I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a huge fan of progressive music and host an internet radio program on Friday nights at www.progrock.com. The 4-hour program, called Epic Prog with The Lurker, spotlights the longer tracks in prog rock, mixed in among the best progressive music of yesterday and today, every Friday from 8 p.m. to midnight (EST).

This isn't like your typical radio show. Basically, I'm just a music fan, who is inviting you into my home for a few hours each Friday night and sharing my music collection with you. If you can't listen in or join us in the chat room on Friday nights, it's cool. You can check out the show anytime you like, through the magic of our weekly archive/podcast by RIGHT CLICKING HERE and choosing the "save target as" option. Feel free to stop by and hang out with me and some other like-minded music fans each Friday, or listen to the podcast.
