Schwa. Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 What Are You Listening To Right Now (Archive) Been picking away at this for months, here and there. Albums only, nothing live. There may be some repeats but for the most part it's all one offs. Excellent listening, Skanks!!Honourable mention to Esau, Newrider, Hamilton and Kanada Kev for their massive contributions to this list. There are plenty of others but these guys have the obvious majority.ENJOY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwa. Posted October 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 I should start a "Things I've learned" list.#1-Hamiton has a fuckin-awesome jazz collection.#2-Esau has more music than he could ever listen to#3-ollie only listens to metal#4-NewRider should, by rights, be a very depressed individual.

Davey Boy 2.0 Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 So, in closing, I'd like to give big ups to God, Buddha, L. Ron, whoever. Hell, maybe I just need to thank me. If there's one thing I've learned through all my adventures and conquests, it's that some people are just wired for success. I had no choice when it came to being great. I just am great. I'm not trying to sound cocky or full of myself, but Kenny Powers has a sneaking suspicion that no matter what comes his way he will always be great. Because that's just the way shit works sometimes. This has been based on a true story. The motherfuckin' end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Low Roller Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Awesome Schwa. I was tempted by doing the same thing due to my bizarre obsession with extracting information from data, and this data set was absolute gold for creating some sort of amazing analysis of musical tastes on this forum.

Booche Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 FISTHYour guilt trip will not work on me. It's your fault you are going there, not mine. This little spreadsheet of yours will not save you from the wraths that await. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwa. Posted October 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 It's actually a shame that a lot of the posts are pics only because the host sites have removed them and they aren't there anymore. I'd have to guess about 200-250 at least. There were also a lot of pics that i didn't recognize the band or album cover and so they got left behind too.Keep the text coming and if I update this at all it'll make it easier.
