Expressing your opinion is one thing. Yet calling someone else music a "a pile of crap" or a "big steaming variety of horse dung" is another. I dont know what your interpretation of an opinion is, DopeSickGirl, or Jude or whatever u call urself, but im sure what PF said is surely nothing but making fun.
Yes, i do express my opinion on FOTD's but i dont take it to the extreme where i say their makeup was a pile of crap.
Hmm. Maybe something to think about?

Oh and PF, "making a little fun"? I'd hate to see how would you react if someone really pissed you off. And yeah i hear you, Alot of the real talent is shadowed by "horrible pop", but, making fun of peoples taste of music on a makeup board sure as hell isnt gonna change that.

"different opinions are what drives great debates and you can learn from them."

That sure is what we've got here!

I think everyone has a right to their opinion... I used to ridicule people who listened to country music, until my baby sisters classmate landed a record deal and I of course thinking how many times will I ever have known anyone to be a "celebrity recording artist" Bought her CD Loved it - heard her sing since she was seven--- she ended up as a launch.com recording artist of the month, walmart artist, hot new artist- her name is Katrina Elam, by the way and she has a gorgeous voice. Then she ended up being Keith Urban's opening act (I know most of y'all have heard of Keith Urban by now-"You'll Think of Me") for his Alive in 05 tour and Be Here tours. Let me tell you before we went to see KU we were listening to Linkin Park to get revved up for the concert *my first country show* and even before hand I was cracking jokes about the c/w crowd. We also had meet and greets to see Katrina at this show which was cool. But Keith Urban blew me away live. So now I've discovered that Good music had better be good on the radio and live no matter what Genre. I do like Rap live too I was lucky enough to see Run DMC in 01, and Sting, Keith Urban, No Doubt are the three artists that have impressed me the most in a live show and I've been to a my fair share of concerts for living in the sticks.

I love music its my other obsession. Anymore, I judge artists by how well the perform live..... I have the itch to go to a good show - I haven't been to a concert since July ::::sob:::: I really wanted to go see Green Day last august but I was too poor.

Back to the subject at hand...

I love old punk (Black Flag, Ramones, Circle Jerks, Suicidal tendencies, Husker Du, Iggy Pop, X, Exene Cervenka, Dead Kennedys, the Clash).

My tastes are basically all over the place, but I like really noise. Especially old 80's rock noise (ACDC, Dio, Rush, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Ted Nugent, Guns n Roses). I am really dating myself here - yes kiddos, I am old!

As far as newer stuff, I have given up on mainstream radio and MTV, and don't have acess to much new stuff. In the last decade, I have discovered that I really like Rollins Band, Godsmack, Audioslave, Slipknot, Sevendust, System of a Down, Dropkick Murphys (you can see the continuation of the noisy theme here!)

I happen to like death metal too - so much for the comment about fans being "lame-oid" guys (I have a Masters degree and am a female in my 30's. Labels never are one size fits all, and you sell a lot of people short by applying them! I'm not being pissy - just letting you know what I have learned in my more than 3 decades of life experiences!)

I do diversify my musical tastes more than shown here. However, I basically (almost without exception) do not like anything that makes the top 40's. I would be a lousy record producer, I guess!

Well, I still think it was rude...and it wasnt even about me, but whatever!

Heh heh, the death metal guys that I went out with only became losers...when they went out with me.

You do know I was just attempting to join in on the fun, I wouldn't actually say what I said and actually mean it.

The only thing more fun than taking the piss out of others is taking the piss out of oneself. For real.

OMG, I laughed so hard at that I wasted my precious coffee. I am so saving that line. You're a riot! I've dated a few of those guys myself in the past!

You could end up going bald, but grow the remaining hair? My death metal people tell me of such things. Raunchy.

I may or may not have mentioned I like to listen to Renaissance music but much prefer to play it. In my youth, I was completely obsessed with classical music till I screwed up my arms at uni.
