Good because I was going to have to beat you up if you disagreed with me one more time

ps 139, I may borrow this quote sometime.with your name on it!

"Rock on Tommy"

I think you should learn to play an instrument. Its never too late. Jack Black of Tenacious D and School of Rock fame did not start playing guitar until he was 23.

Otherwise you probably wouldn't be drawn to it and you'd be satisfied by crappy pop.

Bump, and....

The basis of what I will explain is that objectively good music is closer to this natural order than bad music. In fact, closeness to this order is the determinant of musical quality.

Hopefully I will get my theory down in print tomorrow. Right now its in my head and on a few bits of scattered paper.

I'm still waiting, Bill....
