Preform a song of mine to the one I wrote it about... hoping it will turn up.. nicely....

[VirtutiShell]

This time next year will be a better year.....

....but for 2012 and music.. I just wanna go to more gigs (find the time and the money) and when going to festivals to still have the energy for the final night (of a 3 day festival - I'm starting to wish my fav bands play the earlier days - a sign I'm getting old), yeah so although I do exercise I need to get fitter....exercise routine here we come....well after tonight that is...

Have a good one all!

[CensoredSounds]

I guess I already am a "connoisseur", although I'd never call myself that. But I'm discovering new music and new genres all the time, so that wouldn't make much sense as a resolution. But you're right, fuck it's about time I learned to play guitar man.

[Greenslime300]

Nail Everlong on drums and cover it with my band... that song is my nemesis lol

[yoonafan18]

i want to keep up with all the episodes

[mozzadagozza]

the goatee looks cool, kinda look like Huey Morgan :) I plan to listen to a new album everyday, and see Foo Fighters! AT ANY COST...

[Random633]

Try to convince more people to shift their interest towards more younger artists. It doesn't work if the only albums rockfans like to listen to are works from old bands. That's why it's dying out. Both The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters and Radiohead released below-par records this year. But why are they in every single Rock Top 5 I've seen? They're just selling their name at this point.

[crimsonblood1221]

Starting that blog with my best friend, if everything goes well. We've got great ambitions, but terrible work ethic. That'll change though

[alwednesday]

buy more vinyl and expand my pathetic/sparse collection.

[NorskRobot]

I will try to start a band! :) But the end of the world in 2012 is bullshit, I bet the people got tired of counting

Maybe and hopefully get signed with my Alternative Rock/Grunge Band!

[skuxolicious]

Grow the goatee darker if you want it to look better.

[NelsonsTrousers]

My girlfriend and I haven't taken on resolutions this year, so much as a bet.

Whichever one of us loses the most weight by April buys the tikcets to the Download festival.

Which will be our first ever gig experiance. Should be good!!

[cottonballbullets]

[Comictoons321]

Sammy, I'm gonna see Black Sabbath for my first concert this year

[kassemir]

1. Get more into the jazz genre. After listening to the new Eric Clapton and Wynton Marsalis album, I really wanna do that.

2. Actually learn to play the blues harp, been having harps laying around for six months now, and still haven't made an effort to try and learn it properly.

3. Try to do some jam sessions.

Yeah, so three resolutions, guess I'm going to have enough on my plate :-D

[howardmoon1234]

1. Finally see Radiohead live, even if I have to go to fucking Germany.

2. Play live. Somewhere. Anywhere.

3. Get a band together. It's hard doing solo stuff when you can't sing for shit.

@RockItOutBlog Sammi, I think you should grow a "Scott Ian type" beard. Do you think this type of facial will suit you?

[02justSAY]

This is sort of embarrassing but I've never been to a concert :( so my new year's musical resolution is to finally go to a concert (I live in f***ing L.A. It should be easy enough). Also, hopefully go to a music festival.

[guitar19951]

[MetalLeg73]

To learn classical guitar, been playing electric for a long time so ready to take it on.

[TheSotYfan]

1st resolution: Be more aware of the albums that come out so I can listen to them and know most of the albums that end up on the best of 2012 lists and discover more bands.

2nd resolution: Start a band. That is something that I have wanted to do for quite some time, but I never really tried to find people to play with. I have recently started writing lyrics for some songs. It's a start!

3rd resolution: See more shows than this year even though 2011 is the year where I have seen the most shows.

My resolution is to see almost double the bands I saw in 2011, and I already have tickets to see Tool, Gigantour, Black Keys, and many different bands at Edgefest (Billy Talent, DFA79, Silversun Pickups, and more), so I'm off to a good start!!

[xxxWolFangxxx]

im going to listen to more different types of music and also start singing

[alternativeware]

I know what you mean I used to be all about electronic music in the 90's with Sash! but then entered nu metal with Deftones, then went old school with Iron Maiden, tried other stuff with The Cure, Leonard Cohen, John Coltrane, Joe Cocker, and well right now I don't know where my musical taste will get me to, but it's awesome.

[METALLICA848]

[kkwillsaveus]

Sami been wondering, used to be a man of Floyd, Radiohead, Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Aic, R.E.M., the Smiths, but lately I haven't listened as much because I sort of thought they were part of my negative lifestyle of being overly contemplated. Do I go back to them for their value or seek out some happier music?

[maalbe987]

@kkwillsaveus If you enjoy listening to them, there's really no reason to stop. Though it never hurts to try to expand your musical tastes.
