Simon "Bilbo" Doy, DJ for Bilbo's Prog Show
Woking, England

I'm English and I'm from a town called Woking 20 miles SE of London. Aged 42 I am grateful for being a teen during the 'Golden Era' of progressive rock. The 'Bilbo' part of the name comes from an old nick I used in forums, chat rooms, and previous radio shows. Watch out for the signature tune 'The Hobbit' by Mr Spock himself which leads into my 3 hr show on Mondays.
  
Favourite bands: Genesis, Spock's Beard, Saga, Happy The Man, and It Bites.
Hates: Bad lyrics, uninspired progressive rock, drum kits that stick out as not matching the music.
 
Oh and I'm blind but please don't let that get in your way as it certainly doesn't get
in mine! lol
