So do people talk about music on this forum too or what?

I see, so I've been lookin in the wrong places for the most part then. And most of my favorite bands are definitely pretty obscure. I skimmed the journal sec, def will check out after I veg out on the new Walking Dead ep.

Well you can start threads on them or use the search to see if there are threads about them already but don't expect loads of people to go flocking into your thread.

I just mean don't be disappointed if it doesn't get much response.

I can attest to this. I'll keep posting 'em anyway.

Don't look in the lounge for music discussion, look in the music threads for music discussion. It's that simple.

What's up with that?

I'm a regular poster and I talk about music.

Same. I dont know what all you are complaining about. I am glad that alot of people post only in the lounge because those are the people i would probably skip over their music posts anyways.

I still find bands and reviews and tons of music talk on here, do you guys actually look through ALL New Posts or just skim the front page and subscribed threads briefly...?

Agree with DJ and Trollheart. The folk/country/world subforum is pretty quiet but it doesn't keep me from posting in there, neither am I discouraged by the lack of response or feedback. I figure even if only one person discovers a tune, or even better, an artist they like, then it was worthwhile. I know I've discovered a few artists I really like since coming here, and it's a great gift to be introduced to music you like.

But I think there's a lot of great music discussion on these boards. It's not all in depth discussion, granted, but it is there if you invest the time exploring the archives.

It would be nice if more people here were as into classical as I am. There are a couple, but the lack of discussion sometimes discourages me from making new threads. What is the point of introducing a topic that I know will garner little to no responses? I feel like I should try harder but maybe I am better off leaving those discussions to the Talk Classical forums.

I always see the same composers popping up in the Top 5 Composers thread. If people are willing to learn about composers beyond Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, Handel, or Brahms let me know.

This classical thread is a riot:

...and I see no Schubert thread. I shall make one.

at some point
