I never lie about it, Im proud to be hardcore. I say that I listen to hardcore, freeform and gabber. Fair enough, freeform is a branch of hardcore, but its that good it deserves a seperate mention :p

its not such a hard concept to grasp lol - it'll probably slowly change over time..its just educating the masses
over here in england since 1994 our CD compilations have all been labeled things like
"Dance Mania" (no not the japanise one :P)
"The Best Dance Album in the world ever..."
"Dance Zone Level *"
"Dance Hits"
"Dance Party"
"On A Dance Tip"
"Now thats what i call Dance"
"Dance Anthems"

Never. I tell em what i listen to then of course have to explain what the hell it is, then when they finally realise they give me the old "you'd have to be on acid to listen to all that stuff". Pfftt you just be quiet and scuttle on back to your wonderful R&B flower.

Im into all styles of music. I tell most people im into and produce electronica. But i sometimes say hardcore which normally gets a polite laugh which is fine cos hardcore imo is about havin a laugh and having fun and any musical style shudnt be taken too seriously. Its there to be enjoyed. However if people deep down are thinkin 'hardcore? Wtf who is this guy?' its there problem int it and theyve got a closed mind and probably have some deep hidden secret that makes them more messed up than the rest of us. Live hardcore and love it. Ha ha what the hell

we have a huge lake and some really nice mountains, so if boardsports are you thing, kelowna is a pretty decent place.
the scenery is nice around here, but it's an expensive place to live. i suppose the same could be said for anywhere though.

Nope, I just tell it as it is.
What does really grate on me though, is if I say "Hardcore" they will reply with something like, "Oh, like Scooter or Cascada?". This usually leads to a 5 minute explicit rant where I'll explain exactly why they are wrong. There is nothing worse than people out there who claim they are "total hardcore", yet cite chart dross like Cascada or Basshunter among their favorites.
