Shall we play a game?
I thought to start a musical "This or That"game.
You post bands, songs, genre of music, members of bands or all you think that has to do with music. The person who has given what he/she prefers start an new question.
Hard rock or metal?

Cool idea for a game!
At this point I think I would have to say Hard Rock over Metal. Mostly just because it seems like the definition of metal has changed to include a bunch of really screamy shouty heavy modern stuff I don't enjoy that much (like Mastodon, Slipknot, Lamb of God, Ghost) where as in the 80's and 90's bands considered metal that I liked (Motley Crue, Night Ranger, Dokken, Cinderella & Mastedon) would probably all just be considered as Hard Rock bands now.
Ok, another This or That Question.
Guitar Solo or Drum Solo?

GUITAR SOLO!
To be honest, I am wowed by a drum solo for a few seconds and then get bored. If the guitar solo is done well, then those amaze me.
Banjos or Bagpipes?

Oh gosh Mandolin. The ukulele doesn't belong in pretty much anything except Hawaiian folk music.
How about a non-music related "this or that".
Hamburger or Turkey Sandwich?

MLT if the mutton is nice and fresh and the lettuce is crisp.
Blues or Jazz

BLUES! For me, jazz is boring. Oh, they are great players who seem to just get lost while playing their instruments. But, for some reason, the very fact that most jazz doesn't really resolve in the end and all the weird changes just keep me from being able to enjoy it. Blues might be simple, but it was meant to be a cure for being down in the dumps.
Ukeleles can be amazing. I saw a video of Angus Young playing "Shook Me All Night Long" on one. It was amazing! Besides, the real difference between the uke and a mandolin are that the latter one is double stringed making it sound fuller. The tunings are different, but they are very similar. I can play a mandolin now, but only because I cheated and retuned the used one I bought to that of one of my cigar box guitars. The tuning now makes sense and I could instantly start picking things out on it.
Potato chips or corn chips?

Oh gosh definitely corn chips. I mean who would want to put salsa on potato chips? (I would also pick the blues over jazz as well)
Corn on the cobbORCream style sweet corn?

Right sock as that is which one I usually put on first.
I thought this was supposed to be a “musical” game???
To try to get back on track after derailing...
Live concert music videos or official concept videos?

That was the meaning of this game ... a music game.
But we can start an other "This or That game about other things if most of you like that more.

This one isn't so black and white. Both have strong points and weak points. Some official concept videos are fun and engaging while some live concert vids are awesome.
One example: I'd rather watch Megadeth's Train of Consequences concept video rather than watching them play it live.
Bb or A#?

I always say A# when around only guitar players. I will refer to all sharps as flats for pianists so as not to confuse them.
Buy a guitar or build your own?

Oh gosh, buy a guitar. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have the patience to build my own guitar. Even if I could make it look half-way decent I'm guessing it would sound like garbage.
Speaking of guitars. Les Paul or Fender?

Studio album. Unless they get everything set up properly, a live album can suffer.
Keyboards and bass or just bass?

Both! Seriously I like bands with male or female lead singers pretty much equally. I also like bands that have both male and female singers at the same time (Fighter, Rez, Starship)
Saxophone Solo or Keyboard solo?

AIC turned me off really quick with the "Man in the Box" song.

American! The best of the 80s came from the USA and Canada!
Did I just praise Canada? Man, I must be loosing it!
See a band in an arena or in a smaller club setting?
