Who was the most influential musician to you?

AngelaKisses	Date: October 4, 2004 @ 1:08 AM I guess mine would be Edie Brickell, but that's jus cuz I think I might end up sounding like her...
moam	Date: October 4, 2004 @ 1:11 AM Well for a few years, I was a complete and pure Mansonite (I was obsessed with Marilyn Manson) and then I got into the band "Cold". They have been an influence with my last CD all the way. I their music I am also a big NIN fan and I love how he does everything and makes all his music by himself. Definately someone to look up to

Izekial	Date: October 4, 2004 @ 5:51 PM When I was twelve I was into Prince and Madonna, stuff like that. Then my aunt showed me Master of Puppets and it scared the hell out of me. Metallica, Pearl Jam and Nirvana were the first "rock" bands I got into, the groups that converted me... Nirvana was at the forefront, I think. It spoke to me on a more personal level, but I also loved Pearl Jam's superior talent and musicianship. Metallica was the muscle, and mindless power. I don't listen to these three bands much, but I won't forget them. After a very long time, I went back to really bad 80s music or fluffy pop, since it's actually just as hard to write something like that, but my own music is raw, primitive... I guess I'll never forget those times back in 92.

fanch-t	Date: October 5, 2004 @ 1:21 PM Joe Montana, the greatest quarterback ever. Whenever we are recording I ask myself, what kind of sound would Joe Montana put here?
imemine	Date: October 5, 2004 @ 3:06 PM I’d have to say Donnie Osmand, early Michael Jackson and throw in some Tiny Tim and that about does it! I suppose that’s where I get that “edgy” sound from. Interesting there Fanch, great idea to call upon the talents of the Comeback Kid for inspiration. I like it! Yep, I sure do!
moam	Date: October 5, 2004 @ 3:12 PM fanch-t: So random
Caelestis	Date: October 5, 2004 @ 3:32 PM Definitely Hendrix He just totally re-engineered what people thought was music
johnnygnote	Date: October 5, 2004 @ 4:22 PM Beatles Hendrix Neal Young Peter Gabriel In that order, sort of like phases in my life.
johnnygnote	Date: October 5, 2004 @ 4:23 PM Oh Yeah and Cat Stevens between Young and Gabriel...
