1. Are there any genres that you have tried to get into on various occasions, but just can't for whatever reason?

Tried stuff like Weather Report that gets labeled "jazz fusion", but found most of it either inaccessible or simply boring.

2. You decide to go see a live show, and you have the option of seeing one of two bands that are playing that night. The first is exceptionally skilled at playing their instruments, but have very little showmanship and style. The second group is not as skilled as the first, but is known for crazy and visually exciting performances. Which would you go see?

Easy. Band 2. If I want a note perfect performance I'm sure Band 1 will have a CD I can buy.

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

Before what?

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

I don't watch many music videos.

Good one: the Moody Blues - Your Wildest Dreams. Added a degree of interest to a very ordinary song.
Bad: Split Enz - I walk Away. Videos that literally interpret the lyrics just make me wince. "The sun always sets" and the video shows the sun going down. Spare me please.

5. Is there anything that you wished more MB members were into?

Posting in musical threads! Mostly I ask a question or respond to someone else's post, and check back a day later and mine is still the last post.

6. One day, you happen to run into a clone of yourself. After the two of you cautiously circle each other, you put aside your fears and come to the realization that a choice must be made... Fight or fuck?

That's easy. I'm a pacifist.

Not really. I'm pretty open-minded and have found at least a few decent artists in every genre I've explored, mind you there's a ton of genres I haven't tried.

2. You decide to go see a live show, and you have the option of seeing one of two bands that are playing that night.

Definitely number two, a concert is all about the experience, not necessarily just the music.

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

Not that I can remember.

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

I don't watch very many music videos, but I remember I used to be really into the video for Dani California and I'm not exactly sure why.

5. Is there anything that you wished more MB members were into?

I was going to say wrestling, but then the thread got bumped so I think we're good now.

6. One day, you happen to run into a clone of yourself. After the two of you cautiously circle each other, you put aside your fears and come to the realization that a choice must be made... Fight or fuck?

I've only been in one fight in my life and I got the **** kicked out of me, so I guess I'm going with fuck.

No, not really. I guess I haven't dabbled in enough different genres to have that kind of issue.

The second one sounds more fun.

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

Cue lewd responses

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

I don't watch a lot of them. I don't know. I guess "Blow Your Speakers" by Manowar can fill both spots.

5. Is there anything that you wished more MB members were into?


Karl Marx

6. One day, you happen to run into a clone of yourself. After the two of you cautiously circle each other, you put aside your fears and come to the realization that a choice must be made... Fight or fuck?

Both.

Bassline when pretty much everyone was listening to it. Couldn't get away from it. Anyway I tried but I hated it, Speed Garage and all of the genres in between.

2. You decide to go see a live show, and you have the option of seeing one of two bands that are playing that night.

Second option easily.

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

No but I nearly choked on a cherry drop playing FIFA.

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

I used to love Coffee & TV as a kid, & Rock DJ when the full unbanned version was shown after 10pm.

5. Is there anything that you wished more MB members were into?

Grime hardly gets discussed so that.

6. One day, you happen to run into a clone of yourself. After the two of you cautiously circle each other, you put aside your fears and come to the realization that a choice must be made... Fight or fuck?

Would give myself a right good bumming, real talk.

Modern R&B is just not for me.

The second one, duh.

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

Not unless you count the time when I was literally choking and almost died.

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

Favourite


I don't keep updated enough to have a least favourite. Maybe this dull tripe? The terrible music doesn't help its case.


5. Is there anything that you wished more MB members were into?

Not too many people here are into modern classical it seems.

6. One day, you happen to run into a clone of yourself. After the two of you cautiously circle each other, you put aside your fears and come to the realization that a choice must be made... Fight or fuck?

I'd do a combo of the two and be a right sadist with him.

Bluegrass....not that i dislike it necessarily.....i just have zero interest in looking into it

2. You decide to go see a live show, and you have the option of seeing one of two bands that are playing that night.

there are so many variables for me with this questions....i do go see bands live because i want to experience the music in person and honestly care very little about the "show" itself.....i'd say 95% of the bands i have seen live simple perform with little to no "effects".....it also comes down to whether or not i've seen them before....

fuck it....i'll go with band 1....i'm there to experience the music live with like minded people....not simply for theatrics

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

of course

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

i really don't have either

5. Is there anything that you wished more MB members were into?

Paul Bowles and Louis-Ferdinand Céline

6. One day, you happen to run into a clone of yourself. After the two of you cautiously circle each other, you put aside your fears and come to the realization that a choice must be made... Fight or ****?

There can be only one

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

Yea, in the 1st gig of my first band. after i saw the audience didn't care i lost my stage fright.

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

6. One day, you happen to run into a clone of yourself. After the two of you cautiously circle each other, you put aside your fears and come to the realization that a choice must be made... Fight or f*ck?

Metal. I don't dislike it, just haven't found the right thing.

Hard pick for me but I usually can't see anything at shows anyway so I guess band one. I like to feel impressed by skill rather than setting.

3. Have you ever choked during an important moment before?

No I'm a perfect angel.

4. Do you have a favorite and least favorite music video?

This is the only music video I care about
