jackhammer - There are a lot of people on here with expansive taste in music, but in my opinion jackhammer wins by a longshot. He has a band or artist for every occasion you throw at him. He is willing to listen to recommendations he has never heard of. He has the taste in music I want to have.

Freebase - The quickest witted here. No other member's posts make me crack up as much as his.

mojopunk - An all around nice guy with a great taste in music. Easy to talk to and open to all kinds of stuff.

TheCunningStunt - Like I said, always on here. Also the most persistent music lover I've ever encountered. It is ok if progressive rock doesn't do anything for you, man...I promise, there are other people out there who don't like it.

AwwSugar - Haven't talked to her much recently, but I know she is out there. Really nice person and the most personable person on this forum. Person.

right-track - Feels like the dad of MB (though I have seen him tear into people he doesn't like...always entertaining).

Number9 - Has my favorite taste in music on here second only to jackhammer. It is different than mine, but she seems to know what she likes and goes for it. I respect that a lot, and I always check her lastfm when I'm in the mood for her taste and need something new.

Paloma - The most entertaining member here. I love when I see that she has posted in a thread, it usually turns out to be very interesting. Even if it is just her saying she hates a certain album, the way she says it cracks me up.

Vegangelica - I feel like she puts more thought and work into her posts than any other member here. Sometimes that results in more of a quick skim rather than an in depth read, but I still admire her mammoth posts.

CanWllCorfe - I'm not even sure if I got his name right there. I'll go with it, I think everyone knows who I am talking about. He wins the quirkiest taste in music award. Quirky in a good way, though. He really knows his black metal and ambient electronic. I love atmosphere in my music, and he often knows just the artist to look into.

Zero1986 - According to his lastfm, he loves shoegaze as much as I do. That is good.

boo boo - I feel he is often the victim of the toneless text world we are trying to talk to each other in. Sometimes it is easy to infer a condescending tone even when none was there, and he picks up on it all the time. It does result in some pretty entertaining arguments, though. Part of the holy prog triumvirate.

tore - Second in the holy prog triumvirate and a fellow biologist. He produces some of the best discussion worthy non music threads out there.

Anteater - Third in the holy prog triumvirate. All I need is boo boo, tore, and Anteater and I don't think I will ever be short of prog in my life. They know their ****.

sidewinder - I don't know a whole lot about him, but my impression is working guy obsessed with music. I myself have a job where I am able to listen to tons of music, and I think he is the same way.

Janszoon - I feel like our tastes in music are tangential to each other, but not quite compatible. He seems to enjoy some of my recommendations and I enjoy some of his, but there are quite a few areas we don't agree in. This is a good thing though, I enjoy talking to him.

Urban Hatemonger - His comments can get old, but for some reason I always feel like I should be working for his respect. A response about an album I've been liking one way or the other can make or break my day. It's weird.

I'll get to the rest of you later. Unless I don't like you. Then you know....
