First I was like -
Then I went all-
I’m sorta embarrassed I went through a phase of this, but who doesn’t experiment in college?
I hung on to mellow-crap phase for years and years until something happened and I discovered Tool. Changed my life. It’s made me who I am today.
Which is someone who digs crap like this:
Now it’s time for you to confess. Or not. Like anyone here can stay on topic.

Vicar in a tutu. It’s really something.
I have eclectic taste in music. Very little of which is reflected in this poat.

much better poat poated.
It’s interesting to hear the media clips from Rush, all surprised and shit that a Catholic Pope supports the Catholic doctrine. Are they really that stupid? I know they have an agenda but really? A new guy is going to come in and marry gays and start fundraising for abortion…
See? this is why I don’t poat.

Every garage band in the early 70s had to know how to cover this song:

Sorry, Car IN.
I was writing that while you were all talking about making new poats.
More to the topic, I didn’t do much music growing up (dad worked 3rd shift). Didn’t have records. Listened to radio. Liked Wings and Bowie.
Nowadays, I like all sorts but still don’t listen much. I like peace and quiet more. (I encouraged my kids to learn an instrument, of which they did several years)

Good song. I like Sea of Joy by them as well.
I have a wider range of musical taste – I was just focusing on a few that I kinda obsessed over.
I actually like just about everything but rap and country.
I was the kid in her room, headphones on, playing those records for hours on end.
Top 40 or country was all there was on the radio when I was a kid, my parents listened to John Denver and The Statler Brothers. We watched Hee-Haw. As a teen we got cable and MTV so my interests moved on to 80′s glam rock hair bands, which I still like. I didn’t hear much classic rock until I went to college, and could listen to an AOR station out of Pittsburgh, then I started liking the 60s and 70s rock.
Now I don’t listen to much music, my oldest son likes certain metal songs, youngest likes techno stuff. I don’t think I’ve bought a CD or paid for a music download since the 90′s.
Even classical. Musicals. I really liked Bolero until that movie came out and ruined it for me.
Detroit had some awesome radio stations, so I was pretty much able to find/hear it all.
Listening to English blues bands like The Stones, Paul Butterfield, Led Zeppelin, etc. made me explore the origins of that music. I fell in love with American electric blues.

We had one of the countrys first “new music” stations which was so totally awesome. One DJ had a special show on sunday nights and I used to tape them. Then California discovered him and he moved over there.
*cries in memory like the fat teenage girl I was at the time.
Loved Zeppelin. Never into The Stones. Or The Who.
[looks around for Cyn]
I LOVED pink floyd.
“new music”??
I don’t know how to do that fancy “check if poat is being written” thing Wiser mentioned in that other poat. Which I’m protesting.
Carin – I wouldn’t classify The Who as English blues.
“New Music” was what they originally called the post-punk that was being played on college and alternative radio stations.
I was just mentioning the “biggies” i never got into.
Plus, hurricane predictions are so 1997!
That other post is waaaaay too corporate for my liking.

Who cares about Hurricanes?
amiright?
We can WIN this guy, if we just stick together.
guys.
I have an affinity for earworms that crosses all genres. Especially the songs that get MCPO to say FFS.
Oso, isn’t this poat MUCH better than Wisers?
Earworm just for Oso.
No one else clicky:

Plus, everyone likes the music I post!!
Excellent poat, Carin.
Greetings, people with terrible taste in music.
I should have put a hot chick in it for Cyn.
Wiser sorta cheated.
And I should have put some retro-mimimalist post-punk band in there for sean.
I need to learn how to play to my audience.
Who doesn’t like Magic Dick on the lickety stick?!

Glad to hear mom’s through and recovering.
From that “other” poat.
It’s not a “Theme” wiser, it’s an obsession.
I’d love to continuing sparring with Wiser between poats, but I’ve got to put on my barefoot shoes and work out.
Yeah, I need to get off my ass too. Thanks for the poat, Carin.

That may have been the gayest sentence ever composed in the history of everything.
That would be fun. Gayest sentence ever.
Captain Thrust polished the knobs on the gaping doorway.
Brucie McQueen popped another amyl nitrate, took a sip of his chablis, and ran a thin finger through his immaculately-trimmed blond mustache before returning to the delicate stitching on his lover Francois’s patch of the AIDS quilt.
I was gonna comment on music, but changed my mind.
