i listen to a lot of the 60s-70s music. i also listen to a lot of heavy metal. kind of funny, because one day a friend will come over and i'll be listening to Rage Against the Machine and the next day i'll be listening to Smokey Robinson.

Do you like the Sex Pistols any? I mean come on, there can be no good 60's-70's play list without some Sex Pistols!



I'm the same way with music, one hour its Reaggaton, next its happy hardcore(techno), and all of this happens right before I listened to some Eazy-E or NWA.
