This thread will serve as something that people can refer to before starting a thread that has been discussed countless times here. Hopefully this will keep the rest of the threads fresh.

FAQs
Below are some questions that get frequently asked as well as threads started. There doesn't really need to be any more discussion on these, so I'll provide the answers.

Q: Why does music suck today?
A: You mean, why do you hate new music? The answer is different for everyone. But most likely you are listening to what comes on the radio and basing your opinion on that. There is a ton of music available to everyone very easily. You just have to do more than turn on a radio to find it. Try Pandora, Spotify Radio, or just asking for recommendations here, based on what you like.

Q: People here are pretentious assholes who only like jam bands
A: That's not really a question, but there are some people here who are like that (kingbob) who tend to post a lot. Most people here aren't pretentious and are open minded, even if Nickelback is your favorite band.

Q: Why do people like "rap" music. It's not really music.
A: That's your opinion. All genres have bands who have a cookie cutter approach to making music. Rap has some pretty talented artists, whether you like the sound or not.

Q: Where can I sell my vinyl?
A: It's probably not worth much, but you can do a bulk sale to a record store, sell it on craigslist, or post your albums here and people may want them.

FSTs
Here are some threads that you can refer to if you want to discuss common topics.

Who is the best guitarist?

What is the best cover song?

Are The Beatles Good or Overrated?

The Beatles or the Stones?

I'll add more to the list if you have suggestions.

Q: Why does everyone hate Kingbob? He seems like a nice enough guy to me. What gives?

A: Some posters have unpopular tastes in music that do not align with the tastes of frequent posters. Unless you're sure that some frequent posters agree with your tastes, it's very important to never reveal to the Music Board what style of music you enjoy.

Of all the pretentious assholes who like jam bands, you single out kingbob? I'm not saying he isn't a pretentious a-hole who likes jam bands (which is redundant anyway), but there are far more egregious examples here.

Q: OMG. Have you guys heard of X (Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell, John Moreland, Lil Dickie)?


A: Yes. We have, and there's probably a thread about it two pages back.

I didn't really expect a sticky. I'm just sick of stupid people who don't bother to use the search function but instead create yet another "why does music suck now?" Thread.
