[Regular Guy]

Love a variety of music, mostly Celtic (The old Dancehall tunes esp.), some of the old Rock and Roll, Blues, C&W (Toby Keith, Mac Davis – Hard To Be Humble). Even better if it motivates me to pick it up on the guitar. (Love poring over the sheet music at the music store. Would love to take in a Santana concert. High energy music in the morning. If the music is fun, maybe a little humour mixed in – so much the better. That's the key for me. There is such a rich culture of music out there waiting to be reborn it's worth revisiting a lot of the old artists. I find that with time my perspective on a lot of it has changed. I enjoy now what I perhaps didn't quite find interesting at the time. As far as the new material I wouldn't classify myself as a cult follower. I just know what I like.

It would be shorter to list the kind of music I don't like...gansta rap, most house music, most hip hop, but there are always exceptions in any category of music. Good music is good music, no matter the style.

The music I love runs the gamut from classical to zydeco, and it's almost impossible to beat classic rock or true R&B. Sometimes I will spend an afternoon listening to the old crooners like Sinatra, Bennett, and even Dean Martin.

Or sometimes I just go off on a tangent and play old Kate Bush vids on youtube.

And then there's this guy...Doug Kershaw, the king of Zydeco Cajun music. His song Louisiana Man was the first song to be broadcast back from the moon, but I have a fondness for this one...Cajun Stripper. I wonder why?

And last...Vannesa Mae. I have no words to describe her.

And if I can add another one :

11- Kraftwerk

That's the first top ten in many years that I've been able to actually know (own music of) more than two or three on the list. Good bands, but for my money you have to have a stong female lead vocal such as Stevie Nicks.

 

[montreal_monk01]

I love all kind of music, but if I was given the choice of just one type of music, it would definitely be some good Tango.

[Doc Holliday]

Doc, I think you're a little younger than I am (which case the following wouldn't apply to you) but I'll ask anyway: were you, back in the late 70's/early 80's what we used to call a "limer" (i.e. a permanent resident of the Limelight on Stanley)?

I am talking of the days Robert Ouimet used to be the DJ and Germain, the doorman.

No, i wasn't. The only "Limelight" i'm familiar with was the great Rush song under the same name.

My love for rock & especially classic rock music is one of the main reasons why i'd enjoy spending my spare time in stripclubs back in the 90's. I used to tell people that stripclubs were the only places left where great rock tunes could still be heard. I was never much a fan of the hip-hop shit played in discos & other nightclubs. Today, i rarely spend any time whatsoever in stripclubs since they're now mostly a cash-grab & the music sucks. Most of the time, they mostly play gangsta rap, which i absolutely hate!

 

[hormone]

No, i wasn't. The only "Limelight" i'm familiar with was the great Rush song under the same name.

Yeah, Rush is probably the only band that I ever admitted was my "favorite" over all others. I love music of so many genres, that I cannot start saying this is my favourite versus this one. It all so much depends on the time of day, the mood, the company, the place I"m at... It's easier to say what I don't like...

But almost anytime RUSH would be fine, they have evolved over so many styles themselves. They were my favorite band to see live, also, as they were known to never put on record anything they could not recreate live, that is until Power Windows I believe. But boy could they have complex instrumentations for 3 pairs of hands and feet!

One good place to hang out these days and hear "oldies" from the 80's alternative scene is Le Passeport. It has some reminiscence to the Limelight (on how both sites were once defining places to listen to some music). FOufounes was another.

Oh we are doing top 10's now? Okay here is mine:

6) Dokken
7) Queensryche
8) Rush

Happy..., I feel we could have been to the same shows! I actually remember seeing Juan Croucier (ex Dokken) with Ratt (opening for the Oz man) and Ratt axe-man playing a solo stolen from Dokken's "Paris is Burning"... (form the days of Croucier).

And Queensryche were always a fav of mine too, brillant compositions... I'll never forget discovering their first EP, which I must have listened to at least 100 times the first month I bought it... And then: Operation Mindcrime... Probably one of the metal albums that will never grow old (not that Slayer ever gets old either...).

 

[link72]

I was in Chez Paree last trip and getting dances when my favourite song of all time came on, Metallica's, "One". Of course they cut off the solo at the end. Can't have the girls dancing to a 7 minute song, right.

Another of my favourites would be "Killing in the Name" by Rage Against the Machine. I did see a girl strip to this a few years ago. "Milk of Human Kindness" by Clutch is a kick ass tune. Any early stuff by Helmet gets me pumped. Yes, I like 80's and 90's punk/metal, no hair band stuff for me. Hendrix, Zeppelin, Cream, and some classic rock. I like newer stuff too, but just don't download or buy stuff anymore. Last discs I bought were White Stripes and System of a Down, a couple years ago. I do listen to more mellow stuff as well, REM, older U2, Radiohead, Coldplay.

I definitely would love to bang Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Rhianna and Alicia Keys. Love the milk chocolate, just not the music.

Operation: Mindcrime, might be my all time favorite album! A local's bar I go to will play VH1 Metal Mania on it's big screen tv's, late at night when it comes on........ I feel so old when some of the kids around me go, who is this, the song isn't that bad, but how they look is! I miss the eighty's sometimes! I liked all of the Hair Metal bands back then. I liked Ratt too, I forgot to put them on my list.

It is so true! Operation: Mindcrime is probably one of the most intelligent albums I have heard...
And do I know the feeling about older bands! I went to see Rush on their latest tour. Before that, I go for dinner at a restaurant where I am a regular. The head waiter comes to greet me and asks me how come I'm so early that night and I tell him I am going to see a show. His smile fades when I tell him "Rush" and he admits he has no clue who they are...

 

[maximus]

Any news on when Tool's next album is due to come out? Curious also to know if Maynard James Keenan's other band, A Perfect Circle is up to something these days.

Did you catch there show in july it was awesom I know Maynard is doing his solo thing I have not heard of anew Tool album.

 

[z/m(Ret)]

La complainte de l'officier Lacouille, sous étiquette Blue Broken Record.

I didn't see the show. Kinda passed the age to get charged by some crazy ass teens in a mosh pit.

You could have gotten seats, rather than tickets on the floor...

I didn't go since I can't be bothered to go see/hear anything at the Bell Centre anymore. It just plain sucks as a venue! Though I would make an exception if Led Zeppelin were to drop by...
