no matter who the president, Nirvana is still the best music ever recorded by any human ever in the entire exerpiced existance (yay for assonance) of all time.


end hijack....you can start the lowjack again

RU, thats a joke right?

But all the albums sound the same...by which I mean, every song on an album sounds the same, so all the different albums sound different but all the songs...you know what I mean.
Nine Inch Nails...now there's a band that knows the meaning of life!

You guys better be doing this just to make me lose faith in Americans. NIN and Nirvana are both pathetic examples of music.

Um, no, after I read the first sentence and saw he was using the word racist, I clicked "quote" and wrote my response. Get it?

If you say so. Wasn't what I was saying in the least, but hey, if you want to extract THAT from all that I did say, then that's on you.

You are definitely not one to call others idiots. But if that's all you can come up with, I understand...feel bad for you, but I know there are many who unfortunatley are without useful intellectual skills and for those like you who can't help it, it'll be ok.

I hope this talk of NIN and Nirvana is some kind of sick joke.

You take that back, NIN is awesome! What music do you prefer Shiner?

I like a lot of stuff, mostly stuff in the vein of classic rock, americana, folk, texas country....Zeppelin, Dylan, Van Morrison, Seeger, Paul Simon, Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Jerry Jeff Walker, Robert Earl Keen, The Band, Joe Cocker, CCR, Buffett, early springsteen, older elton john, Waylon, The Kinks, and then some more recent stuff....Hayes Carll, Reckless Kelly, Cast Iron Filter, Chris Knight, Charlie Robison, Old Crow Medicine Show, and although I'll probably get made fun of, I like some Nickel Creek. Theres a ton more, but thats stuff on my study playlist of late

Hell yeah NIN...give me a minute...|\| | |/| there ya go

shinerbock, do you also like the Doors? Zep is good, you have Cash and Kinks , and I would have never guessed that from your above posts.

What do you think about the current state or rock music (should I just start another thread?)

I like the Doors ok, but they're pretty hit and miss as far as my preference. I like some stuff, and I hate others. I have similar feelings about Pink Floyd. I like creativity, but sometimes the complexity is too much. Most of the stuff I like is fairly simplistic, but the musical talent is pretty good. Hence, I don't like stuff like NIN, Tool, etc, etc.

I think the current state of music is pathetic, to be honest. This may sound banal, but the only thing I'm into in mainstream rock is The Killers. I'm also a bit of a Jack White fan. Most of what I listen to these days that is current is either Texas country, some variation of bluegrass (OCMS, Nickel Creek, Yonder Mountain String Band), and some jam thrown in. I really hate the "I'm gonna kill myself, I'm not a conformist" type stuff, which eliminates about 75% of popular rock. I dunno, I mean there is talent out there, but my playlist generally reads like a Cameron Crow soundtrack.

Now that is some good music. But I always have to add Crosby, Stills, Nash (and sometimes Young) into the mix.

Two years ago Colin Powell was the next great black hope.

Now Obama is thrown up.

His light will dim shortly.

So... do you like Colin Powell or not? Because he was republican...

I don't like Obama because of his skin color I like him because of his character. He's just as black as he is white. If anything he is the next great political hope. He appeals to you with reason, not with emotion. If you disagree with him fine, but he's not trying to scare you. "VOTE ME OR THE TERRORISTS WILL KILL YOU" is stupid.
