Default Music Forum

I'm fairly new to the Ledge (at least this time around), but one thing strikes me as missing and that is a forum for non-fleetwood mac music. Sure we have the Chit Chat forum, but you kind of have to wade through the political stuff to even find a thread that might be music related.

I understand that people might want to discuss off-topic stuff here but I do think that it would be great if there was a forum simply for other music. Therefore should I wish to mention the new Jackson Browne album, I could do it in an appropriate forum without being lost amongst the discussions on Sarah Palin and religion.

Just a thought...

I kind of agree with you on this one. I think it would be a good addition.

I'm all for this idea!

My biggest problem: I listen to like 200 different styles of music

^ So we'll have no shortage of threads, then!

I think it's an awesome idea. People who like to discuss the Mac are going to like discussing other music they listen to. It'd be a hit.

Totally! ;D I have yet to listen to Jackson's newest album. That was the first concert I ever went to.

My musical taste goes from Fleetwood Mac-AC/DC-Slayer & much more. In fact, RNB, Techno (house or whatever you want to call it) & Schlagers are the only genres I can't stand.


Monday I bought Black Ice from AC/DC! It's awesome

Anyone heard anything about potentially adding this new forum?

Thank you for your Music Forum posts and we also appreciate those who took the time to PM us to share their thoughts and ideas about a new forum.

Although we understand that a separate forum would facilitate music discussion, from a moderation stand point, it is easier for us to keep things as streamlined as possible, by having all of the non-FM topics in one place.

We hope you will continue to discuss music in Chit Chat.

Thanks again for your suggestions.

I'm motivated by my duty

(just now seeing this)

You are welcome. I don't think it would be that much of a moderation nightmare, but I do see where you all are coming from.
