    It upsets me that there are people out there that think Jimmy Hendrix's version of Watchtower is superior to Dylan's.

    How do these people muddle through life burdened by their inferior opinions?

    If by "people" you mean "pretty much everyone who has heard both", then yeah.

    Dylan is a god-awful singer and a brilliant songwriter.

    It's really a moot point since neither hold a candle to DMB.

    o_O

    That like, 5 minute part where they just play the same thing over and over again, so good.

    makes me want to take my shoes off

    Did you sort out those crazy people who did not appreciate Hook by Blues Traveler?

    if i were in the business of sending people to death camps, "do you enjoy the music of blues traveler? would you play it in a public situation?" would be one of the few questions on the form.

    You are the wrongest wrong that ever wronged.

    i actually hate the spin doctors way worse than i do blues traveler, but i put them in the same bin.

    I don't understand the thing where you don't like an artist's music because he's an asshole.

    But this is probably a thing I've gotten over because AS A REPUBLICAN COMMA I generally think all artists are some variety of deeply wrong.

    I think Deebaser might have the most "my teenage years were the best" for music I've met in quite a while.

    Don't even get me started on DMB. Although, I like him more now that his star has faded some. Still can't listen to 99% of his musics. Might as well be listening to John Mayer.

    they're more dumb than wrong.

    like, who cares what they think?

    why would i think that someone who can sing/ act/ dance/ play an instrument would necessarily be smart about anything else?

    i guess if i thought their opinions crossed a certain line of terrible or malicious i'd refuse to support them on principal, even if i liked their music or whatever.

    Alice Cooper has a great quote about this:
    If you're listening to a rock star in order to get your information on who to vote for, you're a bigger moron than they are. Why are we rock stars? Because we're morons. We sleep all day, we play music at night and very rarely do we sit around reading the Washington Journal.
