At what point did you fall in love with Music?


Doc Holiday

Recommended Posts

I'm sitting here on my day off cleaning the house while listening to "Another day, Another Time: the music behind inside Llewyn Davis"  which a showtime music doc about a concert with various artists that played for the sound track of the movie, really great stuff if you enjoy folk/bluegrass music, which is by far my favorite genre of music.

 

My love for Folk and Bluegrass music is something that came very late to me, In middle school to high school I listened to what ever was popular, but never really enjoyed music, and honestly for a while I never thought there was any genre of music I truly enjoyed to listen too. and about 5 years ago while traveling with some friends of mine in Australia one of them was big into Bluegrass and I started to listen to his stuff and have been hooked ever since.

 

Oddly enough the very first bluegrass song I ever enjoyed was a cover of Metallica's Unforgiven by Iron Horse

 

 

so what's your favorite genre and when did you fall in love with it?

Hardcore/metal/metalcore.

I'm a little embarrassed to say this but I fell in love with it after an older student drove me home from school and was playing Hawthorne Heights. I now despise that band but I went out to Wal-Mart the next day and bought their cd. I also bought Killswitch Engage's cd at the time because it sounded "hardcore." I've been in love with the genre ever since.

Doesn't mean I don't appreciate other types of music.  The only genre I'm not a big fan of is rap or country.  I listen to it because those are pretty much the only genres my friends listen to, but it's not preferred.  Basically, if a band/song has good instrumentals/musicians, I'll listen to it.

When my dad gave me his record collection and his radio.

It was an awesome variety of music that included Michael Jackson, Donna Summer, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Boston, Foreigner, Queen, and Dylan.

Between that and my mom always playing Johnny Mathis and Anita Baker around the house I came to love many styles of music. If it has a real drummer and good vocals I'm happy.

I really have a soft spot for beautiful women with great voices and heavy music with a good groove and vocal harmonies

Honestly? probably when I did mushrooms or LSD for the first time, and listening to the Dead. The Dead opened up so much other music for me, before that it was metal and hard rock. Not so much into metal now, hurts my head. But I can listen to almost anything now, and I blame the Dead and psychedelics.

My parents would play us some great albums growing up.  Stuff ranging from The Who, INXS, Talking Heads, The B-52s, The Beatles, Velvet Underground and plenty more.  So when I got a little older I really appreciated everything they played (looking back).

 

It was early high school that I got into the classical/baroque/romanticism eras that showed me what truly amazing music was.

Yeah I can't stand country, the current embodiment of country is nothing but an ad-executives bastardization of a music genre, hasn't been good in a while.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
