I have to agree with beth about net.music. I think that the classical subgroup should be setup and leave net.music alone for the rest the masses. after classical music discussions, the only thing really in net.music is what people call 'rock'. while thrashy indeed, it is something to read. even when it is people putting down other types of music without understanding them (I hope some skinheads come and stomp william gulley into the ground). but, net.music is for the discussion of music, and there isn't really other catagories but net.music.classical, because net.music.rock is too vague. people conceptions of rock music vary considerably. my opinion of rock music is totally different than somebody elses views on rock music(listen to the League of Gentlemen's first album and hear what they say about rock music). so make the classical faction split off, and leave the rest of the masses where they belong. i'll be disapointed if i don't get flames. -- Speaking: Tim Wicinski University of Maryland UUCP: {seismo,allegra,brl-bmd}!umcp-cs!timw CSNet: timw@umcp-cs ARPA: timw.umcp-cs@CSNet-Relay
