1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    What does that mean? They still have a relevant sound :p I thought the only relevant aspect is if people (more importantly: me :p) like it.

    Some music is timeless. Puccini can still conger up 2 million views on you tube with a single excerpt from a work written in 1898.

    I agree. But even that is kind of subjective. Opera haters couldn't care less if the lovers consider it timeless to name an obvious example ;)

    I have never found an opera hater. Most people who claim not to like opera have simply never listened to the wide range of music that it includes.
    When Zeffirelli made his film of La Traviata everyone thought that I was crazy to suggest opening it in the Haymarket London. However my venue recommendation committed the company and it went ahead. Fortunately for me, it broke the theaters box office records, but for my sins I was on sound control and had to watch it 700 times. Not a bad punishment. LOL
