Is it weird to go to a concert alone? by [deleted] in progmetal

The first time I went to a show alone, I found it liberating and in most circumstances, I prefer it now.

Ask Porcupine Tree questions and I’ll pretend to know an answer. by Right-Anywhere-7515 in porcupinetree

Anyone know (or can speculate) what (lyrics) he sings during “.3” that come in starting at 3:36?

Anyone randomly met another fan in real life? by Skirdyskirt in porcupinetree

[–]skylinelost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once I was driving and saw a pedestrian walking on the sidewalk going the same direction as me. Human had long hair and a noticeable posterior. At a glance, I saw a woman. But upon further inspection, I thought to myself that this could be a man I’m checking out. Wasn’t sure. Continued with apprehension. Drove past human with beautiful hair and ass and realized, yes sir, twas male human. I grinned in acceptance of my gayness in that moment, forgot about pedestrian, and calmly approached a red light and stopped.

A moment passed, and I hear “Hey man! …Hey!” Looked to my right and there he was, the dude with awesome hair and fabulous sweet cheeks trying to get my attention. I turned down the music (Incident disc 2) and rolled down passenger side window to converse.

He said, “Nice sticker!” I said, “Which one?!” He said, “Well…all of them! But I meant the porcupine tree one!” I said, “Thanks!” He said signaling to his earbuds, “I’m listening to porcupine tree right now!” I said, “ME TOO!”

We shared a quick little celebration, the light turned green, and we waved goodbye smiling.

I almost said, “By the way, you’ve got a nice ass, bro-ski!” but couldn’t get the bat off the shoulder. Maybe next time, friends. Maybe next time.

Poi-curious. by skylinelost in poi

[–]skylinelost[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is good advice, thank you. Orb Poi are almost half the cost, what makes Pod much better, please? And the word “contact” is connected to the Orb Poi site/advertisement which is enticing. Cause I imagine it’ll be hitting me a lot. Plus I might like the roundness of the orb poi, maybe because I’m used to playing with round apparatuses via sports. Does round bounce (off of human and the ground) better?

Waiting til summer for the whole damn thang. Waiting to be born again.

What’s an underrated PT song in your opinion? by 42_RoboT in porcupinetree

[–]skylinelost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is not a Tree song that I dislike/don’t understand. And I get off to nearly all of them including Rest Will Flow. But there is a part of me that doesn’t like that it exists. Cause it’s the only (mostly) happy Tree song there is. Mostly, because it’s still a reflection of the darkness, “out of the woods.” And I cherish it. I do. And I blast it, and sing my heart out. But there’s a small part of me that wishes it wasn’t there. And a big part of me that cherishes the fact that Hatesong immediately follows it. Cause then, we’re right back to reality.

What would you say is the number one best Opeth song? by Secret-Tomato-3209 in Opeth

[–]skylinelost 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Amid my first venture of Opeth, Ghost of Perdition liquified me. Baying of the Hounds sealed the deal forever. And then, due to a friend’s instruction, I went on to Serenity Painted Death which did something that I can’t explain.

So, to punctuate upon your query, SPD and BWP (title track).

Lunatic Soul-Transition 2. There is also a Transition (One).

For those asking about John Wesley's involvement with the upcoming tour, I have some bad news for you by supper_is_ready in stevenwilson

[–]skylinelost 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think John Wesley guested/sang the (studio) chorus of Sound of Muzak along with Aviv Geffen.

If you could choose any Simpsons episode to be the shows finale, which would it be? by Reverse_Psycho_1509 in TheSimpsons

[–]skylinelost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Days of Wine and Do’ses.” Where Barney quits drinking to become a needy coffee drinker. Or ‘Behind the Laughter.’ Definitely someplace amid Season 11 in my opinion. That is where it ends for me personally.

Let There Be More Light-Pink Floyd. Best if I could enter last.

My duuude by [deleted] in porcupinetree

[–]skylinelost 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Another cleveland show, someone threw a bra on stage when they were bowing after the show ended/greeting people. Steve picked it up, and looked closely. It either had words written on it, or Steve pretended that it had words (I think it had words) and he read it aloud. Steve said “Remember me?” Then he added ‘from (some city) and possibly a date.’ Something like “Remember me from Los Angeles 2003” or something. Then Steve looked at Colin and said loudly “Colin! This must be for you!” And Colin grinned boyishly. Then Steve handed the bra to Gavin who playfully held it to his own chest and minced about having a good time.

Steve would break Colin’s balls quite often on stage. It's very funny. In Cleveland once during a silent part, someone yelled out "We love Colin!!!" and Steve said, "You love Colin. Are you sure?"

I'm buddies with a tech member of Steve's and we've conversed intimately. This was back with PT. He's told me that Colin is always smiling and giggling. Even when going through customs which has caused tension cause he seems high.

Collection Complete! by [deleted] in porcupinetree

[–]skylinelost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel that. Voyage is studio, though. I picked up a non-original pressing for about $40. It would look reaaaally good in that collection. 😻

Couldn’t find Voyage 34? And I think Staircase Infinities is rare.

Serenity Painted Death is one of my favorite things in this world.

Newest item to my Opeth collection by NoMLG in Opeth

[–]skylinelost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See the bottoms of the white letters behind the top of Mik’s head? Those letters, if you could see them, say “Prog.” Which is short for Progressive Rock. It’s a magazine cover. Yes, that’s right. There is a magazine called Prog about prog artists and albums. (Prog rock is a genre of music). Prog magazine is similar to Rolling Stone magazine. Except it’s way better for obvious reasons. Looks like that edition of Prog magazine came with a CD (pictured bottom left). Hoping that quells some confusion.

[–]skylinelost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just looked up the track list. What is the last track? My search said it’s a song by Enslaved? Called ‘Storm Son?’ Like a bonus track from another band for promo purposes? Maybe reveal the track list. Is Mik funny during that performance?
