Blog Entry: 4/1/2008 Hi. My name is Lynn. I have become a member on this site because I love music..I am not musically talented.. but I play a mean CD! I am calling it "Some Of My Favorite Things" because.. I will be writing about bands that I like.. mostly new bands.. well.. NEW TO ME.. I know that you guys are probably up on the latest .. but I am old.. and well... it takes a little longer to get to my ears.. I will also write about other things..(favorite things..) but I think that mostly my interest lies in music.. I am going to start by writing about a band I have been listening to. I don't know them.. I have never met them... but I have heard their music.. and like it.. Now relax.. Like I said before.. I am not a musician.. so I have no idea if these people have any real talent.. all I CAN say is that I like them. I have been told. (many times) by musicians that "they ( a particular band) cant play" they only know a few chords" Electronic music is not real music" .."Rap Sucks" and the ever popular.. "no good music has come out since the 60's and 70's" (yes people say that) blah .. blah.. blah... I cant say if any of those are right or wrong.. (except for the last one.. of course there is good music after the 60's and 70's) but if it is pleasing to my ears.. and it speaks to me. then they are good.. and worthy of talking about.. I would love to hear what you guys think.. but PLEASE keep in mind.. I am not a musician.. and I don't even know if the bands I like have talent. all I CAN say is if I LIKE IT. I WILL ask a few things of you.. I will love to hear from you.. but please have something to say! "THEY SUCK" is not what I want to hear.. instead.. you can say.. "THEY SUCK BECAUSE"... If you have a band that you love.. and would like to tell people about them.. let me know.. I LOVE hearing new music.. I will also apologize in advance.. for 1) typos 2) manner of speech (I am from Jersey) 3) improper grammar.. (I write like I speak.. and well. .. that could be scary.. AGAIN.. I am from JERSEY!) If you can forgive these imperfections.. I think we will have fun..(ok.. I WILL HAVE FUN) Of course.. this is just an intro.. I have contacted the band I would like to talk about.. and asked for some information..I would like to have their names spelled correctly. though I may not always be factually correct.. I do try! So Welcome to my blog.. I hope you will read often... and again.. I welcome any suggestions.. (polite ones of course.. ) I'll be back soon with my first band.. and guess what? THEY ARE FROM JERSEY!!!!!
