I have very strange taste in music... I like everything from Slipknot to Sinatra. I would have to say my favorite band though would have to be Tool. They are one of the most musically talented bands around today and Maynard is such a talented guy. He does everything from Music and art to, making wine. I ordered a bottle of his wine but haven't had a special occasion to open it yet. Looking VERY forward to it though.
I am into:
Tool,
Iron Maiden,
Judas Priest,
Suicidal Tendencies,
Black Sabbath,
Mighty Mighty Bosstones,
Danzig,
Mozart,
Chopin,
Beethoven,
Frank Sinatra,
Breaking Benjamin,
Beastie Boys,
Toad The Wet Sprocket,
Johnny Cash,
Doug Stone,
Garth Brooks,
A Perfect Circle,
Boston,
and so many more. I could list them for pages and pages...

Love Tool. It's my humble opinion that Lateralus is the best album ever made.

Great album but so is 10,000 Days. I have been lucky enough to see them live twice and they are just as amazing on stage as they are on the the CD. I hope to catch them again so I can take my wife to see them because she is a huge fan!
Bach is complex. I'm not taking anything away from tool, but there are tons of equally and even more talented bands out there that don't get nearly as much recognition as some bigger bands. Anyone who was into the musical and mathematical complexity of 10,000 days should listen to Meshuggah and A Life Once Lost.
I used to be a big Josh Redman fan, Tumbler. I've kinda lost track of him over the last few years, but his first album was one of my favorites for a long time, and his 2-disc "Live at the Village Vanguard" spent a lot of time in my rotation, too.
I don't know if you have visited audiogon.com - but that would restore the fever...
Heh. Actually, I visited it right after reading your post. (For the first time in years. That's where I sold my BAT and Electrocompaniet gear, years ago.)

Going to go see Meshuggah Feb 1st or 2nd at House of Blues, never had heard of them before a few weeks ago when my buddy told me we were seeing them. You are right in the complexity of their stuff, the amount of notes and crazy timings alone blow my mind.
If you have 20k in your pocket that's burnin' a hole - I can help...
For $20k? A man can't even get a pair of Wilson MAXX's for that.
An audiophile I am not, so explain to me, if you would be so kind, who spends $50,000 on a set of speakers? I have done some light research on the speakers in question, I just cannot comprehend how they can be that good.
