I'm famous within a 14 block area. Does that count? |

I'm a L.B.R.S (Low Budget Rockstar) But things are looking up right now. I just joined a band as the drummer (my main insturment) and the guitar player is really good. So maybe in like......five years from now it might happen. But I'm not counting on it.  |

Hey there! Im also a drummer, but I value my BOSS pedals more than my drumkit.  I play in a local band as a drummer too. but definitely not a rockstar..  |

| I guess that depends on how we're classifying "rock stars". I'm sure some of us fit into that somehow. |

What is a secret rockstar??? Is it like “Philemon Arthur & the Dung” from Sweden? This was a “band” recording at home (with primitive instruments and recording-equipment) in the early 70´s, couldn´t barely play or sing, but the result was amazing, really a cult-record in Sweden/Scandinavia. It´s so good it´s almost unbelievable, it has sold a lot of copies during the years, was even nominated for a Grammy in Sweden. Some people love their recordings some don´t get it at all. By the way, their lyrics were terrific. AND nobody knows who did these recordings, for all years newspapers etc have tried to reveal their names, with zero result. I have myself asked a lot of musicians involved in the Swedish Progg-movement, nobody knows….. That is what I call a secret rockstar! Sunburst: have you heard them???

| Hmmm, I did not know about that band. But my knowledge about the Swedish Progg movement is also limited and doesnt extend much further than Michael Wiehe and Björn Ulwaeus. |

Sunburst, then you have missed some of the most thrilling “music” produced during that era. Give it a try, either you hate it or love it, but I promise you a good laugh at least.
For none-Swedes: If you don´t understand Swedish, you miss about 90% of this records greatness. |

Well, I have never been into Progg music, but if I come across that band, I will listen to it.  |

If you include Björn Ulvaeus in the Progg movement, then you have a loooong way to go. ABBA was considered the enemy....
Then again, if you were actually referring to Björn Afzelius - now that would be different...  |

Hehe...seems like a typo snuck in there. I meant of course Björn Afzelius. Must have been a little tired when I wrote that earlier.  |
