A tradsnob is a TRADitionSNOB...rather, I am stuck in my ways... ;) It's a
funny word we use when my classes get together...and no, I don't think it's
a lot of blather. The entire reason I wrote that was so that I didn't have
to get bi***y to people. You're right though, it doesn't concern a lot of
clarinet. Butin a way it does. I never openly stated it, but I have a
question and was trying to find the answer. Is a clarinetist more likely to
enjoy classic rock ro oppose it, because most rock doesn't involve the
clarinet. I mean, is a drummer more likely to like it, or a clarinetist. So
far I think the majority doesn't like it, but what does everyone else think?

shouldn't be so quick to assume I was stompiong on others oponions. I hate
people who do that, with a passion. I have to admit, I am a bit of a
tradsnob when it comes to music and such, but I am open minded enough to
look at things from more than one presepective. I was being sarcastic, but
when I got the impression that people were being, well, nasty towards what I
had to say. So, I went on the defensive. The only reason I am bothering to
explain myself is because I don't want anyone to get the wrong impression of
me. I am incredibly friendly, really a nice person. So.....
