did you even read my post at all?
the point of the post was not to
say that idm is the be all end all,
or that any genre is for that matter,
but that what's most important is
to passionately enjoy the music (or,
fuck, if you don't like music, have
passion for something). it said that
120 minutes was a great show. i agree.
why don't you read the post again?
it's attatched below... no need to get
your defenses up... i wasn't putting
you down, if anything i was defending
your viewpoint, or right to them, more
correctly.
