I think there’s a lot of people here pretty much addicted to music and some of us like to find out about new bands/artist or talk about the old ones. It would be for threads like the ones in Random Chat (Emeli sande, Lana del rey, Katy B) or topics about music genres, labels (ex. Motown, which I think it would be a hit :P).
It would be easier not to fill up the Random chat with millions of music threads, but still we can’t talk about them all in one thread. So, anyone with me?
Seems like a plan to me - there’s certainly a lot of music talk that probably gets lost in the other off-topic threads. I’m just about to eat but I’l get on it in a bit
I think its a great idea Iuli I’ve come across tons of artists new to me (or, that I didn’t previously appreciate their music, ha) thanks to the forum, but yeah some things get lost..
I think separate artists by race and genre and other proclivities. Black polka bands, white punks, (13) different sub-genre’s of metal, hipity hop and rap if we must, flash in the pans (Lana Chevrolet), pop artist’s (under 12-over12), black country legends (Charlie Pride..whoops, that’s it), white singers doing black music-black singers doing white music, accordion soloists, rock music '63-'71, not so good rock music '72-present, mushy music, jazzers pre-WW2 / post WW2, reggae, pre Bob, post Bob, (Samba, Rumba, Waltz) Muzak, (band, not otherwise specified)
folk singers, fusion artists, big band, pot smoking black jazz musicians, bands with 3 black backing vocalists, bands with one lead guitarist, bands with more than one lead guitarists, one hit wonders, quartets, bands that only wear black, bands that write their own material, bands that can’t write…literally, progressive rock bands, bluegrass bands, weird pairings…Robert Plant and Allison Krause, wedding bands, Cajun music, praise / worship bands(scary), grunge bands-grunge wannabes, OK, that’s enough.
Cut the crap Phil, I’m serious about this, no one forces you to check it, if you don’t want to.
Just one thing, don’t make it a subforum of Random Chat, if you decide to make it, put it as a distinctive forum (ex. between Random chat and Art Work), please?
