What Kind of Music Do You Like?
2robots4u:
I find it easier to answer with music I don't like: rap, hip-hop, hard-rock, dixieland jazz. In all other musical fields, i.e. country-western, there are some artists I can't stand (Glen Campbell, Alan Jackson and honky-tonk singers) and some I do like (Reba, Patsy Cline, Martina McBride). But my favorite music is classical, including opera and Broadway shows. I have a collection of about 3000 albums, vinyl and CDs, and spend much time listening to them. Have not worked since 9/11 so when I am in the house the music system is working overtime. The great thing about multi-changer units is putting in the max number of CDs and let it go, upwards of 7 hours without having to change anything, and a mix of all types of music. What to do with them when I depart this earth???

Well I for one do like country music. It's been my favourite for many years...but I do like all kinds...country gets boring once in awhile. Gotta have some Def Lepard or ColdPlay to stir things up! But the best song of all time has to be when Jake sings that hymn to Ennis at the campsite! What a hit! Why didnt they put that on the soundtrack?? ??? ;D

I have some Eagles, Kate Bush, Fleetwood Mac, Nina Hagen, Thin Lizzy, Heart, Neil Young, and some snazzy soundtrack LPs, such as that to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"--to name a few. Relics of a bygone age, no less beautiful or potent for being temporarily silent.

God. I remember the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I managed a movie theater (Castleton I,II and III... General Cinema) around 1980-1983 and we ran The Rocky Horror Picture show every Friday and Saturday at midnight and again around 2:00 in the morning. The entire theatre would be trashed... popcorn, cups, candy and many things too disgusting to mention here. People would come dressed up in drag... including straight guys! It was a lot of fun. I don't think they play Rocky Horror Picture Show anymore here in Indianapolis, but those are some really great memories! :)

Country music gets boring once in awhile?? Wow! Try listening to some Lonestar, Alan Jackson, Brad Paisley, Sara Evans, Toby Keith or Dixie Chicks! They never get old! :D

It seems that many theaters who show (or have shown) the movie as a midnight attraction have mixed feelings, at best, about it, since cleaning up afterwards can be so daunting. The movie still plays at midnight in Austin, Texas, though not in the same venue in which it was first made available as such. Austin was the second city in the world to show RHPS as a midnight movie (New York was the first).
