This MMA community has many non-MMA threads already.  Music, Jokes, baseball, football, etc.

So, I thought it might serve a purpose to create a thread for all the other contributions to each other's lives that don't fit anywhere else.

Do you have something that would enrich the community culturally?  Maybe dance, comedy, nutritional, inspirational, arresting visuals?  But please let's keep this positive, and appropriate to the general public.

Maybe a video clip of a movie, broadway show, highly unusual, utterly creative, a cutting edge piece of information, a new computer application, or something that would make someone's life better or richer.

American Culture with respect to music is quite a vast Big Tent.  What some enjoy might put others into a deep coma.

Music acts like Hanson, Justin Bieber, The Osmonds, The Jackson 5, the Partridge Family, the DeFranco Family, Abba, and many more might not be my cup of tea, but if no one liked them, they wouldn't have made the many millions they did.  So, someone had to enjoy their music.  

Who's to say when music is too 'white'?  After all, didn't Berry Gordy build a fantastic company (and I'm talking Motown, y'all) that was specifically to sell black people's music to white America?  The Surpremes, Miracles and Temptations all did exactly that and I loved it more than any other, even to this day.

And that being so, who am I to criticize?

Pine trees?  No elegant elm?  No noble maple?
