yeah, whatever gets your blood pumping, I guess.

Although, rock music induces and encourages screaming almost as a form of audience participation.
Classical music has been around for hundreds of years and, much like fine art, tends to draw a more contemplative crowd... I think that's it...

What do you say, though...
