This Onion article is hilarious and pretty much sums it up…
I have a friend who hates the Dave Matthews Band because Dave Matthews named it after himself.
Does your friend also hate the J. Geils Band, the Steve Miller Band, the Alan Parsons Project, and the Max Weinberg 7?
The Jimi Hendrix Experience?
No love for Jimi? Come on man!!
Regarding DMB - I have always respected the musicianship but never liked them - very blah to me…
Always trust the judgement of a Nibblonian.
I’ve heard the Dave Matthews Band are much better than they sound.
Thankfully, I was never into DMB… mediocrity at it’s most mediocre.
I’m sure she doesn’t. Otherwise, how could she be inconsistent?
Presumably Jethro Tull and Uriah Heep are acceptable. But what about Alice Cooper?
Hee hee!
That’s it exactly.
Jethro Tull and Uriah Heep are not named after band members. Alice Cooper sucks and always has.
Next question?
Alice Cooper isn’t named after a band member either. A band member assumed the name of the the band.
So, I take it she’s always inconsistent?
I don’t care for them either. I saw one of their live performances, didn’t care for it much. In fact, it was downright boring. Everyone else was standing and dancing, singing to the music. I just sat on our blanket (we had lawn seats) and wished he would lose his voice or there would be a power-outage.
Boring.
Huh. Interesting. But there’s a band dude named Alice Cooper? Close enough.
Maybe you weren’t under the influence of the right substances?
I can’t think of a substance I wasn’t under the influence of… suck is suck.
