It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: The problem with listening to good music constantly ...

Same thing happened to me last night and this was at a Jazz festival.
The first band (quartet) trumpet, piano, bass, drums, must have been the most boring jazz set I attended in years, all capable musicians but they played all their own compositions that where just so weak and monotonous,
looking around I could see that most of the audience was on the verge of falling asleep, after 1 hour or so (too long) the organiser of the evening asked them to call it a day as they wanted to carry on.
Then a young jazz singer came on, accompanied by a well known pianist, the first song "I tought about you" was swinging a definetely a change of mood, but it quickly became very apparent that the singer was just scatting too much, he obviously never heard of "Less is more" thus again the music became boring. Anyway I left at the interval, got home, had a glass of red wine and listened to some great jazz cd's (What a pleasure)
