New Music...current stuff you like

[Rockport24]

Been listening to the new John Mayer CD, first half is pretty good, then goes down hill. I'm a fan though
some other good new stuff out there:
Shinedown
Alter Bridge - haven't release an album in like 2 years, but it is basically Creed without the a-hole lead singer, and they are like 10 times better!

I was going through some old papers this past weekend and came across some stuff from the early 80's when I went "clubbing" every Friday amd Saturday night.
I used to see plenty of punk rock/new wave/alternative rock bands.
Some I have on CD, some have been lost to the ages.
Some of my favorites are Private Lightning, The New Models, Face to Face (with Laurie Sargent), Ministry, The Zone, Depeche Mode, Duran Duran.
Then I began mellowing a bit with some REALLY eclectic musical tastes: Screaming Jay Hawkins, Bootsie Collins, B B King, Squirrel Nut Zippers.
Now I relax with sonme Johnny Cash, any number of the "Country Cavalcade" music stars (Patsy Cline, Conway Twitty, Hank Williams Sr.) and some local bands like The Spurs, The Cranktones and The Coachmen.
Some might say my musical tastes are "all over the place", but I have never been pigeon-holed into one genre of music. I really do like just about every type around (except rap - to negative/violent).
