Now that's a bad idea if ever I heard one. That album sounds like them trying to do Bruce Springsteen, while Bruce Springsteen is fucking Dave Matthews.


If anything, go with Binaural or Yield.

*twitch* You make it sound as if that record from last year was what Dave Matthews actually threw off the tour bus. So noted. Yikes.

EDIT: I just realized that comment might sound insulting. It's not meant to be insulting...I just know what you like.

I'm amused by the thought that you think you know what i like based on a few internet conversations. It's right up there with your apparent penchant for seemingly being predisposed to dislike something based on what the fan base is like.

Can you not see the humor in this?

Hey! I've been posting for coming on a year...and read the forum for a while before that to get the feel. I'm like kerble...I remember stuff in great detail.

I've been watching you...I also know your friends, D.J....

It's a lot more straight up "rock and roll radio."

I judge music for what it is, not the fan base...though when I'm reaming a band, I guess I often find myself attacking the fan base. That's a bumpable thread right there...

Uh huh.

Yes...I know your tastes vary wildly...from hair metal to Braniac.

minotaur, dr. awk, no offense to either of you,

but having skimmed over your various posts at each other, you two are no longer allowed to acknowledge the existence of the other on this forum.

the rest of the forum has been subjected to some of the dumbest shit ever when you two get to talking. it's not funny, or insightful, just tedious.

again, no offense to either of you, just forget the other exists. don't even read the posts.


and to bring it all back home, STP: crap band with too few and too far between not crap moments to even merit one waffle. STP=crap.

Bollocks! Not crap and I don't even feel the need to justify it.

yes this is true - haviung spent 95 - 00 making albums that really could not be called anything other than great fucking rock records (that would make everyone stop hating them so much), they made avacado which is the most pathetic thing i think ive ever fucking heard. do not listen to it. so bad. anyone that says that record is good is a fucking dick.

I'll take your suggestion "under advisement."

Battlestar Galactica has taught me that's code for "i'm not going to listen to you."
