I was trying to keep up with compiling a list of other performers
people in this group listen to, but it had gotten so big and was growing
so fast that I finally realized I would be covering the entire stock of
the rock section of an average record store.  I knew it was really
getting out of hand when someone added Hole to the list.

One trend of note: Hardly any Country Music fans (Hooray!).
Also, little/no R&B, Rap, or "Easy Listening".
Not much folk or Irish, not enough Blues.

Of the few classical composers thrown in, I was very much surprised that
none of the "tone poem" composers made it.  If ya like KaTe, ya oughta
like Debussy, Respighi, R Strauss, Ravel, Stravinsky, etc.  They weren't
into that structured symphony thing.
