It’s funny, the older I get, the less I like talking about music with, for lack of a better term, normies. Or more specifically, I don’t like talking about the music that I like. I love listening to other people’s opinions on music and will often ask them various questions about the artists that they love. But when these questions are pointed in my direction, I just feel uncomfortable and awkward. In fact, this happened on Saturday while I was at work. Our newest team member asked me what kind of music I prefer and the entire exchange made me feel super weird.
I know exactly what you mean. In the past I’ve been asked by people who I’m listening to or going to see live, and said “you probably don’t know them”. Not because I was being snobbish, but because when they press me to tell them they say “I don’t know any of those names.” It’s a waste of both of our times. I’ve shifted to saying what genres I listen to in hopes of them giving up
Shreen is so great aint it? Was recently revisiting Mass Nerder and Problematic and just loved every track. Love the Chad era!
