meh. The second college I went to had a proper conservatory and all sorts of dorks like vanilla describes. Jackasses who would prattle about Aesop Rock and Wilco and some such trash.
Do I fit this stereotype? The only music I've ever played has been grindcore, I own acres of forest, have a buzz cut & literally red neck and I work for the park service & conservation departments.

Urban Dictionary: Muso
based on that description..... i am obsessed with music....it is the fabric of my life there are fairly unknown artists in my collection.....but i don't really feel that makes me better than anyone....honestly quite a few of them are a testament to what horrible taste i can have when the mood strikes when i meet somebody new and visit their house i do often "beeline" for their collection....but not so much to judge more for good conversation starting "As a sideline they will take up the acoustic guitar and then force you to listen to their "revolutionary" take on what music could be like. It will undoubtedly be dreadful and unlistenable." i fucking hate it when shitheads do this....it literally drives me crazy....to the point of my stomach getting ill when i walk into a house and see an acoustic guitar i hate dreadlocks and have had a shaved head for well over 15 years (although thats mainly due to bad genes ) |

Hah, I definitely fit that stereotype for Hip Hop, now you mention Aesop. Whenever anyone asks me the 2Pac vs Biggie question, I tend to reply with either Tyler or Immortal Tech.

I always figured muso's are like anti hipsters.
Muso's as far as I've been aware means people that are so into their instruments they talk about little else. The kind of people who play in their bedroom for months on end until they can play a Dream Theater album note perfect and argue online for hours and hours about who's the best bassist. That's my idea of a muso.

I probably fit into a muso category. I play a few different instruments, I study music and music theory, have often spent hours arguing about said music theory or who the best bassist/drummer/keyboardist/guitarist is (and the answer to those last questions in that order is Geddy Lee, Neil Peart and Alex Lifeson).

A muso over here is generally a musician and nothing more or less. By your description Vanilla, it sounds like London circa 1967!
