You, my friend, which you really are my friend cuz we actually know each other, are missing out. I'm not really talking about MCR but modern music in general (and I don't mean Whitacre). So you just said you don't listen that much to rock, i'm not sure about pop or techno, I'd laugh pretty hard if I saw you bustin' it out to "pop lock and drop it", but there's something to be loved in every genre of music. The only genre I haven't liked yet is country but I'm sure there's something underneath that underwood, mcgrath, honkey-tonk crap that could appeal to me.
If you think about it the roots of many types could be stemmed from Classical... and maybe African tribal music? O and i guess ancient Chinese stuff, too...ugh nvm.
