I would also dig Dave Matthews. Again, "DMB" is for (as Bruce McCullough says about greatest hits CD's) "housewives and little girls".

I'd argue with you, but I'm afraid of the consequences. Just kidding. I agree completely.

The Horrible Esthete Wrote:jen Wrote:Besides, who really gives a rats ass who takes drugs and who doesn't, in the end it is the quality of music produced. (whether you like them or not) Name one classic rock album that didn't have some sort of drug influence. Rather it be by the singer, the drummer, whomever.
It is all a matter of opinion, you two hate them.....WE KNOW....just move on.
A-freaking-men.
If it were not for the ability of certain drugs to get the creative juices flowing, the entire Beatles catalogue from Revolver forward might have sounded completely different. Hell, the same goes for almost every great rock act as well - Zeppelin, the Stones, the Who, the Doors.....PINK FLOYD....I could go on and on and on and on and on.
And if all that music could have been so different [or completely non-existent , for that matter] without such 'influences', our beloved HIP may never even have EXISTED themselves. Methinks that these DMB critics are incredibly naive to the 'exploratory' nature of most artists and musicians.
I respect DMB, but would not consider myself much of a 'fan'. That said, Chancellor and Beanmedic, you criticism is absolutely ridiculous.

Agreed. Most people I know refer to it as "The Other Mistake by the Lake", but I tend to call it Firetown.

I grew up in Southwestern Ontario and spent enough time in Buffalo to know that it's a cesspool (my apologies to actual cesspools), so I know what I'm talking about, thank you very much.
Calgary is a shit-hole? That's rich! That's like a Nickleback fan calling the Hip shitty! :lol:
Don't worry - I'm sure there are cities somewhere in the world that are worse than Buffalo. I've just never been to any.
