well, you did include shoegaze. I mean at least half of new bands in the US try to label themselves shoegaze.

I guess the other half try to label themselves ambient, but you're right no one else likes ambient music.

Grammar/mechanics/style issues within the English language. :excited:

Music Theory :drool:

I also am interested in U.S. cities and their population statistics! And other issues of U.S. Geography.

Asava, I was in a band and am good friends with a guy who now does ambient shoegaze in Chicago. Your friend and my new friend (WVU weekend) J.S. knows him. Do you?

im pretty interested in both physics and chemistry.

projectile physics is pretty cool stuff. easy to learn, hard to master.

i was making fun of you, not defending myself. actually a pretty big difference there and one you would've caught if you weren't simultaneously trying to read leaves of grass for the fourth time, dork. you are large, you contain multitudes. we get it already.

sure.  We have only recently come up with the math that models it exactly.
