I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing! Maybe I should post more non-guitar?

I do think the majority of guitarists do actually listen to a lot of guitar music. Look no further than myspace: all the classical guitarists on there have classical guitar friends. It seems as if the real world works much the same way: the majority of people that patronize guitar concerts and buy guitar albums are guitarists.

I don’t think that was the case just 20 or 30 years ago when we were still riding out the Segovia craze. Makes me wonder what’s changed. Are the artists worse? Are they better? What happened to the people who filled up up sold-out halls for Segovia’s concerts?

In fact, I could say that the posts I dug the most here were both from the non-guitar category. Ren B’s last blog post..Welcome from the newcomer

Couldn't agree more with fact n4. I'm also a guitar player and I rarely listen to guitar music, specially if it's not from 20th/21st centuries. Ren B’s last blog post..Welcome from the newcomer

I think I told her Paranoid. I think I wanted to listen to Iron Man mostly. I still love the B-side of that album: Electric Funeral (first song I ever learned on guitar), Hand of Doom (most fun to sing with), Rat Salad and Fearies Wear Boots. Great stuff.

Did you tell your mom to pick Paranoid or she picked it on her own? That is so cool you started with Paranoid. I remember the title song being sort of the anthem of our high school years.

Thanks for sharing and participating! Looking forward to the list of people you’ve tagged.
