I had a giant Hartke bass amp for years and it sounded fucking awesome.

sheet music in tandem with goateed guitarist sitting on a barstool wearing flip flops or sandals.
electric-acoustic guitars, unless they are played by P.W. Long or Bob Mould.
two reissue late 1990's Gibson SG's in the band, in matching colors (usually Oxblood red), played through Marshall JCM800's or 900's, with the matching Marshall 4X12s. Generally there will be chained wallets involved and octave chords. In 50% of the cases the Marshall logo is broken or missing and there's a hole in the grill cloth.
Any Behringer equipment.
Harmonica headpiece (except one worn by Neil Young)
Jorts on stage.
Ponytails and goatee combos on males.
Band name in duct or gaffer's tape on bass drum head, with a far from circular, hand cut hole off center in the middle of the drum. Sure sign the drummer has never tuned a drum.
Stickers on Bass Drum head.
Remo Pinstripe heads on all the drums, including the snare.
Rototoms.
Crash cymbals under 12"
Steinberger bass.
PRS guitar with fancy pearl inlays and humbuckers.

I saw them at Villette sonique. For a while I didn't know if I liked them or hated them. They were sloppy, not even playing together sometimes (it wasn't on purpose at all). Eventually, I think they suck. Yeah, I hate them.
You hate a band that you can't even make your mind up about? "Hate"?
Way to go!

Paging choppy...
What, you really want me to put strap locks on my $125 bass? You can just buy 'em for me, ass.
Actually, no, i was paging you to correct BadComrade on this erroneous entry to this list. Ass.

This is so far from correct, or even making sense, I don't even know what to say.

Ok, they aren't that bad. I have the right to have a bad day at work, haven't I?
It took me a while to decide whether they were brilliant or annoying. They would have been better playing a EGC Standard. What's the big deal anyway? Are they any friends of yours? Why are you so uptight?
