I'm Henry could you hear me recording this? If not ask the person who recorded it if he heard me. Inside joke.
In defense of my homophobia, which I think irks you more than it should, how do I describe it? My homophobia is a particular kind; it is not a fear or concern with someone's sexuality...
I think this has been one of the best posts I've seen you write since I've been here with humility, love and respect. I always dig your writing style and tone but this post is showing us another side of you. All sides are good but that is another good side.
Thank you for the kind reply, sir, but no I shouldn't be a fraudster on her and pretend I'm a musician (I'm just a hobbyist playing Jams and Open Mic Nights) but, but, but you are definitely a musician. This may not make sense to you now, but that is a huge honor on Earth to be a musician. Let...
Thank you, sir, you are correct. Europe has quite a bit going on when it comes to music; it doesn't surprise me they have a vibrant real Metal Scene. Reading the Guitar Magazines I'm aware of a little bit of it but just the major bands.
If you are European, maybe it serves us Americans right...
Oh, and, sir, I did not respond to your taste in Classical. I appreciate Classical but it is not my cup of tea. The reason? I imagine if I lived in the time of Classical I wouldn't be in a Conservatory, I would be in a Tavern with the Bards. Here is a painting by Breugel showing life in the...
I'm getting intel from my sources, Chris Cornell was murdered by Shadow Government. Just so that you have some info on Shadow Government. It started with George W. Bush and the War on Terror and apparently it is now back that the GOP is back in Power. Obama has nothing to do with this.
The...
You're a good man, sir, but here you are getting theoretical. What I mean by that is there are venues for musicians to get their songs out there, I know this as a hobbyist. Here is one such venue and it sounds cool but it is not:

This site seems perfect...
When I hear Metal now I hear I IV V (a very, very simple chord progression) with no solo, or meaningless solo, no meaningful lyrics, glosses of Red States, and people who are out of shape wearing glasses. Not my scene. But post it and I will dissect it for you. (NOTE: I play Guitar and all the...
Well, share it, this is the thread to share it. Let me edit my OP to ask people to share it. It doesn't do the artist any good to keep it hidden to yourself. I hope I'm wrong.
Hey, that's not a bad post. I actually dig Frank Sinatra, Michael Buble, Tony Bennet and people like that who grew with their audience. What I'm pointing out is you will never see that again. Elvis was loved by all ages and so was Johnny Cash but you will never see that music again.
It's...
OK, thank you, sir, this is good perspective. I especially love "They were kids going off to war facing adult problems."
OK, perfect, my contention as a hobbyist who knows musicians addressing the time there is no way to get it in a record company. Once Reagan identified a youth culture...
Why is it a troll thread and don't you think it's funny no one ever goes to Music but all my stalkers run to my thread here which I'm writing to hope to connect with other musicians and music lovers?
Good, point...but people in their thirties felt that way and it was written by people in their thirties at times or nearing it. What does Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds mean? Look it up? What does Wild Horses Mean, coming from a Father. What does Eric Clapton's Tears from Heaven mean? All...
Fine, I edited the question to remove the gay dynamic because people like you will never get it. So, it's changed. Just know Gay people aren't straight people with a different sexual preference, if it was that simple I wouldn't care.
That's a good point...but Rock, R&B, Soul, Jazz, Funk unlike modern versions of it was not for kids. Look at the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Eagles, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bobby Blue Bland, Bill Withers, Santana...if you read their lyrics this was not kids music.
Sure, kids looking up to their...
Well, Chris Cornell was a musical genius and like all musical geniuses he was murdered by the government. They always make it look like suicide or drug overdose. As the government knew he was clean, they just hung him.
I'm an amateur musician and as someone who knows quite a few musicians you...
Well, it is a boring Sunday Afternoon and I decided to start a discussion on Music because Music is dear to me.
The Topic? Remember when Music was for Adults?
I can relate to pretty much all recorded music before around the time of 2005. I can relate to the Swing of the Roaring Twenties and...
It's not just Conservatives who oppose Wikipedia, I as a Liberal amateur writer, reader and musician have opposed Wikipedia. I've found many, many, many inconsistencies on Wikipedia that somehow become accepted mainstream thought by atheist geeks. (geeks killed rock)
For example, look up...
Now, just going further being a Liberal Catholic who only knows Liberal Catholics in Southern California, the topic of Hell was never something I was concerned with at any age. In fact, the Sacred Heart Sisters raised me with the belief that Hell was really a state of mind, the absence of a...
