Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

I'm sure you do approve or disapprove of my favorite indie bands. That seems obvious!

i dont understand the point of these threads.
why do you need someone elses approval or not of your favourite bands?
it just seems..... useless
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

it's not a matter of needing the approval of others. I just find it interesting to see where my musical tastes overlap with (or contrast with) others'.

then look at the "what you're listening to" or "concerts" threads, or about particular bands. or anything but this.

it's a good way to start discussing music, which never happens on this board other than Matt Good, OLP, and all the bands that have connections with OLP (and are automatically really great).

but it's different to hear another person's take on the music (ie, criticism or praise) rather than just knowing that they listen to them or not.

But couldn't the discussion somehow be consolidated into one thread? I would hate to have to post in 43597834957 threads just to hear everyone else's opinions on the music that I listen to.

I like it... It's a little more tame than what I usually listen to... but I think I'll definately find myself listening to him in the future.


And P.S. I created this thread because I liked the other one about just bands and I thought this was also a good way to find new indie bands.

Also it's not an approval/disapproval so much as a disscussion.
