    MUSIC Questions..just for sag.

    Anwser me these questions three:

    What is the crappiest band ever?

    The 98 N*Suck Street Boys.


    What is the best band ever?

    The Beatles. As if I'd say anything else! Followed by Buddy Holly, Simon and Garfunkel, Led Zepplin, The Who, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Cream, The Beach Boys, and U2.


    What band/artist is seriously needing a punk upside the head?

    It's an odd choice, but I'm going to say Counting Crows. Everytime I see or hear that whiny boy dreadlock lead singer I have the strong urge to hit him.


    What's the most over-rated band?

    Madonna. I know, she's not a band but she's still severely over-rated.


    What's the most under-rated band?

    Cake. Good solid yet interesting modern rock.


    What is the worst song...ever?

    Garth Brook's "I've Got Friends in Low Places." I hold a grudge against this song because I had to play it for a marching band football game halftime show in high school.




    So what class did you skip?

    Crappiest Band Ever:
    Rush (that guy's voice could jam radar)

    Best Band Ever: Obviously the Beetles are the most successful, but since this is my own personal taste, I'll go with Pink Floyd.

    Artist that needs a punk upside the head: J-lo. First of all, pick a name. Second, pick a husband. Third, please pick a career.

    Over rated: I could pick a boy band, but I think they're fads, and I want to pick a group that's been over rated for a long time, so I'll pick Pearl Jam.

    Under rated: Toad the Wet Sprocket.

    Worst song ever: Blinded by the light. THE HORROR!

    Ew. C. I had a C++ class in college. Hideously boring. It thoroughly disabused me of the notion that I might like computer programming.

    Two Things:

    I've made a pretty good living off writing C/C++ code for the last decade or so. Generally you either like programming or you don't - the language you happen to use is secondary.

    And now for the comment I fully expect to get flamed for:

    I just don't get the Beatles thing. Yes they changed the world, and no, I don't think they "suck" or anything that drastic, I just find them rather boring. Maybe because I've been told for so long that I am supposed to like them. Just like I am "supposed" to like Zepplin. Again - they just never hit an emotional chord with me.


    What is the crappiest band ever?
    Name a Jackson - any Jackson

    What is the best band ever?
    It's more a question of bands I still like after listening to them for 10 years or so. Floyd, Berlin, Def Leppard, Elton John, and Hungernut would be a few that for various reasons have stuck with me.

    What band/artist is seriously needing a punk upside the head?
    A bit outdated but - Prince - Get over yourself already.

    What's the most over-rated band?
    Stones - I completely agree, Nirvanna (sp?)

    What's the most under-rated band?
    Queensryche - at least they used to be. I haven't listened to much of there newer stuff.

    OK - FLAME ON!


    BTW - Yes, I did just make up "Hungernut". I just wanted to make Tom think for a minute.

    :)

    Well, no wonder you don't appreciate The Beatles, Zepplin et al! It's all that Queensryche you've been listening to - it's burned out your sense of taste! :p

    Sorry, just kidding! You asked for a flame so I thought I'd give you one. :) It's ok, I understand, musical taste is somewhat subjective. One of my absolute favorite groups is Genesis (Tresspass through Invisible Touch). Tom makes fun of me whenever I point this out since as he said it's one of his least favorite. I'm not sure why I left them off my list before, so I'll add them now.


    As for computer programming I wish I did like it, I'd be making more money! My brother is a programmer and when he was my age he had already bought a nice 3 bedroom house out in New Berlin. I live in a little 1 bedroom apartment. Bleh.

    What is the crappiest band ever?
    New Kids on the Block

    What is the best band ever?
    Led Zeppelin (but I really love The Police, too...)

    What band/artist is seriously needing a punk upside the head?
    Backstreet Boys and N'Sync equally.

    What's the most over-rated band?
    Creed

    What's the most under-rated band?
    I don't know.
    Although NPR thinks that Supertramp was/is a highly underrated band, and deserves a fresh look...
    I'm neutral on that issue...

    What is the worst song...ever?
    Difficult to say. I have ceased listening to regular radio stations to hear music for the simple fact there isn't anything good on. And the music I do listen to is either A)10 years or older or B)way off the mainstream.

    I'd like to feel optimistic about new and current music, but it just isn't any good, and frankly it all sounds the same!

    Or maybe I'm just getting old... :p

    VERY cool song. Until now, I hadn't met anyone who even heard of it.

    Cool movie too.

    B Wing, I made a jailbait CD full of bad bands, two you include on your list. I love spreading the horror, I'll let The Great Pumpkin know you want one.

    I think Joan Jett is terribly underated. She still makes great music.

    Worst band: any of those who get made via TV. I think O Town was one of them, that whole American Idol thing, and now I hear Puff Daddy, or whatever his new name is, is doing the same kind of thing on MTV.

    Favorite song: Mother by Babes in Toyland

    Worst: anything Meatloaf

    Over-rated: I know it isn't a popular thing to say, but I just don't get the Beatles
