But by golly you playing the guitar and some music instrument sure will. Huh?ROTFLOL!!!!!!
My interest is in listening to music. All kinds of it. What do you do listen to yourself play the guitar? Why bother with a hifi at all - just do it.
Again where do you source the music that you buy?
Give me rhythm or give me death!

Actually since I started playing music, I have gained more insight into the musical performance and learn to appreciate the music, not the audio, more. This is my experience, but by no means a requirement to enjoy music and may not be the experience of other musicians.What does where I source music matter at all? Are you now suggesting the only place to buy music is a b&m store? Sorry, but Virgin Megastore and Tower Records closed down in my city.
Oh and me listening to my family practice and teach at home or in concerts doesn't count as experience for me to gain more insight into the performance or appreciation for the music?What does where I source music matter at all? Are you now suggesting the only place to buy music is a b&m store? Sorry, but Virgin Megastore and Tower Records closed down in my city.
I'm asking you how do you know what music to own? I told you I find it at record and music stores - you know at the listening stations or just by browsing. This has nothing to do with going to live events or anything. I buy music from several different outlets around town - yes tower is closed hear too and I rarely (once or twice a year) visit Virgin. I also listen to FM and have Sirrius in the gym but rarely do I buy music I hear on it. I also hear about stuff on the internet - like here in AA or buy stuff of interest from eBay.
Rarely, less than once a year, I buy something from a catalog - say Music Direct or Acoustic Sounds. But I haven't done that for a few years.
How do you source your music?
I'm only asking you this because you claimed I was a gearhead and have no/little interest in music. You're totally wrong - so answer the question. I want to know how you fuel the supply of software you run through the system you own.
Sure lately I've spent more money on gear but far less time on it than time spent listening to music.
Since about 6 AZ time I've been listening to music and posting, save for when I went out to dinner with my wife.
Just answer the question - where do you buy your music and how do you know what to buy?
Playing an intrument and listening to music are two different experiences. Try an instrument and you'll understand what I'm talking about.Used to be primarily Tower and Virgin before they closed. Now smaller independent stores and now more through the internet - usually you can download a sample before you buy. No, I don't listen for the quality of the recording, the performance is more important.
