American Music: The South vs. The Rest of the United States, Which is Better?
"Even my favorite music, punk, arose simultaneously in NYC, LA, and Texas."
Ummmm... some of our British posters might disagree with this!

I'm an equal opprotunity basher, che, but for the sake of this thread, the South does suck.
Country Music? :uke::
dirty South Rap? :uke::
what else has come out of the South??
TLC, Missy Elliot, Timberlin, the Buzzcocks, ZZ Top, Elvis, Otis Redding, Buddy Holly, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Limp Bizkit (the last two from here in Jacksonville). Shall go on?
Jazz, blues, gospel, folk, country/western and rock n'roll all originated here.

Actually, I haven't chosen anything. All of America's contributions to new musical forms arose in the South but one, House music (which is from Chicago). That doesn't mean that Chicago blues or New York jazz isn't some of the finest music in the world. Even my favorite music, punk, arose simultaneously in NYC, LA, and Texas.
I know, I know. I've voted for the south myself. Just something I wanted to comment on. this little coinsidence.

They can disagree all they want, but British punk arose at least one year after American punk.

Good lord, you admit to giving birth to Lynyrd Skynyrd and Limp Bizkit???

To be fair, the south's music is probably the best thing about it. Much better than their god awful food, that's for sure.
The cheeseburger originated in the South, and until you've had Southern BBQ you haven't lived, boy. This more than makes up for the lack of pizza.

Yes Buck, what do you mean?
I mean, taking together the entire musical output of The South (defined as per the normal american definition which I can't specify exactly, though I suspect the confederacy might have something to do with it) since it was first colonised by humans several thousand years ago to today, is it better or worse than the output of the rest of the country? What you value in music varies from person to person, I'd vote The South even if I didn't care about the level of influence.

My thoughts exactly.

You know, Sava, it's not whether or no you suck that's the question. The question is 'how well?'
