It's a curse.
By all means, you haven't been the slightest bit annoying imo. From all I've seen on forums, there really only ever are opinions. Some people keep their opinions personal, others spin them in a way that's more 'universal', and still others have a nice blend of both! lol.

But I can definitely see where you're coming from. As an vintage-oriented amateur visual artist (whoa, did that make me sound like a hipster? lol), having a tangible personal museum of nostalgia is like having art hanging on your wall. Some music consumers lean toward form, others toward function. Some lean toward preserving and appreciating the past, others are all about the glorious realm of the future. The same is true about musicians. I think there is room for appreciation on both ends of the spectrum.

Oh, I should also add- what's wrong with being sentimental?? You'd be good company to the other sentimentalists here on MB, myself included.
