The bane of our existence at the GA Faire and a growing problem at many faires.

It's hard to sell quality handcrafted weapons when someone across the faire has cheap-shit, low-quality Pakistani-made daggers for $5 and swords for $10. Discerning buyers will know the difference, but they are too few.

Worst thing is, the importers pay a percentage of their gross to the faire owners (at GARF it's 40% of gross) for the right to sell, so faires will resemble low-class bazaars and flea markets more and more as time goes on.

The most embarassing CD in my collection might be.....Trixter.

Ooo! I own two of those. Trixter and Hear! Got them both out of $2 clearance bins at a used CD shop, and haven't listened to them in at least 10 years. You're right... pretty bad.

I'm not sure I can use the $2 discount bin as an excuse.

I like some Kelly Clarkson off the first cd. Incomplete isn't a bad song(my wife played it enough already though back when it came out). One of Damien Rice's cds is pretty good. I know somebody mentioned Sade, not bad either(one of my wifes fav), and some Shakira ain't bad, hehe. Then I like a lot of alternative rock stuff like Breaking benjamin, trapt, seether, evanesence, three days grace, alter bridge, some janes addiction, 10 years, and so forth. I can't forget Cherry Poppin' Daddies, they owned when i saw them live a few years back. I hung out with their drummer Tim Donahue for a couple hours and he is the biggest freakin metalhead, got me to check out a bunch of death/black bands(cause it was right around the time i was finally getting into the black/death stuff). I have to have something to break up listening to the new Soilwork nonstop, behemoth, pagan's mind, dream theater, mnemic, dimmu borgir, nevermore, arch enemy, these are the bands i have listening to most the last few months.

as far as owning "embarrassing" stuff...if you like it and you own it, don't be emabarrassed!

I have about 3,000 CDs. I'm sure some forum members would love to tear me a new asshole for being a big fan of....

Genesis- all eras. Hackett is a god, Phil is the man, and Tony Banks...
Tom Waits
Jimi Hendrix
Stone Temple Pilots- its diffuclt for me to honestly express how much I love this band!!!!
Strung Out- too punk to be metal, too talented to be punk!
TSOL- one of my all-time fav bands. I even appreciate those terrible "we wish we were GnR" albums.
New Bomb Turks
Agnostic Front
The Dwarves
Atmosphere
GZA
Disturbed
...this list could go on!

I'm a huge Andrew Lloyd Webber fangirl, and have been since age...11? Somewhere in there.

Not particularly embarrassed about it, though.

Most embarrassing CDs in my collection? H.I.M.: Dark Light and Razorblade Romance. Catchy sound, though I often feel that I should have on something Hot Topic related when listening.

I'll second loving stone temple pilots and HIM's dark light is great, I haven't given their new disc much of a spin yet, i need to. I will also say I like linkin park's first cd, had a few good songs. Also, I like one disc from Stabbing Westward, can't think of which one it is right now, i need to go look.
