Well, there's a lot of canned music around that I could do without, that's for sure.

Even with no human music there would still be birds singing and crickets chirping.

Oddly enough, I've had a real need for silence for some time now, and spend very little time either listening to music or playing it. This is in stark contrast to a life which revolved very much around music and musicianship for the past 4 to 5 decades. I now have little or no reason to buy CD's because I don't bother listening to them anyway.

I don't know what the explanation is...other than that I am looking within more than outside myself for answers now, but that's how it stands.
