I prefer living next door to a snotty-liberal cultural elitist who plays Bach's profound compositions and chord schemes 24/7 at full volumn than to live next door to some one who plays any raucous rock band's metal guitar psycho-cacophony for minus one minute.
Afterall, ears are portals to the mind. I'm pretty sure that Hard Rock sandblasts the mind. I'm in NH and listen almost daily to Jay Severin on FM Talk Radio. Except for Jay's choice of playing musical interludes of HARD ROCK NOISE by his favorite Metal Guitarist, he is otherwise astute and articulate with an unswerving conservative/libertarian spirit, and amazingly he has no symptoms of having a sandblasted mind - yet.
Mozart's music is more aestheticly nurturing than *that* of, say, Ozzie Bat Biter.
Forgive, I'm just burning off excess energy from my elation - post-election Reds' elation as opposed to the mordant elite Blues'
(That is, if it isn't authentic acoustic Blues.)
I know...too much "vanity." Sorry...
So, are you saying it's ok to be inconsiderate of one's neighbors, as long as they do it in a manner in which YOU find "profound"? Ok, as long as I know where you stand.
Personally, I wouldn't want to live next door to anyone who felt it necessary to subject me to their taste in music - whether I like the music or not. I am decent to my neighbors, and expect the same consideration in return.
bad Metalhead that I am.
