Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Let’s talk legacy a bit. And band and crosswinds. Prog Digest is not always about music – as those who have read this column from time to time know. It is, however, about themes and thoughts and timing and influence. Beyond the musings you see […]
Prog Digest – February 2025 – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Welcome to the month of two made-up holidays. One, where if your wife/lover/significant other/partner says “Oh, don’t get me anything,” they really mean, “I don’t want any of that nasty ol’ cheap chocolate in a heart-shaped box. It better be expensive Belgian […]
Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Happy New Year, Louis! Happy New Year, Billy Ray! And who won the One Dollar? Well, who really cares – Louis not only had the champagne, lobster, and cracked crab, but Ophelia to boot. The new year is always filled with hope and all that […]
Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. New York. London. Paris. Munich. Everybody Loves….M – Pop Muzik. How many of you actually recall that song?

Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Once Upon a Time – in a Galaxy Far, Far Away … Well, OK – it was Downtown Troy at the Troy Savings Bank Music Hall and it was 2007. Klyde does travel down memory lane from time to time, and will wax poetic about […]

Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Well, howdy kids! It’s story time with your ‘ol Uncle Klyde. I’d have invited you to my summer camp – but that damned Ernie ruined it for the rest of us. This is a story older than most. Indeed – it really begins in the […]
Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Welp, this month, ol’ Klyde was gonna make a rant about the misuse of the words “progress” and “progressive,” with the topic revolving around the dumbest implementation of a system that is supposed to be better, more efficient, and more convenient … which it is […]
Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. Progressive … There are so many possible definitions, as a noun or adjective. Most relate to political or governmental action for “improvement.” Neither of these are for discussion in this forum. Hell, these are topics that are mostly off-limits, as you need my perspective (or […]
Prog Digest – An Xperience Column – by Klyde Kadiddlehumper. What a long strange trip it’s been. No, this is not another Grateful Dead article. While I like the Dead and have a ’72 VW bus with a custom plate, that is not where we are headed this month. We are going to be visiting […]
