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.

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.

Yeah, sorta...it ain't "inconsiderate" if its "profound." It's really not "where" but WHAT I can stand - purely personal choice. The article's snotty attitude aside, I would not raise my children or raze my home on hard metal rock. As I said, ears are the portal to the mind.

The essential is to be FREE to listen to whatever music we choose. I don't want to be censored (by the ACLU, et al) for playing Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring."

Merry Christmas, from Purpleland (ref:WH Hudson's novel)
