What do you listen to?

[lyman]

Reggae, yeah, when the mood strikes.
I am no connoisseur of anything musical, hence my vote for BLuegrass.

I'm a Big Ska fan, esp the 80's English wave of Ska

seen most of the big names in concert,

like Reggae as well, but like you, when the mood strikes, (did see Burning Spear open for the Talking Heads in 84)

What was that Zidico or something years ago. I liked that. Tiny desk is great. I've seen some great stuff there.
So was Music Fog. That's where I first saw the Lovell sisters, now Larkin Poe.
Mandolin Orange on tiny desk- (I've never been real crazy about her fiddle playing) Stick around for Wildfire.

Lovell sisters on Music Fog- Larkin Poe has gone to to be successful but when they were a trio they rocked. They are only about sixteen here.

Great stuff, dryheat

One of the wonderful things about music and the internet is not being limited to what the recording companies release and the DJs play. There's a whole universe of really good music that when I was in high school, college and all the way through middle age just couldn't be accessed, at least without really working at it.

A few you missed that I like are Jazz, Blues, and Funk. Besides classic rock and country

try being a punk\new wave fan back in the 80's,,,

had to find a record store that carried it (not that hard in RVA, since we are a College town, (VCU UR VUU)
but tickets and concert announcements were difficult,

some places used ticketmaster, but you had to go ask the clerk at the store who was around, (and you were lucky if they would tell you 5 names)
smaller clubs were word of mouth
and some places had a mailer\flyer ,


missed a lot of stuff by finding out the day of or after,





BTW,,

try some Andrew Bird,

good stuff

I'm all over the place. I'm a Parrot Head so I like Buffet, then Bag Pipes, the Piano Guys are good, I've just started listening to Celtic music and love listening to the Fishermans Friends.

Have you ever been to Colombia or do you just like the music?

[Sandpebble]

In 1989 I was the first foreigner known to enter a village in the Colombian Andes .... El Aguila , Valle, Colombia .

I own a small farm their now and to this day am known as " El Gringo Primero " ... the first Gringo.

Couple of years ago I purchased a 100 year old five bed house in the city of Cartago , in Valle del Cauca

So the answer to both questions is... yes

Beautiful country, great people. We have friends from Medillin, one of the places on our bucket list to go. What do you grow on your farm?

It looks like the money crops are coffee and plantains.

sorry for the side trip, and now back to music...
