I think the Eagles are more extreme and interesting than anything by Buffett. I can't quantify this, but I recall hearing something by the Eagles that was gritty in comparison.

(Still, you have a good point and I know I am comparing vomit to shit.)

Bumpus is worse than Jimmy Buffett.
How many times I have been at a street festival just praying as hard as I could to allah that he strike this Bumpus down and replace them with Jimmy Buffett, or if he is unavailable a Jimmy Buffett cover band.
I could easily sit and eat my ribs and corn on the cob with Jimmy Buffett songs in the background. I cannot do this with this Bumpus. Bumpus makes me want to buy an overpriced drink and hurl it at them immediately.

Ok, I may catch some shit for knowing this, but Garth Brooks' rock alter-ego was named Chris Gaines. God help a poor chap out there who was actually called that when Garth got that silly fucking idea.

I agree that the Eagles are pure shit. But that doesn't compare with Jimmy Buffett. I liken Buffett to Raffi for the white adult.

Lest we forget that horrible month.

I had the misfortune of being at the Saturday Night Live where Garth Brooks hosted and the musical guest was Chris Gaines.

It was, until this moment, one of my most shameful secrets. Now I have shared it with you. 'Cos I love you guys that much.

That's right. He did a rather surreal cover of the Jefferson Airplane's tune "Let's Get Together" filtered through The Youngbloods...sheesh I'd almost forgotten about that.

Dave Matthews is way worse.

Jimmy Buffett is terrible, but no one really takes Jimmy Buffett seriously, including Jimmy Buffett.

But the Dave Matthews tour bus unleashed a torrent of pee and poo water on unsuspecting tourists on the "Architectural tour of Chicago" boat. And his violinist is a functional Crackhead. That is interesting, to say the least.

Plus DM has no restaurant chain or shitty powdered Margarita mix to call his own.

I still think JB is worse.

Jack Johnson is in the running for worst new Buffett.
