Also, as a side note, just because you like a certain type of music doesn't always mean you have to play it. You may really like Sonic Youth, but if everything you play sounds like Peter Paul & Mary, than that's your style. You can fake SY all you like, and it may even sound good, but your musical soul won't get the full release it needs until you let yourself get down and dirty, pouring out whatever flows through your fingertips...

this is very stupid.
of course you can learn to play different styles of music. the only way someone would (in broad terms) like to sound like sonic youth and end up sounding like peter paul and mary is if said person doesn't know or like sy and only wants to try it to be cool and accepted.
