To be fair, I do consider myself a fair music buff, if at least in the disparate rock genres. I've delved further into music than I have film, I'd say.Not to toot my own skull trumpet or anything like
Most people I know know **** all about **** all, though. I got super-psyched when I met a guy who knew NOFX and the Descendents and shit because that never happens. Most conversations I have about music these days are about parts of music I'm less familiar with. I can hold my own, but it's still surreal to find that people often don't even know the Four Tops or Otis Redding and shit, let alone other stuff.
Originally posted by SlayIt's probably just because music is such a massive medium that the parts you explore are usually massively different to other music buffs. I listen to a bunch of genres, but I'm mostly centred around guitar-based stuff. But I've still heard a fairly wide range of albums per genre.
I'd consider myself that as well, but I've never listened to a Boston album and I never will. Maybe that's because I've always listened to several genres though.

I was definitely too judgemental about alcohol, like, I'm house sitting for someone watching their cat, she's adorable, and like they left me a ton of different alcohols and like I haven't drank in months and like actually unwinding and just indulging a bit watching some Drunk History on Superman taking down the KKK, you know...things are alright.
Originally posted by SlayI'd say I was about the same, kinda. I do like reggae quite a bit, so I've got that covered, but electronic music is my main weakness. I'm still pretty rudimentary with it. I like the Aphex Twin/Boards of Canada/Venetian Snares side of it, but it doesn't go much further than that, in all honesty.
Could be, but by now I'd say I have at least a marginal understanding of basically every genre and it's sub genres, even country and that, but not reggae. I just really hate reggae.
