I can appreciate art, and play music at a pretty damn good level myself, but still think that John Cage is totally wack.

I don't dislike all strange music - Satie and Poulenc are some of my favorites. But a lot of John Cage's stuff is... no longer music.

Like I'm sorry, but 4'33" is not music.

I draw a line somewhere, and a lot of John Cage's stuff is wayyyyyyyyy the fuck over the line.

Sure maybe it's some kind of art, but it's not music.
