Right...
Bizarrely, the thread creator's last visit was on September 10th - the same day this thread was created. Confused

^ Which is one of the definitions of trolling (triggering heated discussion, but never really contributing anything meaningful).

There have always been users that do such thing every once in a while. Create some drama and sit on the side with bag of popcorn (I imagine) and have a laugh...

Hi, 

I often think that a lot of these thoughts, ideas and questions, are somewhat misguided, and not always clear. In some ways, I try to take the idea into the are where the question might make some sense, but sadly ... no one can even relate to the advent of STEREO in radio and popular music as being one of the most ground-breaking moments in listening. STEREO was already very important in Classical Music, but it did not really take hold until Sgt Peppers the other albums at that time, when what you heard on the radio was really poor, compared to the album that you bought, which (of course!!!) meant that sales were going to be astronomical because of the quality of the music to your ears.

I am not sure that it was meant as an idea to create "drama", but I think that the naivete with which it was created, and the inability to read the answers, some of which are very important and valuable, all of a sudden made his OP seem insufficient ... and of course, he would not have much more to say! Probably embarrassed, as it looked like a lot of folks had a better idea for the discussion than what the OP thought ... kinda suggests he did not really read enough into the threads in the board, which have some neat material and comments, not to mention information!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

@OP

Have you ever listened to a Styx album?
If so, which ones. Simply stating "these bands don't belong on PA" is not going to cut it.

Nothing like a bit of a kerfuffle to lively up the joint, even if the guy who threw the first punch has long since run for the hills.

He probably just lost his way and is now safely back ensconced on his favourite music forum, where the Doors are considered a pop band and all is right with the world.

^ Though his last visit was Sept 10, '23, the thread start date, not terribly long for a baiter.

Hmm...not at all aware of what the statute of limitations is on this sort of thing.

I wait with bated breath for the OP to return and give his assessment of whether his original post has been addressed to his satisfaction.

Anyway, some very good discussions here and interesting read.

Yeah just a lot of chat. We arent ever going to come to any meaningfull conclusion on this. The PA database is precious to me regardless of whether I agree with the inclusion of certain bands and artists. I learn a lot all the time and am happy for it to continue in any way possible.
