want to be friends?

If you want to be my friend, I'll only add Gaians who share my interest in Celtic rock. Or the solo work of the guys I mention to the right.

The lovely merchant ladies often seen on tour

Say hello to these wicked lassies should you wish to sell some game items. A couple of real fine broads.
 

celtic rock - check it out!

Ever even consider the concept of CELTIC rock?

Mind blowing electric rock and roll with bagpipes!?!
Yes, it's true. And completely awesome. Musical geniuses, all of them!

I won't force it on you (none of that Project Playlist crap here) aside from the one song that fits in here from their myspace player. Press the pause button if you don't need to listen - I can't seem to make it notautostart. But their pic above leads to their myspace where you can really experience this band.

You can click the band's CDs below to hear samples from both of their currently available albums
and be sure to visit

rathkeltair.com

You're hearing "Pretty Too" right now, from "Big White Van"



Check it, my fellow Gaians:
It's not all about emo, you need to cheer the feck up eventually! Seriously, a well-rounded person has a variety of music in the collection. Open your mind to new things. Diversity is a good thing, isn't it? Never too soon to expand your musical library...

and the 'piper's solo CD:

Or if the Celt thing isn't your style, you might have grown-up goth parents that remember the gothy post-punk band The Bolshoi from the late 80's. If they don't, they weren't cool. The frontman of that band is in Rathkeltair and has his own new solo music too. More suited for those with an emo/gothy taste and find the 'pipes a bit much:

(all are also available on iTunes, just search for Trevor Tanner to hear samples)

I've decided to leave bigben2000's comment there on my page (although put him on ignore) to show the world how incredibly bigoted some users still are in 2009. As insulting as it is to use the term "gay" to define something you believe to be lame or stupid (to hundreds of thousands of people in this country alone), Gaia won't reprimand him for it. I'm sure his parents are proud.



He's welcome to enjoy whatever woman-hating, violent music he wants. But to call an entire genre "gay" and leave this opinion in a public forum makes me ill. Who asked for his opinion?

Are you going to delete this kid's comment? It's fine that he doesn't appreciate the music, but calling anything "gay" in reference to something negative is absolutely hateful and bigoted. It's insulting to non gays like me, no matter what his choice in music happens to be.
