Hi everyone, I have never posted comments about anything on the internet before. I've seen a lot of nasty, mean spirited and often vulgar content on everything from comments on YouTube to discussions about the worlds events on news sites. I was beginning to think active participation in any corner of the webs meant getting down or being dragged down to the gutter. I wanted no part of it...until I found the aptly named Haven Forum. I'd like to tell you a little about myself. I am an avid music fan. Without music I would probably become very depressed. I prefer rock oriented music in most of it's forms and my mission in the past few months has become to spread the word on great rock artists that are (mostly) not being heard. So far, I've sought that goal by creating a weekly chart I call 'The BIG 200' to showcase one person's idea of great music. My chart lives here: www.big200favoriterocksongs.blogspot.com/I've also added a simpler version to the personal charts forum on Haven. I just started a new thread at the indie/rock music board asking about your newly discovered bands. Here's where I live: I'm from the U.S. and live in one of the best parts of North America, Seattle Washington. We have an awesome public radio station here KEXP, which is the number 1 rated station. They play every kind of rock and more of what's not heard on commercial stations. That is unheard of in the States where the number 1 is always a commercial station playing either Hip-Hop/Rap, Top 20 Pop or Country. I'm looking forward to further participation at this wonderful site. Thanks for being here!
