new member... Wow, I like this place!
There's nothing like feeling at home, y'know? I lurked for months all over, and this is a prime spot right here. Lots of creative people, too, which should really surprise ... er, no one, actually. Maybe a soccer dad DARE volunteer or some brainwashed cop-show fan. MJ and the Muses know each other well.
Anyway, I stuck four tracks (my entire "Vertical 4-Song Sampler" CD) in the Audio section. As a working pro I respect ANY and ALL styles of music, and can easily admire and respect Zakk Wylde or Joe ("Whoa") Satriani or blues or rock or roots or world â?? if it's sincere, played honest and right by someone who has put in time on their instrument(s) and can really bring it, then I can dig it A LOT even if it's not something I listen to often. This is even more pronounced an effect at live shows.
I love good musicianship, period. Delta blues or Indian raga, jazz or Beatles or E Street Band, there's something out there for everyone. I don't knock anything if it works for you, and especially if it speaks TO you! Peace & harmony, folks...

I totally agree. Music is music and there's very little "bad" about it. There are different tastes, different eras, and during those different eras, the young people are always going to think that theirs is the best. Which is what I thought when I was young and I'm sure what my mother thought when she was young and so on, but, as you mature, you realize that, not only were YOU right, so was your mother, and your grandmother. People, IMHO, need to open their minds and explore other genres (and generations) and I can guarantee that they will find something that will leave them with their jaws on the floor!
