I'm wondering as to which class this is of which this person likes to play his annoying music.....not sure if I'm in there or not...cause I sit next to a guy that listens to some wacked out shit (I mean....Australian didjiridou solos? What the hell is up with that?). I totally agree with the statement that headphones are meant to be utilized for personal use. This person must not care that they are broadcasting their music out to angry ears, or they just may be oblivious to the fact that there are real people around them, and not Klingon spies, like some people in my computer class seem to think.

Oh, and here's one thing OHB.

Underground punk circuits are created because there are certain bands that just simply DO NOT WANT to be played on the airwaves, for that means that they become associated with the likes of Aguliera, Creed, and Nelly. I know I don't want to be associated with bands like that.

Most underground punk circuits are non-existant nowadays....or more like, there aren't as many as there used to be. Green Day made their initial fan base through underground touring and shit like that.

Now, one thing is that the punk that spawned the pop punk shit that's out there today is still effective.

While the Ramones obviously haven't put out an album in quite a while, punk bands such as Bad Religion and Fugazi have put out recent solid albums that hearken back to the good old days. (Look at me talking, as if I was a fan of that music back then).

I do believe that I am in the minority here when I say that I enjoy "punk". Or more like....emo punk. Saves the Day, The Get-Up Kids, Face to Face, Hey Mercedes, Hot Water Music and others like them have solid music that most people initially do not appreciate. I for one, did not enjoy listening to Saves the Day for the first time. I hate to say it, but I've become much more appreciative of it after I gave a few listens and actually paid attention to music, and didn't put it on as background.

I dig almost every kind of music, except for country, mostly because they're still stuck in the same place that they were in a decade ago.....there are a few exceptions, but damn, I just can't find an appreciation for most of it. Country and Australian Didjiridou Solos are two types of music you will never see in my collection.

So, what I'm trying to say is, stop trying to shove your tastes upon other people, and I don't mean exclusively the stuff you like. I mean stop trying to tell people what's good and what isn't just because it's your preference.

And that's all there really is.
