What music are you listening to?

[accelafine]

Apparently this is 'crap' that the musical genius promethean is way above listenting to.

"No depth of knowledge whatsoever."

You're saying i should read The Easy Guide To Basic Guitar Chords and Gate Building, then? I don't even know who has that book.

Interesting that it makes you so angry Why would Bach make a pretentious fuck angry and defensive? I can't imagine.

And comrades may judge for themselves if veggy's criticism of my guitar playing is fair and justified. Comrades will note that I'm registered as an amatuer guitarist and that without any hint of hubris do I claim only the most modest of talent.

Good for you. Well done. Arrogance is always a good path to learning. But what the fuck is that horrible noise?

[promethean75]

That 'horrible noise', aside from the guitar playing, could be what Todd R. calls sounds of the studio, which can include the products of low budget recording conditions in some cases.

[accelafine]

Umm no. I could hear the guitar playing loud and clear. And this started with you taking offence from the outset at me daring to mention that your link contained Bach. Why would that make you so angry? Is this the ubiquitious American 'anti-intellectualism' that we keep hearing about? Does your ignorance frustrate you, so you lash out? You misjudge me. I love music. All kinds. Music lovers invariably love Bach. What's not to love?

"Why would Bach make a pretentious fuck angry and defensive?"

See there? Where did that come from? I think you're having an episode.

Not only do i fully recognize what is great about these composers, but i recognize that such music is also great for reasons i can't recognize on account of my musical illiteracy. I therefore don't pretend to like something more than in a quick passing and recognizing that it is naturally beyond me.

I don't dislike Bach in any way. All i can honestly say is that i would become bored of it rather quickly and lose interest. If this is due to me being dumb, so be it. Life is like a box of chocolates, veg.

Why are my links so different from everyone else's? I made no judgement from the outset. You just assumed that I mentioned Bach out of some sense of 'superiority'. Bach is just normal, everyday listening to me. Always has been. Would you rather I posted links to Taylor Swift? Is that more to your liking?
And what's this 'veg' thing? Fuck you.
If Bach 'bores' you then what the fuck effect do you think YOUR playing has on others???

[promethean75]

But Bach is everywhere anyway because he was the guy to write everything down and the first to try it. You can't even finger a scale, appeggio or not, without playing something Bach or Mozart or Beetz wrote somewhere because he was like 'yo that sounds cool, that scale right there. Let me document it'.

[accelafine]

Right. Ok. That must be it.

[promethean75]

"I made no judgement from the outset.'

Thie is absolutely and irrefutably true. I started this whole thing by viciously assaulting you, alleging that you are a classical music tourist who doesn't reeeely like classical music but watches Feyman videos that go good with Mozart.

[accelafine]

Obviously drunk or high. Did mommy reject your sexual advances today?

[promethean75]

No way, haus. Incest of that sort is out of the question for me, so I'm less Shakespeare and more old fashioned political tragedy material. That's my only intrigue, in other words. Nothing freaky about my tragedy.

One of my aunts was superhot as i was growing up, though.
