3. ladytron, the gossip, rev. horton heat

[MissouriTeacher]

4. Maybe it's just me,

but it seems like there's one of these threads started every 5 minutes or so. :D

[aquaman]

5. That's the whole point...

The list is always changing. It's fun, because music is great.

[binaryline]

[phishhead]

6. Favorite bands at the moment...uhhhh..

Thats too hard.. so I'll just list some stuff thats in my cd player right now:

NOFX
Rage Against the Machine
The Slip
Pennywise
Grateful Dead

Those are the 5 cds in my changer right now.

[Occulus]

7. The BLUE DEVILS!

Heh. Drum corps. They won DCI this year.

It's a great activity for musicians. Think of a marching band without anything from the woodwind section, and all the horns tuned in the same key, plus a nice tight drumline and a kick-ass colorguard.

10. I like your acknowledgment of the ephemeral nature of taste.

It makes it easier to answer your poll truthfully.

Les Paul and Mary Ford
The Lyres
The Hangmen (from LA)
Parliament/Funkadelic

[VelmaD]

13. Gotta love Tool

Regardless of what type of music one gets into, Tool is a very talented band.

[tarkus]

17. I owe Tool

Tool opened the door to a vast amount of music that I had not heard of before them. Without Tool, I never would have found progressive rock, and that is almost all I listen to.

As for favorite bands, I have been listening to a lot of Jethro Tull from their "pseudo- folk" period in the late 1970's. I am actually listening to Metallica right now, which I haven't done in a while.

Do Peter Gabriel and Roger Waters count as "bands" or do I have to start a "Who is your favorite Genius?" thread? Oh I'm clever.

[leftofthedial]

14. i'm so into the songwriter thing right now that "bands" is a little

beside the point for me, but:

The Iguanas
dada
Nickel Creek
The Bill Evans Trio (with Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian)
The Beat Farmers
The Derailers
El Rayo X
Del Amitri
The Goners (John Hiatt's band with Sonny Landreth--Damn!)
The Doors (how far ahead of his time was Ray Manzarek?)
Jackson Browne's latest band (I don't think they have a name)
Los Lobos
Madredeus
Clapton with Delaney Bonnie and Friends

are in the current playlist and many of them have been in there for a l-o-n-g time.

There are a few things I LOVE about getting old.

[phishhead]

15. Nickel Creek is fantastic.

They put on a really great show.
