Name a band who plays their instruments better. The next level up would be Pink Floyd.

you're just partial to classic rock....NEXXXXXT

Well more groups need to learn how to play like these guys do. Music shouldn't be a headache inducer.

socalgal Jun 6, 2006

hmm, YOU can say that, I can say that....but its not the case to many. Remember back in that day that form of music had their little brotherman in the corner screaming about that style of music be...

Well said. Just because a style of music isn't to one's liking, doesn't mean they lack talent. Talent is projected in different styles. For instance there's definately punk bands out there who c...

Beating on an intrument is not talent. My 6 year old could do that. That's like saying a bench player stacks up to a starter on a baseball team just because he can hit a ball too. For whatever r...

I'm saying the notes played by bands like Rush take more talent than notes played by Ska or whatever you guys call this genre of music. It's beyond who likes what at this point. Like whoever you want. But don't tell me Ska bands have an ounce of the same talent as Rush, Pink Floyd, Journey, Bon Jovi, U2. Those guys will always be remembered. Story of the Year and bands like that are easily forgotten. It's pub music, nothing more.

Lets use a baseball analogy. The groups I mentioned are like a class of player like Joe Dimaggio and Mickey Mantle. The groups you guys like are like a class of player such as Ryan Langerhorns and Dan Wilson. Dimaggio and Mantle are legends. These other 2 guys are regular Joe Schmos that no one will remember except a statistician.

And yes Ian, this subject is a big Pet Peeve of mine.
