    When I was a kid, I really liked the Beach Boys. At the same time I was into Bluegrass, and still am. When the teen years hit 1983-1989) I was somewhat into pop music. I liked country music as well. Im now into Western Swing, but still loving Bluegrass. Every now and then I get on a kick to hear 80's pop music.

    My first concert was Pink Floyd and I couldn't beleive all the people smoking pot right out in the open. I was sure the police would be swooping in at any moment! LOL! But my favorite: AEROSMITH

    ..Oh and I know it's been a thread many times before but I have to say that the lyrics and attitude of "It's My Life"- Bon Jovi were everpresent in my mind at around 15/16 when I was becoming less convinced in believability of JW life..
