[ron the dial]

Started out with country music because that's what everyone in my family listened to. Mostly listened to that on the radio. The first two CDs that I ever owned were Vanilla Ice - To the Extreme and MC Hammer - Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em. Grew out of that shit (although that VI CD is pretty hilarious to this day), and got into alternative music. Nirvana, Green Day, Smashing Pumpkins, Bush, etc. Then I hit the retarded phase of music in my life where I was into KoRn, Limp Bizkit, Master P, and other shitty stuff. Then I got into the whole pop-punk thing with Blink 182 and MxPx, which led me to listen to punk bands such as Bad Religion, Black Flag, Anti-Flag, Sex Pistols, etc. It was also around this time that I got into ICP and Twiztid. After that I settled into what I mainly listen to now: The Smiths, Brand New, Radiohead, Ben Folds, blah blah blah. I pretty much listen to everything, though, as I've picked up a fair share of metal and hip-hop acts along the way.

That's a rather concise way of summing it up, but I think that you get the gist of what I'm going for.
