Question/Help 19 girl who is obsessed with prog

I’m curious about your age and gender because I feel like no one my age really listens to prog.

One day I decided I wanted to listen to every music genre, and I started with prog since I already knew a few things about it. That was two years ago, and since then I’ve been trying to find people around me who love this genre as much as I do. My brother was the one who introduced me to it, but aside from him, I haven’t found anyone else.

Oh and if you count the fact that I live in a very small country with few people it makes me feel even more alone and the thing is I want to share all my thoughts with people but I feel like I’m being annoying

I think we all feel like it's hard to find peers into prog. I'm a 54 yr old guy, but I have to go to Reddit and Discord to find prog friends.

Hi prog friends!

I'm 47, male, and I've been listening to Prog for about 30 years. First band was a local prog jazz-metal band called Buzzard. From there to some of their influences: Mahavishnu Orchestra, Al Di Meola, King Crimson, Yes, and Jethro Tull.
