Old ;-)

Yesspaz isn't what most of us consider "old," unless maybe you're 12. That's ok, it's awfully difficult to tell someone's age from their typing, nickname, avatar, or broken leg.

But definitely stick around!

Here's my (unsolicited) opinion on the matter. I carry no weight here and my opinions don't always coincide with those of the station manager's. Disclaimer disclaimer. Disclaimer disclaimer disclaimer.

I think some modern progressive classical would be nice in small doses. I don't mind hearing the Mozart here every so often, but to me it doesn't seem progressive at all. Maybe it was at the time it was written (but I seem to remember otherwise - it was just very good music that fit into the style of what was being written then) but nowadays (to me) it doesn't feel progressive at all. Kronos Quartet was brought up elsewhere, and while I'm not really familiar with their work, I seem to remember them mostly doing stuff that pushes boundaries in music.

Yeah, this is all subject to personal tastes. Most art is. As if the Moon is launching an attempt to confuse the issue, Sky's version of "Toccata" is playing right now.

PS - I'm not old either.
