I mentioned John Cage in my music appreciation class. My instructor called him an idiot who decided to sit at a piano for 5 minutes (Haha, nope) and call it a composition. I do think that Cage is sort of the Andy Warhol of the music world, but not as nearly pretentious. Warhol was a dick, Cage was a kind soul who took interest in any sound. He had a beautiful relationship with music and sounds, it really does put a tear in my eye.
