    Hey now. I'm for real. Final Cut was the first album of theirs I ever listened to, and what encouraged me to listen to their other albums.

    Piper at the Gates of Dawn is different, but I ate it up when I listened to it.

    As for Meddle, come on. Echoes and Fearless are great.

    SRV for me is probably #1. DMB is there as well. Radiohead to a lesser extent, although I feel a lot of their support is from people who think they're supposed to like them b/c it's cool.

    1. Jonas Bros.

    2. Mumford & Sons (Alice Cooper was right, and people especially younger people think I'm weird for being a huge Alice Cooper fan).

    3. Coldplay

    4. My R&B pick -- Destiny's Child (I could never get into their music, when I was younger, most of my friends did)

    Alice Cooper was mostly wrong, and hypocritical... And ever so slightly right, due to terminology.

    http://www.deathandtaxesmag.com/202...rd-sons-rant-right-conclusion-wrong-evidence/

    I love well done folk/alternative stuff, and any genre that borders it. Well done though.

    I guess well done anything is good... Though as I've gotten older inline well done classic rock that Cooper alludes to less and less compared to other genres. I think I just have learned to love subtler great music as opposed to in your face stuff - be it rock, or obnoxious rap (as opposed to truly gifted, subtle, musically intricate, lyrically complex rap)... That type of thing.

    I have just created a list of anonymous people I never want to hang out with.
    If you don't get the first three listed, step 1 is load another bowl

    When you say bands you just don't get, you mean/ not your taste? We're talking about a set of preference here? Me personally, I can say the Country genre, I can't get into any of that stuff.

    Exactly. I'd rather listen to silence than EVER listen to a "country" voice. Yuck.
