Genesis, particularly Peter Gabriel-era Genesis, is my favorite band. I've played around with using names from their songs as usernames for years, but it's only when I joined Reddit that I decided I should try to settle on one. I've always been fond of this track off their 1972 album Foxtrot. So if you should see some variation of this username online, it's probably me.

It says 'It's one o'clock and time for lunch, dum dee dum dee dum' in Tengwar script from the Silmarillion.

Two things that have kept me going for over 50 years. LOTR and prog ;-)

The character in that song totally would have been a Hobbit.
