Other than that I am not part of a scene and no one is in my opinion. Sure people listen to music, go to the local show, wank over the local bands but I don't think that makes you part of a scene, just a fan of music.

I use scene to mean the trendy "myspace" scene if that wasn't obvious. But why does not sharing a love of a certain type of music make you part of a scene? Sure you can divorce yourself from it, but the opportunity is there as well.

Honestly as far as I can tell, every musical movement's just been a sham because deep down you're never going to admit that people like music in the same way you do, or as much as you do.
Also, something I've noticed is that every music fan is a complete faggot, so generally I try not to associate with them anyways and just do my own thang, it's a lot easier.

I do. I still experience it to a degree. I work with/have in the past worked with many musicians who are unified through their love of music and share the same political ideologies etc. In fact the scene I was familiar with through my job was one of the most diverse, but unified I've ever had the luck to be part of.
There's a difference between not wanting to admit people like music as much as you, and people outright saying they don't like the band they're paying money to see.
That's just because you listen to bad music dear :-*
