Uh, its not techno and its not pop. Just because its created in the last 30 years doesn't mean that its 'Techno'. Techno is actual quite an old school feel genre, developed in Detroit during the rise of the auto industry, using futuristic and metallic sounds in music to reflect their identity...should I continue?
The song I posted is Uplifting/Melodic Trance. 140bpms created for clubs and DJs to give the euphoric high of energy and emotion.
Punk music is a division of Heavy Metal/Screamo. I can't stand the likes. Its 220bpms and hardcore guitar riffs with insane screaming vocals.

As for the Fifth Dimension, love em. That song specifically is like my dads song. Being an Aquarius its got the memories for him. So naturally I like it as well. Also, No Love In The Room is one I really enjoy.

Just because I'm opened minded to all kinds of music, as in, I love;
Four Tops, Moody Blues, Chicago, Barry White, James Brown, The Spinners, Mary Wells, The Temptations, Rick James, Paul Simon, Isaac Hayes, Smokey Robinson, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Redbone, Chris Isaac, Michael McDonald...doesn't mean I can't ALSO like;
Andrea Boccelli, George Winston, The Gypsy Kings, Enigma, Hans Zimmer, Clannad, Moby, Vangelis, Lisa Gerrard, Tiesto, Baka Beyond, Burial, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, Florence and the Machines, Geoffrey Oryema, Jerry Goldsmith, James Blunt, John Scully, Kaskade, London Grammar, Lindsay Stirling, Loreena Mckennit, Paul Van Dyke, One Republic, Olodum, Nina Simone, Neil Diamond, Sting...etc
Ya don't gotta hate cause I'm eclectic and you ain't, ya feel?

;)

You forgot to mention Al Green and Otis Redding.

Grazing in the grass is gas, baby can you dig it?

Love is all you need ...

I won't bore anyone with a litany, but my eclectic and broad range range of music I like takes a different direction. You got your BlueGRASS, Delta and Chicago blues, Jazz, Big Band, Classical guitar, Classical, etc.

Also, I clearly love me some chops to bust (with a mound of mashed potatoes snap beans) ...

Do you like folk music at all?

Fix'd it for you. My bad. A bit uneducated in that genre, I guess.

I was posting artist I know and enjoy. Al Green is one of those...the other ones...sound familiar but I couldn't name a song by em.

I prefer burritos.

Love is the answer.

I think of Bluegrass and (early) country as subsets of folk. I was born in 1952 – of course I like folk!

No, no; your list was not boring. It was stimulating. Perhaps too stimulating. MY list would have taken an hour or so to plod through and I wouldn't subject anyone to that. [As if anyone would have bothered.]

Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming ...

Has a date been announced when new turf install will start? I assume it's the day after graduation, but didn't know when that was.

Turf on Monday, sweet

Monday will also be the day wizards8507 is found after he has chained himself to the grass at Notre Dame Stadium with a tie-dye shirt on and duct tape over his mouth with the word "tradition" written on it.

While I'm not sure it's possible to chain oneself to blades of grass – maybe a 14K gold wheat-weave from Jared's – I'll be there on the (50 yard) line with the wizbanger. Solidarity!

I've always wondered what I'd look like in a tie-dyed shirt ... I'm just not sure that duct tape would stick, what with my beard and mustache and oily skin.

I understand the rationale and impetus. I understand that it's a done deal. I just wish, as something of a tree hugger, that "the old sod" be given the old "Win One For The Gipper."

Change is the only constant ...

No wonder I've never heard that song. ...a song about dental floss...and to think the criticism a modern song today would receive if it carried such lyrics.

Love is the answer.



Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming ...

What about 'modern' folk?

Okay okay guys I'll quit it with all the OT crap.

Will there be a midfield logo and Fighting Irish in the endzones? I'm kind of tired of how bland the field is.

Let's start being nice to our fellow Irishman. Even if they don't have thousands of posts.

Fuck Michigan.

Amen to that! I virtually never post so it doesn't happen to me personally but i see quite a few people come on this board with very few posts and then when they do decide to post they get ripped for asking legitimate questions and making remarks. Your post count decides your team loyalty or fanhood? GTFOH That's freaking ridiculous. There are some real internet badasses on here sometimes. I guess they're on all boards but this is the only board i'm a member of. Sorry for bitching it just gets annoying to see that so often I guess in my mind all ND fans are supposed to be cool as hell! ha

Don't apologize. There's a lot of smart members on this site that don't post much (or at all). I've PM'd with some view-only members who would be really good posters.

There is a legit troll once in a while, but they're few and far between.

Having said that, there will come a time where you and I disagree on something. When that time comes, young grasshopper, just remember that it's all good in the hood.

Haha i ain't sweatin any possible disagreements my friend man we always good in the hood! Myself as a pretty much view-only member just gets tired of seeing new people get killed and probably discouraged from posting because they feel their post count isn't high enough to join in which is totally asinine. Man whether i agree or not i enjoy reading the differing points of view for the most part its usually pretty interesting. Btw the you and Greg Bryant shit cracks me up! Hope dude goes off this year!

I'm very pleased with the stadium renovation, the Crossroads Project and the turf. I just hope that they change the look of the field up a bit. A videoboard similiar to Michigan's would be nice as well. Of course, that's just me.
