...can you still be a true prog music fan....

...if you still like listening to 80's bands like 'poison'?...

Can you still like beef jerky, if you are a ballet dancer?

... I think you can.

 

[OrbWeaver]

Funny you say that...I enjoyed beef jerky when I was taking ballet classes!


TDF: That's like asking if you can still be considered a metal fan if you like showtunes, or any genre of music outside of metal. Sure you can! You don't have to be a one-note wonder when it comes to music you like.

Sure you can!

If you can listen to Jimmy Buffet, you can still be a metal fan. Just ask Glenn!

Seriously - I still listen to a limited amount of non-metal music, but as time goes on I listen to much less of it. I was a big fan of U2 back in the 80s and I occasionally listen to them even now. That's now the exception and not the rule.

 

[ProgMetalRules]

80's bands yes. Poison no.

Every day, I thank my lucky stars* I'm not a one-genre music fan, or a 'meathead metalhead.'
Life with just one flavor of ice-cream would be pretty fucking boring.

* I also thank my lucky stars I'm not superstitious

 

[Angrafan]

you sure can... you just can't be a fan of good music and poison at the same time.. that's pretty hard to do

 

[Taliwakker]

No...infact you can only be considered a true prog music fan if you go to

then decide to buy the cd.

Everyone else is a poseur

I know over the last ten years, my truly prog listening has gone way down, and my metal listening gone way up. I still spin my favorites, but don't even go looking for new prog anymore. Now if you're really talking prog-metal, then well, nevermind.

I can't wait for PPX. Come on already!

 

[SharkBlack]

80's bands yes. Poison no.

Ding Ding Ding Ding - You win an award for the most correct answer...

I am well rounded... I eat too many cheeseburgers..

I have one of the widest variety in my music collection of anybody I know, but Poison was pretty bad..IMHO...

 

[Bryan316]

Shit, dude. I listen to the Brian Setzer Orchestra all the damn time. How detached from METAL can one get?













Don't make me bust out the Yanni....

Mix that with metal and you'll get Diablo Swing Orchestra!

 

[OrbWeaver]

Don't make me bust out the Yanni....

Oooh, I danced to "Nightengale" for a ballet recital one year. <3 Yanni!

 

[JenniferLynn]

I don't see why not.. I've got some hair bands on my iPod...

And I'm about to put on the new Carbonleaf and Matt Nathenson's new one... neither metal, but both VERY good

[Jibrille]

I've been listening to pretty much only pop music for the last month (except for some After Forever). I guess that means I'm out of the club.


Now playing: Lily Allen - The Fear
