a brief summary

i figured i would share a little bit about what i like to listen to. my musical tastes arent very strange at all. they are perfectly normal. if you think they are strange, perhaps it is just you who is the strange one, no?it would probably help to explain my music listening background. i grew up listening to country. not this crappy country thats so popular now, im talking REAL country music- like jonny cash, ronny milsap, oakridge boys, statler brothers, marty robbins, conway twitty, etc. as i began to choose what i wanted to listen to i was introduced by a couple friends to this whole 'christian rock' type stuff. so i started listening to stuff like audio adrenaline, newsboys, dc talk, etc. but i soon grew weary of the generic cookie cutter music and cheap lyrics. i started to explore the more offbeat christian music like joy electric, starflyer 59, ln, pony express, andrew osenga, etc. and still enjoy some of it. otherwise i like some of the stuff on the radio, but the past year or two i have found very few bands that i have any interest in. instead i just keep up with some older bands and enjoy their new stuff. bands like u2, our lady peace, black lab, bush (or now institute), nine inch nails, smashing pumpkins, verve pipe (or now brian vander ark), hootie and the blowfish, michael jackson, and a few others. anyway, thats my musical tastes in a nutshell. that should give you an idea of what kind of stuff i dig...
