Are you a music addict?

Question

If so what qualifies YOU as one?

Answer 1

I listen to classic rock, country, rap, metal, pop, rap, hip-hop, 80s, classical, etc. I have two different MP3 players so that I'm never without one. I have a radio in my shower and I wake up to the radio, not an annoying buzzer. When I turn on my tv, it's tuned to a Classic Rock Music Choice station. I'll go to a concert, even if I'm not a fan of the music/group, just so I can attend a concert and listen to different music. I can never remember a time in my life when music wasn't a daily part of it. I went to my first concert while in my mother's womb (she didn't know she was pregnant, yet). I remember cleaning my dad's albums when I was a kid so they would sound better. To top it all off, I learned how to put a reel-to-reel together so my mom and I could listen to her "SuperTramp" reel (when I was 4).



I think that qualifies me as a music addict. :)

Answer 2

Yes

I play guitar, drums, keyboard, and sing constantly.

I know more about music then any of my friends because I listen to it so constantly.

There isn't a type of music I don't like, and I'll listen to anything once.

Right now I'm sitting in my school library in the middle of the day listening to music and answering this question when I should be working.

You name a band, I've either heard of them or will leave the conversation I'm having with you to go listen to them.

I am an official groupie of local bands, and can be caught at a local venue every weekend.

Answer 3

I'm totally addicted. I always have my iPod with me, and I just let my music play in my room when I'm not there. I also sit up straight in bed when a song stops and a playlist ends. Freaky.

Answer 4

Yep.

I've got music playing almost all the time.

Even in class, which..probably isn't the best idea, but it IS low enough that I can hear the teacher (who never has anything interesting to say anyway..)

And I fall asleep to it.

And I try to listen to as many new bands as possible.

And the record store people know me as a regular customer. xD.
