Some don't need Energy Drinks, they have enough adrenaline to be unstoppable.

Thats Exactly me man... No need of energy drinks, cocaine, coffee... whatever you use.
Music is enough for me to kick a thousand asses ! lol But its always better when you
do it with friends, in a show... after few beers and few strange conversations here and there.

haha...I used to be like that once...but then I got fed up and decided to be passive around others. It's not a good idea to have EXTREME FUN when you have a few friends who don't even enjoy the same type of music you like.

Stop the Mayan pyramid quite.

People who study music have too much time on their hands.

Well.. I don't force my music upon my friends or people who don't enjoy it. So that is not really a problem with me Lol.

You know what I mean.

Alright, 'cause you were making it sound like it was a bad thing, having too much time on your hands. I, for one, am glad that many musicians had too much time on their hands and made awesome music I could listen to. In fact, unless you listen to music only while your busy, listening to music as a hobby can also be considered having too much time on your hands.

It's a strange statement to be making, since we're on a music site, and most music is made when people have too much time on their hands. But I guess I can see your point. Those people who aren't musicians--who analyze music just for the hell of it when it doesn't help them get anywhere or do anything--there's really no point to what they're doing. Those are the people who have too much time on their hands and should be doing something else.

But then, who is to judge what kind of hobbies are worthwhile? Maybe you'll never make money by taking apart watches and seeing how they work, or by collecting stamps/seashells/rocks/CDs/MLP: FIM dolls, et cetera, but if that's your thing, there's no harm done. No reason for anyone to think it's a bad thing.

Does that include music critics too? I mean many of them don't even play music or have any expertise in instruments or music itself.

Agreed.
I think it just ruins the meaning of hobby in the first place if you think a hobby is not profitable "financially". I mean, we're going to do hobbies in our leisure time for pleasure and not for a wage or any other forms of remuneration, in general.

I'm enjoying the music extensively. I am trying to "understand" the music (like, what make this band so good?), and if I'm buying the album, I'm following the lyrics by reading the booklet, looking at the artwork and so on.

Hmmm that is an interesting question. I guess it depends on the purpose of me listening to a song (or album). If it is artistically inspiring then it needs to be something that moves me, I can put on loop and listen to repeatedly until I finish drawing/painting whatever the song has inspired in me. If its a long day after work and I just want to go to the gym and smack a punching bag around, then i'm more focused on the tempo. I wont really care about poetic integrity or music ability as long as I can turn off my mind, turn up my adrenaline and go at it. Though yes, music originally was a form of science/ math I think its more base nature tends to be more appealing.
