AC/DC of course, what a stupid question :P
further other 80's/90's music :)

AC/DC rules. I remember strutting around the playground in 4th grade with a boombox on our shoulders playing "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" and thinking we were actually cool.

Haha, that's awesome. Don't see many ghetto blasters nowadays, everyone has their own little mp3 player.

I listen to a wide variety of music, mostly rock and electronica, although I'll listen to anything and everything by Emilie Autumn (gothic rock, 'victoriandustrial', classical..). My last.fm page says it pretty nicely, the only thing I'd add is that if I had started using last.fm a year ago, Aerosmith would be 1st or 2nd on my top artists list. Aerosmith rocks, I'm just tired of them as of late.

I've been listening to a lot of industrial lately, mostly KMFDM and Front 242, also Skinny Puppy.

Arch Enemy (female-fronted Swedish melodic death metal band) and Attrition are also up there, but I don't have much music by either band. :(

Whee for last.fm charts:

Cool to see the sex pistols on there . . . I recently got some obscure stuff from P.I.L. which is pretty cool (much earlier stuff than their pop-like greatest hits stuff like Rise, Seattle, etc..)

Haha, J-Pop is crazy. That's one aspect of Japanese culture that I don't envy...

Well, as a musician that plays violin, i tend to like EVRYTHING!

I have a very wide variety when it comes to music. I dont even have a favorite band. i only like a few songs from lots of different artists. I like everything from Bon Jovi to Daniel Powter to Kelly Clarckson, Leahy (fiddle stuff), Sheryl Crow, Greenday, and Black Eyed peas. So i have a very wide taste on music! lol

Anything but Bach!!! Are you crazy??? You sound like me a few years ago - up until about two years ago I just wasn't particular about Bach. But after studying many of the works of Scarlatti and then moving to Bach, i found that his music is so textured, at so many different levels its unreal.

Since then i have completed his entire French Suites, English Suites, Goldberg Variations, and a lot of his earlier stuff including his youthful Variations in A-minor which is really obscure and a predecessor to the Goldberg, but not many people even know about this piece - even most Bach afficiendos.

I said anything "By" Bach, not anything "But". Huh huh, Bach is cool.

When you say you "Completed" those pieces, do you mean that you learnt to play them on the piano? That's pretty impressive
