What other rock genres really appeal to you?
To name one, I really like prog-rock. From U.K. (the band) to Yes to Ozric Tentacles, this genre just blows me away. From it's themes of folklore/myths, history, and fantasy, to the intricate musicianship this genre requires, it never fails to impress me.

I'm a big jazz and blues fan-it happened to me while I was in college at the radio station where I worked-I filled in doing that-I'd be doing a jazz show while wearing my Cramps T-shirt-
I think attitudinally-Blues and Punk-have some similarities-Blues

I like rockabilly, 50's doo wop, surf & lounge & original 1920's Jazz.
I'm a mess, but I can dance a mean Charleston while wearing a leather jacket.[:p]

Everything except modern country. Not much for hip hop and techno, but I can appreciate it in small doses.
I like new wave, punk, hits of the 1970s, old country, Jamaican music, French music, some classical, rockabilly, goth, rock, rock 'n' roll, funk

Punk(the older stuff, not this pop-punk crap that's so big today),indie, industrial, experimental electronic, noise and even a little classic rock.

I'm not trying to pick a fight devil-to me rock and roll should be a little rude and sloppy-prog rock has always been to me-a little too self-important-it's actually kind of wierd 'cause I actually like some Yes and King Crimson as well -and if that ain't

It runs the table for me although I have a tremendous amount of affection for 60's rock (especially what I would consider the two greatest years in rock:1965-1966).
Love it all really. Listened to Sinatra on the way in to work and Pink Floyd on the way
