Who influenced you musically?

Well I think it started WAY back with my hippie parents
Raise on Beatles, the Momma’s and the Papa’s and many more greats
Then add, pink Floyd, the who and more.
Top that with LOTS of classical, and musicals and so on

Right away I feel in love with music
I started making music before I really got into bands.
I was into just about every kind of music that came my way.
Music = good (as long as it was good)

When I started getting older,.
Starting bands:
Beatles
Nirvana
Radiohead (not as much as I like them now)
Greenday (I WAS LIKE 8 OK!!!!)


Then in middle school I was into the same music, plus angst punk rock bands
In high school I calmed my pukness a bit…

Then I just went on my own, looking into all the music I could… I’m open to all kinds of music, just depends if it’s good or band… I guess
So did I do this right?
I’ll say Mom and dad started my off with my Beatle roots, on to my search for everything. My brothers wise lead to better music, and me taking off to be the super start I am no hahhahhaha!!!

ok well I tryed :D

it went from London bridges falling down...to the Commodores 'Easy' to Lionel Ritchies' 'Dancing on the ceiling' to Abbey Road to Run DmC to Breakin' the soundtrack to Kraftwerk to Duran Duran to Thomas Dolby to Rush to Twisted Sister to Black Flag to Ween to MR. Bungle to Zenakis to the record store for the 100th time to playing bass in a pair of quasi g'string turquoise bikinis in front of a house party at VA Tech with my first band...watching two girls fight each other for position to see us tear it up.. oh yeah and right now I think sleeveless t'shirts are f'n sonic as shazzle...

....hmmmmm......my first love was yes.....Donny Osmond.......and no I'm not Morman....then it went to KISS......to AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, uhm....Hanoi Rocks, The Cure, NIN, Ravey kinda stuff, hardcore punk, Ramones, Pistols, The Clash....theatrical soundtracks......to uhm.....everything I guess....

My Dad plays music (saxaphone & sings) but he listened to James Brown & Sinatra and such. Mom Liked the same while I was growing up. Now when I visit them the station is on cool jazz....eesh.....:ticking::duh:

When most kids had “normal” parents that played them stimulating classical music as well as baby music my dad had Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, The Clash, Elvis Costello, DOA, The Buzzcocks, Television, Talking Heads… records blasting 24/7. If it weren’t for him I would probably be listening to a lot of crappy bands.

Hey Seb.. Are you my son?

Two words PUNK and ROCK.. My parents weren't really into music but we always had a radio on.. I grew up in the 70's (My God.. How old are you.. ) and there was soul,Rock,glam,disco loadsa stuff then suddenly.. Punk Rock.. John Peel every night a billyion (ha ha) bands seem to come from nowhere.. My first gig was a band called Penetration.. Two days later i saw The Rezillos and the week after that X-Ray Spex.. That was me.. Hooked Lined and Sinkered..

AW Dyler! My little brother LOVEs the X-Ray Spex and I adore them. He wants me to teach him all the saxaphone parts, I'm getting there .....I'm trying to learn it by ear :duh: who am i kidding? it's going to take me forever, since I can't find the damn notation anywhere

Oh well, getting back on the subject. My parents influenced me alot kinda the way your dad did Seb. Both of my parents played lots of music all the time, my mom usually played Berlin, Blondie, The Cure, Bob Marley or Led Zeppelin. I remember my dad playing a whole lot of Depeche Mode (Depeche Mode is one of my favorites) Pink Floyd, Talking Heads, New Order, AC/DC, E.L.O (also one of my favorites, Jeff Lyne is the man, my dad taught me well) The Eagles, The Steve Miller Band, Duran Duran.........you get it..... lots of various music.

My mom doesn't like the music we listen to at all. My mom likes listening to the local rap station haha.

At least MTV was good back then..The youth of America is growing up on Linkin Park and Jessica Simpson's little sister who's riding her coat-tails..What a sad time it is for us Americans..
