I've been reading QC for a while now, although I only really started raiding the archives within the past few months. It's been wonderful.
While far from the only thing that drew me to the strip (it was mostly the rampant snark), I have a certain sympathy for the blatant music-nerdiness of the strip, especially early on.
I'm a Troper. Don't hold it against me. Please.
That's it, really.
