stop me if you think that you've heard this one before

[xiane]

So after watching people battle it out over music all week, I've decided to enact a New and Official Labeling System for all music. You may henceforth stop using tired labels such as
"goth"
"hipster"
"post-punk"
"klezmer"
and implement my simple system for sorting all bands and tunes.

The labels?

Music That I Think Sucks
and
Music That I Think Rocks.

See how simple that is? Stops all arguing, gives all responsibility to me for determining what you should and should not be listening to at any given time.



I see a problem, I solve a problem. You may all thank me by purchasing large amounts of Music That I Think Rocks.

*curtsey*

edit - forgot to mention that you can thank 155metrocard for getting ol' Morrissey stuck in my head all day. ;)

Medieval noisy instruments ahoy!

Unless it's a hurdy-gurdy. I rather like the hurdy-gurdy as part of an ensemble, but if it's a solo instrument, it makes my ears bleed.

My community theater did a production of The Red Shoes (in which the villain(tm) dances the girl away with his hurdy-gurdy music, and after a few performances, everyone in the cast and crew was like, Dear God, make that frickin' hurdy-gurdy STOP!!!!!!

*giggle*

Best use of hudry gurdy I ever saw was the 1990 tour of Dead Can Dance. Brendan played hurdy gurdy on "Severance" and it was awesome.

I was really miffed that I missed Corvus Corax at the PA Renfest last year. More noisy medieval instruments than you can shake a stick at! Mmmmmmm.
