hey everyone, I've decided I want to learn more about music in general, since 95% of what I listen to is brand new, and I hate not knowing the roots of the music I'm listening to.
I need as much help as I can get though, because my knowledge of the essentials is limited at best. Anyone care to contribute to the cause? The more info the better, but I'm happy with just band names.
Thanks.
