I voted Blues, but I guess you all know by now that I like all kinds of music. It's always the same 12 notes, and when you think about it, it's amazing that 12 those notes (plus time) can be manipulated and massaged and tweaked into so many distinct 'styles', isn't it?

I love to play country, mostly new country like Travis Tritt, Rascal Flatts, Lonestar.

And ofcourse the songs of the guys who inspired me to pick up the guitar in the first place Garth Brooks, James Taylor and Kenny Loggins

  Blues is my thing

Well considering my nickname is 'bluesguy'. I do play hymn at church. My guitar teacher is always having me work on other types of songs - mostly pop stuff that everyone would know how to sing. Forces me to learn new chords & progressions - always a good thing

I play a pretty wide range... from playing in my church's high school worship band... to play death metal... I also like alternative rock, and pop. I'm not really into country, and I don't play jazz or blues only cause I don't listen to it in my normal day... so it doesn't really interest me to learn to play something that I don't enjoy listening to... I may learn to play it in the future but only in the efforts of improving my skill or style

After the old "western" music that most of us liked and after many years away from it, I've become addicted to the jazz and blues of the '40s, '50s and '60s. Not to mention roots firmly embedded in scandinavian music (but I don't play the accordion any more). I grew up during the down slide of the "big band" era, and used to play trombone in lots of gigs with lots of local bands. Never famous, though. LOL!

I too voted blues.....It's the what got me interested in guitar but these days I love playing anything with strong melody line.

That is what I love most about Kirk's lessons. I am always amazed by the way arranges and injects his own feel an keeps the tune so recognizable.

Delta Blues, Ragtime, Folk, and the ever confusing "fingerstyle" which can be almost everything.

A bit of everything..like the old classic rock & roll the best and not the heavy stuff. I do love Santana though, Rory Gallagher and Alan Parsons Project. Even if I can't play it!

Classical. I picked up the guitar when I was a teenager (many years ago!) and used to sing and play chords at the same time. Since I cannot sing anymore (except for the enjoyment of the coyotes), I decided to learn classical music and I enjoy it very much.

Yes you'd have to put me down for the Blues too.
The blues is great to play and great to listen to as well.
