So I guess percussionists also don't play music, eh?
Sure - that rhythmic stuff...ain't nuthin' musical
about it.
Oddly, I've never found dress design or architecture
pleasing to the ear, nor have I ever had the urge to
dance to either...but maybe that's just me.
Man, if you don't like something, that's your right,
but to say a certain genre "isn't music," well, that
just smacks of having become your parents (WILL YOU
TURN THAT GARBAGE DOWN!?!?!?! THAT'S NOISE, NOT
MUSIC!!!!). Seems to me people were known to make
that same accusation about several British boys
playing guitars and shaking their hair.
