What is your favorite type of music?

[geodood]

I hate to be close minded, but when it comes down to music, my tastes like this:

#1 Todd Rundgren and Utopia (Todd is God)
#2 Yes (Steve Howe and Jon Anderson are prohets)
#3 Kansas - Can't have too much violin or cowbell in my rock and roll.
#4 Rush drummer Neil Peart is unreal. Best drummer and lyrist ever born
#5 Pink Floyd. Dark side of the Moon and Wish you were here are classics
#6 Emerson, Lake and Palmer, tied with Frank Zappa tied with Steve Miller.
#7 Southern rock and roll - Lynard Skynard, ZZ Top, Doobie Brothers
#8 Mid-Northern rock and roll - Styx, Steely Dan, Led Zeplin, Bad Company, Aerosmith, Blue Oyster Cult
#9 Edgar Winter Group, Black Sabboth, Iron Butterfly, Grand Funk Railroad, Three Dog Night, Oh I'm starting to show my age..

But I must admit that I like much of the new rock like Incubus, Puddle of Mudd, Nickleback, and the list goes on....

No, I can't dance to any of it!! In fact, I can't dance at all. But I can hold a lighter up in the air for the longest time before getting burned........

I lived in Dallas until a couple of years ago. I love the Old 97s. I first heard them when a band I worked for was opening for them at Treez in Deep Ellum. I hear Murray owns a BnB in Natchitoches.
