I don't think it's seen as sad to use personals to meet people. I can think of five couples (who are now married or getting married) I know who met this way. And didn't you meet El Barto through this site, Gypsy? I mean, what is the difference exactly other than you didn't nessecarily come here to meet a "date". Maybe you were just looking for people with like minds, which is (in many cases) all people who place personals are looking to do as well.

girl I know listens to the worst music on the planet, Spanish chart music sounds like the Muppets on PCP or something, and the truly weird thing is I like her more because of it. That said, she likes the Pixies even though she doesn't understand the lyrics, so there's a chink in the armour of Just Plain Rotten Taste there.

i don't know for sure but it was something african and it consisted in percussions and many people shouting.once i dated this girl who was into all that ethnic crap and she tried to convert me into the "real" music.i met her while doing a show in the university radio.she was interesting and all but i should have known better when she gave me to listen a cassete with albanian poetry read by some unknown albanian poet(in original language).with all the respect i hate that stuff.interesting maybe for a listen but listening to it in regular basis made me insane.

No, I completely see your point. However - I didnt mean it to come across that its my personal opinion about personals - because thats not how i feel about them at all. As you said, i think it can be a great way to meet like minded people - especially if you've just moved to the area or something like that. So, just to get that on the record - it was NOT my personal opinion

I initially attempted to only find like-music-minded girls to fancy, but then after 4 years of being single, i decided fuck with that, i'm cutting out over 90% of possible partners by being a music elitist snob. hence why i am now happily married to a wonderful girl who loves early michael jackson, bon jovi and wham! and MunChien, I agree with your first post, but disagree with your second....i love going to gigs by myself - means i don't have to worry about my wife having a crappy time cause she felt obligated to come to the show...she does come to some, but only ones she actually interested in.... whereas i love listening to lotsa variety of music - especially when travelling, particularly 80's pop music – couldn’t listen to it normally, but it’s fantastic to drive too.
In fact, I’m off to see Blonde Redhead alone tonite – it’s gunna be grand.

I must be lucky then. When I met my wife for the first time, she was listening to Neil Young, Nick Cave, The Blue Aeroplanes, REM etc. Granted she was also listening to lame bands like Jesus Jones and All About Eve but two people are never going to totally agree on musical taste. (By comparison I was listening to Pixies, Chameleons, Faith No More and..ahem...Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Slayer*, Testament etc)
* still think Slayer are a top band (lyrically a bit suspect)
Saying that I reckon 50% of our (my!) cd collection is avoided by my better half.
I also reckon we would struggle if she was purely a pop music fan. There would probably be a total ban on playing of music in the house. Now that would be a shame!!
I managed to play TOTY last night at tea time without any objections from my wife or my two daughters. I'm making progress!!

lol! i'm working on toty, she shouldn't object, she even owns the first fb album! lol! but she's not keen on me playing fb when she's around, she reckons i play it all the time, but of course i don't, she never lets me! lol! i so i have the entire fb collection on 2 minidiscs, that i listen to whilst travelling to and from uni/work...
we're listening to the franz ferdinand album right now (her choice), it's not bad, not *particuarly* interesting though, imo.

well i should mention that i grew up in Hicksville, New Zealand before moving to Bogan, New Zealand, so i was lucky to actually meet anyone of either gender who had heard of any of the bands i listened too.
My sister introduced me to all this crazy music, and i could hardly have married her could i.......or could i?

i feel your pain.i passed a period that the only female that passed my elitist screening were fat goth girls.music is important to me but not THAT important.and since good looking ladies in these parts like crap music i learned to avoid the argument.now that i think about it listening to alternative music is considered nerdy here.i guess that it was a matter of survival at the end since i never wanted to end up like that guy in "high fidelity"(and i don't mean ed norton but that guy that looks like moby)

ed norton!? you mean rob? played by john cusack? unless the greek version had ed norton in?
the bald guy did get a cute girl in the end, who was into the same kind of stuff he was, in fact he got her into something, but i can't recall what it was... maybe that's the way to go? conversion?

it really depends on what pulls your chain.... it's just that i don't consider musical taste as important as other traits in looking for a partner... ie breast size....snicker..
but regardless, i am very happy with my choice....

no. but it did have the highest murder rate per capita in the world for a couple of years in the mid 90's, so thats something. it was called Inglewood.

Dear Transmarine, apparently you've had better luck starting this type of topic than I. We haven't spoken since the ... uhh ... unpleasantness. LOL. Anyway, still a big ol' homo, but probably won't be able to make it out (get it? out?) to Coachella unless some nice gay FB fan lets me sleep on his gay floor for a night.
