Please do some research on Dance Music before you come here asking dumb questions like this.

It's like any Genre of music. There are those "artists" who are clowns and those who really have talent.

Go read up on the Dance Music scene and learn something about it before making retarded comments about a Genre you don't know anything about.

It's like me coming here and trying to say all Rock sucks because Nickelback is a terrible band with no talent.

Quit making generalized statements without knowing what's up.

No, even though I may like them despite their tattoos, poor taste in music, and drug addictions.

I enjoy a wide range of music, but no one party's as hard as edm fans. I look at it as a party, and don't care if it's live or not. Most enjoy it for the spectacle of it all, whether they realize it or not. You take the crowd away and there's no hype. I do appreciate it even more when pretty lights, big gigantic, keys and crates, or Robert Delong play their instruments live.

I do LOL at some of these young kids who think the world of these DJs, and think they're doing something special on stage. I went to ultra in Miami and 2013 when Swedish house mafia was playing their last set before they broke up. These kids were freaking out, I didn't get it because the group and only been together like three years.

There such a wide range of electronic music, maybe that you are not aware of. It's hard to imagine that you would not find any of it appealing.

Yup, everyone who listens to electronic music does drugs, just like everyone who listens to country music is a degenerate alcoholic and beats their wife...

Stereotypes exist for a reason. Go to a festival and you'll see a lot more paramedics running to the boom boom tent than to an acoustic stage. Some music just sounds like shite if you're sober.

Yes, this is true...Mainstage EDM garbarge sounds like shite, but that is a very small "vocal" minority of electronic dance music as a whole. It's just commercialized and consumed by the same idiot kids who do whatever is cool at the time. (mostly the same kids who like the trash Nashville puts out nowadays). And I'll agree that these kids suck, they don't know their limits and they OD, or dehydrate. This issue is a major problem with the perception of dance music, but its still not fair to call everyone who listens to it "drug addicts". They're are bad apples that ruin a lot of things in life.

House and Techno are the backbone of electronic music and have been around since the 70s. Real house and techno has soul. I know plenty of people who are extremely successful who love house and techno. Just do research before condemning an entire genre of music/music fans.

Damn kids and their rock and roll music

Two, your shitty taste in music or your shitty taste in drugs is making your shitty grammar shittier. Take some non-designer drugs and listen to some guitar.

Proper use of a comma, "to" instead of "too", I'd say it's already helping. Good on you.

Love how they made fun of Mumford and Sons in an episode of Family Guy this season.



Son: Ok Dad, I am heading to the concert.

Dad: Now hold on a minute, son. Where are your arm garters, your string tie, your woolen vest? You look nothing like a dry goods clerk from the Garfield administration.

Son: but Dad...

Dad: No buts. Your a Mumford. Now go upstairs and put on a jostly traveling hat and write the same song 25 times.
