This morning I was listening to a show on KFJC (for non-locals, college radio) and it occurred to me that if you just looked at me, you might not think that I liked the kind of music being played.

So what types of music do you like that someone might think was "out of character" if they only looked at you or only knew a little about you?

For me, probably ragtime, disco, bluegrass (yay banjos).

I love some hiphop rap ~

i.e. andre 3000, missy elliot, busta rhymes, sean paul, n.e.r.d.

surprises some people

but I think it's from my time in so. va. ~ both missy & pharrell are from where I'm from

I like ragtime, disco, bluegrass too :)

Actually I really love ALL music except for shania twain, jessica simpson etc bla bla

heh.. probably people looking at me wouldn't be surprised to see me listening to the sorta world-trance-folk stuff i sometimes do, certainly not to NPR. They might expect me to listen to the Dead, which i've learned to do from Sindar, but not a lot. They would *not* expect most of the alternative bands i once was heavily in to, like Alien Sex Fiend, Butthole Surfers, Crash Worship, Hawkwind, Laughing Hyenas, Stooges etc. Or industrial. Not to mention experimental noise stuff.

I listen to all kinds of music from classic rock to country to classical to jazz to rap to everything in between. I've never been a fan of just one genre or style. I've always picked and choosed the people that I like from all over the musical map.

I suppose most of the progressive metal, power metal, classic and prog rock, and other assorted rock-type-stuff is what people expect from me. That would leave the jazz, classical, new age, celtic folk, world music, and all manner of other non-rock-type-stuff to throw them for a loop.

Mexican radio. I'm a huge fan of almost everything on 1170am and 105.7fm.

Depends on what you know. I look pretty damned normal, yet love CRASS, Bauhaus, and the like.

If you know that, you might be surprised to know of my fondness for Paul Simon, particularly the Graceland album.

I like that one too.
