Immersing in one band one at a time and then another- anyone do this?

    Sometimes.  I find lately that I immerse myself more in genres or eras.  Currently it’s alternating between jazz/swing from the 30s and 40s and R&B and Delta/Chicago Blues from the 20s to the 50s.

    I just thought of this thread as I'm going through a big Jack White phase (solo, White Stripes, Raconteurs, Dead Weather).
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    Maybe not one band at a time, but often a different handful of bands at a time.  Some bands can overlap phases, and most always get some sort of return until they work their way into the normal rotation of everything.  This is often influenced by my concert schedule, too.
    Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 25

    Every now and I'll come across a thread and think, "I wonder who started this one..."  and then see it was me.  LOL, Mr. Short Term Memory.  :lol:

    Always. All about dub reggae for the summer. Got sick on the beatles for a bit. Blasted my ears and mind to bits on the dead Kennedy's. Short james brown kick. Its natural. My musical mood changes all the time. Maybe its partly a seasonal thing and partly what I find at the salvation army that kicks it off. Played the smiths pretty hard for a while lately.

    If you need to talk to someone after or during your listening of the Cure I'm here for you.

    This must be awful and I don't want you to do something drastic...

    Nobody willingly listens to The Cure, right?

    I do Bedouin Soundclash or Jack Johnson radio during the summer, Misfits radio while riding my bike and James Brown and soul whilst cooking.

    On reflection I do it too...

    been listening to Aussie band You Am I a lot lately and before that Tool. I seem to just get in a ‘zone’ with a particular band for a few weeks / month at a time.

    I was just thinking about the first time I immersed myself with one band.  It was the Beatles when I was in high school.
