I agree that the role music plays in one’s life makes a huge impact on how we relate to it. Do we have the time or even the desire to find something new? Are we so bored with the past and apathetic about the future that we stop caring? It’s amazing how we can go in and out that way sometimes.

I read and really liked your article. I completely related to it. Even the part about Ned’s Atomic Dustbin (no, it wasn’t just you)…I love that band!
