superiority complex.
having spent a great deal of time lately on this little site called jamsbio, and searching far and wide for new, underground bands similar to the ones i already enjoy, and having found many, many, many, i've realized a bit more about myself. i am a dreaded music elitist. it's such an awful reputation to have, and brings about accidental condescension on people around who may not be as superior, or fortunate enough to know the things i know. honestly! my music taste is one of the only things i truly adore about myself; it's such a shame i don't know how to spread the ego around equally to all parts of myself, instead of concentrating it into one area that consequentially makes everyone around me contemptuous. sometimes i just wonder, how people can enjoy some pieces of music, how they can miss the fact that it really is awful, how they can not have heard of something incredible (that i, coincidentally, love). additionally, i spend a lot of my time trying to convince people to listen to such and such music, and they either adore or hate the recommending. in the same vein, it is not easy being a music elitist! when you hear of shows that these artists may be putting on, it can be difficult to find people to go with you, since many people have not heard of these secret musical treasures. woe is me, right? pah! i don't care. as long as i have my music for myself, that is all that matters. my intentions are good, and not to offend anyone. it is just the way things are.
