I've met all my really good friends through our bonding over music.
I knew a dude who was completely into classical music (Beethoven and such) and then I showed him Harry Partch, The Residents, Captain Beefheart, etc and it blew his mind. We became best friends!
I knew a hardcore Christian dude who I was friends with and I turned him onto Lake of Dracula and a bunch of other Skin Graft bands and we became good friends.
One of my good friends, I met him through our shared love of Babyland...
I started burning my girlfriend cd's before we dated, about 5 1/2 years ago... Le Shok, Servotron, Polysics, Causey Way, all kinds of good shit... and I think that's what finally made her realize how cool I am (to her. Disclaimer: I'm not actually cool).
So, yeah, music has really helped me in a lot of situations to make good relationships with friends and more.
