Floyd... by now I own all their albums, dvds, a fair amount of concerts and a couple of books.. after Floyd it was Prog Rock... some of the stuff I listen to is practically unheard of in India.. or at least some groups are.. One of them happens to be Flower Kings.. like Floyd am crazy about them and own all their albums (none of which are available in India mind you, all bought from amazon.. told you I was crazy...)

That just covers my listening material... am crazy about audio systems too.. I started life with a simple boombox. From there moved on to my 2nd system which was a marantz amp and monitor audio bronze speakers... This system would be good for most people but nooo not me.. Last year I shifted to my current setup which consists of: a) NAD Silverline amp and CD player (S300 + S500) b) PSB Stratus Goldi speakers. I totally love this system but am quite sure it's not my last purchase.... Priyesh at Lakozy will see to that.

Moving away from music let's talk about my other obsession: STAR TREK!! I have seen most of the episodes of all the Star Trek series... It doesn't end there... I have a ton of their ebooks (and I still want more!!!).

As you can see I like to go after things I like in a big way... If I like an author I'd like to read most of his/her works.. and so it goes...I find it strange when I see people who arn't crazy or driven about something...

I think I have rambled enough for one post. Later.
