all my life i have been a great fan of music, i love all music really and appreciate all styles to some degree. my first memory of music is of when i was very young maybe three or four and my mother had my three siblings and i all dancing to micheal jackson and a bit of lionel richie, this memory is very dear to me and i still love all the seventies and eighties music. the feeling i had that day was of pure happiness and excitement and i think that this was the moment that i became a music lover ever since then i love to listen to music no matter what mood i am in it always seems to make me feel good and relaxed. when did you first become a fan of music and can you remember the moment you became aware of how powerfull music really can be.

I think for sure it was in High School that music really became important in my life. I grew up in the Golden Years of music as far as I am concerned. People like The Beach Boys and the Beatles came to our city when they were just starting out. I grew up with their music and the music of many others like Simon and Garfunckle, Elvis, Janis Joplin and many others. Woodstock happened in those glory days as well. So did all the Vietnam protest songs..Arlo Guthrie and many others.. Jimi Hendrix just started out. It was a great era for music..

you were very lucky to have lived through that era i myself would have loved to have been around for those days when music really had alot more power on peoples lives, i do feel lucky to have been from a generation that now has the technology to be able to hear music from all around the world any time of the day. but i really would have loved to have seen the beatles live. i have been lucky enough to meet sir paul mcCartney as he lives just up the road from us but he has never offered a private show lol.

Music has always been really important to me. I grew up around all different types of music so there is a wide range that fits my taste. By the time I was two years old I knew all the words to "Bad to the Bone"... apparently it was my favorite song. Even when I was really young I had my own records, 8 trax and cassettes. Music is like therapy to me.

My father was a drummer, and played in a band, so I was brought up with music practically from birth. Music has always been important to me and over the years has always been a big part of my life.
