Is it possible to have another music forum creating for people who know something about music?

And one for pop star discussion?

Seems unlikely!

*gasp* He's one of them, Andaroo!

Andaroo you don't know nothing. Go to hell because I'm the mothafucking princess. Avril style!

Amazing idea.

Or, ya know... ban any speak of non-rock music.

I don't know about that.

Maybe a handful... but that's about it.

I just deleted my post, and didn't mean too. Lack of sleep.

See!

You're going insane.

Andaroo don't you participate in some of these discussions though.

A forum for some non pop music would be nice, I don't feel at home in the main one with a abundance of Avril/Pink/Duff/Clarkson threads.

Well, why don't you start your own fucking threads. You people are just fucking stupid.

Perhaps

Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven 84 on Metacritic - WTF!!!

Well, do it. No one is stopping you.

The problem is FEW come to those threads because of you and your ilk.

I didn't say "ban non-rock" music, the recent discussion of Kate Bush is interesting, and I'd love discussion about the finer points of Jazz and Classical.

There was a Kate Bush discussion? :O

I'd like a list of what is classified as good and bad. I would hope that you don't think Kelly Clarkson is bad.

But, I'll be more than happy if you blast Hilary Duff, Avril Lavigne, and Pink. That I am A-OK with.

Kelly Clarkson counts as pop music.

Pretty much if you like bands/"musicians" like:

Linkin Park
Limp Bizkit
Popular emo band
Nickleback
Hillary Duff
Christina Agulieria
Britney Spears
Madonna
Mariah Carey
Bad rap music (like Black Eyed Peas)
American Idol contestants

You belong in the Pop Music category.

Of those, I only like Kelly Clarkson. I should at least be classified as "on the border".

Madonna for liff.

People are free to float in between the forums, I can't stop it, but the KGe contingent has almost completely taken over the Music section with talk of the most pedestrian music. There are a ton of people on this board who are extremely knowledgable about music that aren't sharing because it's all about Mariah Carey and forgettable Top 40.

I tend to alternate between Britney and Tom Waits.

It's true the music forum has become the haven for "OMG! Avril's new single RAWKS!" types, which I'm not opposed to (though I think Girlfriend far from RAWKS), but then, I fail to see what a new hardcore music forum would achive, apart from a "Foreign and Indie Film" style mini-status on the board.

Personally, I'd rather the pop-musicos (among whom I'd count myself on occasion) stuck in the Music forum, and the powers that be allowed the "proper" music folk to make threads in The Water Cooler.

as much as i'd like to see a seperation ... and i'm very much in andaroo's boat, i'm against the idea on principle. so probably no.

do what i do ... if you wanna alk about music, use the watercooler.

the music forum is for people with issues .. lots of issues. i would go as far as to say that KJ doesn't have a music forum.

it really doesnt. the title on it is wrong.

it really is

Then I recommend changing the title to "Pop Music Abyss (of Darkness)"

I'd second this.

I love Kelly Clarkson and Radiohead.

I don't feel so bad. I also like Coldplay, AC/DC, and Bruce Springsteen. Those may or may not be approved by andaroo. I'm hoping for more approvals than disapprovals.
