Ah, I am so out there with music. It is so dependent on my mood, to the point that I will really like something one day, and dislike it, severely, the next. And a month later I will like it again. One day I will be whining about how much I can't stand modern country and the next I will be saying "Hey, I want to listen to some country." I think it is my constant effort to accept everything I hear, but only some genres at a time. There are some that I like every day, so I suppose those count as my "core" taste in music.

That probably didn't reveal anything about my taste in music.

Since is was brought up....They Might Be Giants is coming here on tour! Giving me a well earned break from Alt. Country.

I would hestitate to introduce someone to them. Especially if you know beforehand that it won't be appreciated. Piker.
;)

My girlfriend is an Opera fiend. I pretend that I don't care much for it... but I am secretly coming to enjoy it greatly....

The shame, the shame! :redface:

I hate the kids songs, they hate my songs and we have a beautiful relationship.

I'm just so used to people having bad taste in music, that I overlook it. Been married to my wife for 16 years, and her music tastes still haven't improved, but everything else has.:3eye: Far more important to me is what books they like, such as The World According to Garp, or their movie choices, like the greatest movie ever made, The Kentucky Fried Movie.

I just bought KFM. I was thinking of watching it tonight (assuming I quit messing around on the Cellar, leave work, and get home before midnight).

But that doesn't mean we could be friends.

I guess getting along with someone who has your taste in music could just be that you'll have something light and (pretty much) meaningless to talk to, something you can probably resort to talking about again if conversation finds itself stalling. It's always easier (and arguably less meaningful) to talk to someone when you dont have to grasp around for subjects

Anybody around here listen to any rockabilly?

Used to be a minor fan of Reverend Horton Heat, back in the day, but haven't listened in a long time.

Just saw the good Reverend last Saturday night in St. Louis...I believe this was time #12. He beat ass as usual.

I play in a six piece band. Five of us went to high school together...33 years ago.

I'd say music can and does help keep friends together.

My friends and I 'swap' music a lot. We have very eclectic tastes between us, but most of us like most of the stuff each of the other likes.

I can't present any evidence about music, but you know how netflix lets you know how similar to you other members are? The closest that I have ever seen to me is a 60% match. My musical tastes are similarly varied. Speaking of which ... I don't have anywhere near enough netflix friends. Anyone want to be netflix voyeurs to each other?

If April and I finally join, we're in.

SHEESH. say that 5 times fast.

If someone picks their "friends" based on similar tastes, judges those who like things they don't, they are a moron and deserve what they get.
I love the fact that those in my peer group enjoy and expose me to things I have previously misunderstood and if they like something I do not, I really don't see how that is an issue with our friendship?
These are the same people who think they know something about someone because of what sport team they like.
