Time really does fly

So it's time to start writing my research paper. Here's a rough outline:

I. Historical Background of Pink Floyd
- See blogs: "This would be helpful, right?"

II. Define hippie/psychedelic rock and discuss how Pink Floyd embodies hippie values
- See blogs: "Progressive/Psychedelic Rock," "Superzap Them All With Love!"

III. Track Pink Floyd's shift from hippie/psychedelic rock group to progressive rock group
- See blogs: "Articles That May Be Helpful," "What's the difference?"

IV. Discuss in depth the progressive rock movement and how Pink Floyd fits the definition of a progressive rock group
- See blogs: "Prog Rock," "Prog Rock Revisited"

V. Introduce punk rock movement and its relationship to progressive rock movement
- State explicit distinctions
- See blogs: "Some Scholarly Articles," "Mark Andersen Talk"

VI. Show the connections between the punk rock movement and the progressive rock movement, using Pink Floyd and DSOTM as an example
- See blogs: "Breathe, breathe in the air," "Some DSOTM Facts & NME Review," "Money, it's a hit!," "Is it really all dark?," "Us & Them," "Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day," "More Dark Side Reviews"

For right now though, I'm gonna go eat some turkey!
