My advise is to get straight to the "What Song Are You Listening To" thread, and listen to everything useless posted. Tried. There is stuff I like listening to, but to me, nothing else compares.. It sort of, feels empty. Although I am fully aware that my musical tastes are not the height of musical skill, it just sits right with me. I'd love to love all different types of music, but I just can't - I've tried. Edited May 4, 2016 by lapal_fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 I miss Useless. I just hope he didn't take 'bantzz' as criticism. There is no such thing as good taste and bad taste, music is music and all that. (obviously mid atlantic rock and anything with high sales volumes is total shit, but yeah, you know) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a few mates like that. I've got one mate who's record collection consists of music released between 1993 & 1998. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I can be pretty dismissive, reggae, I do not have time in my life for that, modern indie, but I think even the most broadminded can be dismissive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 I've got broader taste now than I've ever had. I still struggle massively with what I would clumsily describe as 'rock' and all it's variations from Bon Jovi to U2 to Kiss, Supertramp, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne etc.. That said, my last few gigs and my next few up coming could loosely be described as punk, folk and a sort of country n western techno.... Coming up in December, my first ever gig at the Hammersmiff Empire. Alabama 3 (again!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music is music was supposed to be the thrusting message. There's nothing better than a Blondie / Beatles / Jam mixtape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were great, new singer sounds exactly like Jon Anderson. Shame about Chris Squire though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
