Me:
Genre: Trance
Favorite Unknown Artist: Cold Storage
Favorite Artist: Paul van Dyk
All-time song: PvD - Words

There are sooo many. I like Rammstein, Therion and Stevie Ray Vaughan a LOT.

I cannot pick one song/artist/genre for each of the categories you described.

When drinking with old friends of an older crowd I ike to listen to old rock and 80's stuff ish. Rush, led zepplin, floyd, police etc. Like today. Good times.


With friends of the same age its newer rock, and alternative.

I don't like rap and R&B I think its crap, but I can tolerate some of it like NAS. I'm down with him!

And Dace crap when Im already half in the bag and really dont care.

Genre: Difficult cause I really like lots of things. If I had to pick one though, I'd go for folk singer/songwriter.
Favorite Unknown Artist: Well Nick Drake, despite his cult status is still largely unknown, save for that damn VW ad
Favorite Artist: Nick Drake
All-time song: I forget who wrote it, but Bonnie Raitt's cover of "I Can't Make You Love Me", 1st Movement of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata is also sublime.
Current song: Currently I'm enjoying Mogwai's "Happy Songs for Happy People" in its entirety. Favorite song is "Hunted by a Freak"
