I prefer it all! some I don't purposely listen to, but all genres have something I like. my BF has been in several Portland bands, plays guitar and now he has a jam room in the basement- wants to record and such. you two would have a great time talking shop!i was a manager at Tower Records in Boston for 7 years...and lived with and was a live and studio engineer for a band. Music is essential. what type of music do you prefer? Soignee started a really good thread in the Lounge...it's called Jam Band Fans Unite
