Yeah! Do you take suggestions??
The concept pretty much is for someone to dedicate a week (can do between 4-7 albums) and select albums of their own choosing.....I re-stickied the thread above that contained the list of albums that have already been done (it's been completely updated as of the last one I did so we could avoid any repeats) and it's an interesting way for people to recommend a singer/band that in some instances no one has heard of before.... Or people sometimes opted to do more popular ones because they tend to occasionally rekindle some memories and people also realize they may share the same taste....
I particularly enjoy the diverse music interests that has been prominent on this forum...I of course naturally enjoy everything except what is deemed as "New Country" those Boy Bands, or those who lack talent like Britney Spears (not saying there is anything wrong in someone enjoying those since everyone is entitled to their own taste/opinion).... If anyone loves those genres that I personally detest, then by all means please feel free to do an album-a-day regarding them... Perhaps I might overlook my strong displeasure towards them..cast them aside and be willing to check them out.... hey.. I might even discover something positive about them....
I could see those avid listeners of Punk post rare bands that most (including myself) arent aware of.... The same with those who are heavily into metal/prog-metal...or those Blues aficionados have their opportunity to shine... Also.. there were times in which a participant during their week stunned me by posting an album that I least expect they would and just heavily appreciated that since it gave everything an added dimension....
Anyways.... I notice that 2 (1 included myself) had voted "Yes" when I initially posted the poll, and then 3 (phillycard and Brandon_Webb seemingly being among those 3) since have voted "Yes" today..... That's an excellent start and I could begin to structure a set schedule.....
IIRC... Pariah, Oran, Chaplin, Rivercard, Bendcardfan, AZCB34, jw7, FischerKing, and Ryanwb out of those who participated in Album-a-Day previously still frequent/post in this forum, so I am wondering if any of you would like to do so again?
We could possibly begin w/in 2 wks and if you're doing Movie-a-Day (like myself) we'll prevent anyone's respective turns on both from overlapping (that would be quite the task).....
Well.. w/in 2 wks would include the July 4th holiday, so perhaps if someone is willing to do a somewhat abbreviated wk or just post 2 albums of their choosing on their 1st day....
Brandon_Webb, you could go 1st if you like... if not then I will.... it's up to you....
