34. Not sure how true that is

Although I have heard of the stereotype.

I'm definitely one of those people who likes everything and anything. My kids are astounded at my collection on my ipod and how varied it is. However. I've pretty much always liked hard rock and metal more than the others. It's what I listen to most of the time. I have many of the artists on your list. In fact, just downloaded Master of Puppets the other day (it was on sale) and have also been enjoying it (enjoying it again that is, as I used to have the cassette lol) although ..and justice for all will always be my favorite. I've been playing a lot of Guns 'n Roses lately too. Just discovered Alice in Chains...downloaded a few songs and wonder how I missed them back then...back in my junior high days I was known as a 'headbanger'...and it never did wear off

I'm pretty left wing. Vote mostly NDP here in Canada (social democratic party here in Canada). And I love hard rock and heavy metal
