Furry, I like. Funny is better. Furry and funny, a winning combination. As far as a particular instrument or style, that isn't as important as a deep feeling for the music, and not such a deep feeling for how wonderful he believes himself to be. Confidence is nice, arrogance is icky and unattractive.

The problem with musicians who've been gigging for years is that they're often so accustomed to having members of the opposite sex flop eagerly all over them they've sometimes seen and done everything -- or seem to have. I hate feeling like "the next one," just one more willing female on a long, long list. Know what I mean? So someone who isn't too world-weary is a magnet to me.

Healthy is attractive, too. The older we get the less attractive those bad-boy habits get: smoking, drinking to excess, promiscuity. When we were in our 20s, they had a certain anti-hero glamour. Now, I can just imagine the respirator just over the hill...

Playful, smart, kind-hearted and passionate about all different kinds of music pull me in on the tractor beam...the particular instrument or musical form isn't important (Ok, ok. It'd be a huge stretch for me to be attracted to a rap singer because, a.) they're children and b.) the music is usually so misogynistic and unmusical.)
