I got asked to recite some of my favourite lyrics, recited all of “The End� by The Doors and got asked “Is that like Gothic music or something?�.

I almost smashed my head against a wall… and then I did when he started playing tacky hip hop and said “this is real music�.

I have very broad taste in music, so it's hard not to find something in common. But it happens, and that's usually a bad sign...

What the devil is a head hun hugs? How peculiar. :innocent:

Regarding music, there's precious few people outside of this place who have even heard of the Sisters, so music convo's with people in normal life have to take that on board. As Mr Lander said, it helps to have a wide and varied taste in music, but, you know, ultimately it doesn't, or shouldn't matter. If someone is a bit of an arse because they think your fave band is s**t, you probably don't wanna be talking to them anyway. If someone is open-minded, or at least unbothered, by such trivia, then game on.

Unless they like Travis, of course, in which case it's time to get out the big stick. :twisted:

Few people I know as well, though I try to spread the word a bit by sending compilations to my friends, probably much to their annoyance ;D :lol:

Oh Steve you're SO unsubtle. A stick is far more fun, and it lasts so much longer. :lol:

an AK47 does away with the hassle of restraining them somewhat before the stick action

Yeah, but that negates the need for a Benny Hill style chase first, and that's well important.

At best, I suppose you could take maybe an ankle out with your big gun thingy, then step aside. Coming through!

Go Dave! :)

As for the original start of the thread - in exactly the same position with anyone that knows me too, mind you that is how I got to know most of this bunch and end up falling over a bridge in Daves' garden as it nearly got light and get to play top trumps with his kids, so only a good thing :)

:notworthy: :notworthy: :lol:

But Dave, how could you traverse the bridge with ease (and a guitar!) all night, only to come a cropper as the sun starts to think about coming up? Eh? Explain that!

:wink: :kiss:

(to date no-one has actually fallen in :evil: Maybe I should install a Balrog :twisted: ).

...hate to break it to you, but The Doors were described as "gothic rock" in 1967.
