I listen to quite a bit of pop music, that is also more passionate and isn't as disposable. Come by my thread

I really don't like our pop forum here. I've said it a couple times, but that forum is predominantly threads involving easy targets for people to come in and raise their post counts. Going into a thread and insulting Avril Lavigne...why bother? I made a Blondie thread in there a while back, I don't think it turned out so well b/c the majority was preoccupied bashing some hollywood idol. Honestly, if I were to post about artists like Katie Melua or Sarah McLaughlin, etc., I'd just come to the general music forum, it'd get more of the proper attention.
