    No no, don't scare her off! Stop that. Bold Pygmalion, bold! Here at the D4RK ONION institute of listening to better music, we like to ease our attendees into new genres, rather than tossing them in at the deep end!

    Ah to be fair, I could've gone straight into some Cannibal Corpse or whatever but have a feeling even the titles of some of their songs would be a bit much :P

    sorry guys to spoil all the fun, but I dont think I'll be becoming some sorta "rocker" anytime soon. I just went along to see my cousins band and the other 3 bands (with music not as "crazy" as the stuff you've suggested :P).
    The closest thing to that sorta thing for me would be paramore. No crazy guys with long hair, sorry. :o

    Van Halen are not crazy, and neither are twisted sister! Did you listen to the music? Van Halen is essentially 80s pop with guitar solos! Forshame Soccymonster, forshame... :mad:

    Cant you be like a scene kid with cool hair? And like a band purely because they also have good hair?

    You've listened to every type of rock music? That's impressive! I mean, I'm a rock fan for about 10 years of my life and I haven't done that! :rolleyes:

    ok.. so is your goal to try and make me like rock music ("certain genres")?
    If so, then I'll listen to those music yokeys in the other thread, everyone happy now? :P

    And I really actually dont see any differences unless you compare Paramore to the likes of metallica or something!?
    And yess, I don't know anything about rock music unless elvis counts as rock (rock n roll?? :confused:)?

    Soccy needs to be exposed to these things, otherwise she'll never learn!

    EPIC MODERATION IS EPIC

    I've no problem with you not "being into rock" if you've given the bloody stuff a chance! Honestly, you looked at a snapshot of a video and decided it wasn't for you. Awesome.

    In fairness, i wouldnt hate all rock bands and stuff. Green day and Paramore are class like. But at the same time, others are just.. not for me!
    I could be proven wrong but sure..
    I'll check out those vids later as the mobile dont support videos :confused:.

    All we're saying is keep an open mind, when I was your age, I thought all dance music was shít, and I really like it now (Well a lot of it, I dont like all of it)

    If you like Paramore, try Brand New (The albums, 'Your Favourite Weapon' and 'Deja Entendu' are brilliant).
