what a stupid argument. who cares if people like "mainstream" or not? who cares if someone else likes music you don't like?
as a wise t-shirt once said, "you're special and unique.. just like everybody else."
the beautiful thing about life is that everyone has different opinions, different likes and dislikes and different ideas and thoughts. makes the world a more interesting place, no? :thumbup:
oh, for the record, my favorite music includes swing, jazz, rockabilly, punk, alternative, rock, classical, and yes, even some top 40 stuff.
