That reminded me of these guys, worst band I ever seen, not sure who they opened for, but they sucked:darbypitcher22 wrote: I wouldn't say they're the worst. Seen some really bad bands that opened for some major acts (The Answer, opening for AC/DC) that make you want to run and hide.
So no, not the worst ever, but certainly not everyone's cup of listening tea either
That's exactly my point. Tell me what Nirvana song you're going to be listening to at a wedding or little Ezra's bat mitzvah? Rape me?? I'm sure that's a great choice. As zerocool said himself, talk about your dancefloor clearer! I'm sorry zerocool, you're trying to convince me that Nirvana, one of the top GRUNGE bands ever, is overrated because nobody requests their songs at FAMILY events??? I guess that means that all artists you don't get requests for are overrated. Somebody go tell all the founders rap they're all no talent hacks!!darbypitcher22 wrote: Those bands are not usually the bands most people listen to at a traditional bat mitzvah, wedding, graduation party, dance, etc.
Those guys suck something horrible.Sonofanump wrote:That reminded me of these guys, worst band I ever seen, not sure who they opened for, but they sucked:darbypitcher22 wrote: I wouldn't say they're the worst.

I would banter with you Darby, but I have seen the bands you like. Keep listening to Poison haha.darbypitcher22 wrote:Those guys suck something horrible.Sonofanump wrote:That reminded me of these guys, worst band I ever seen, not sure who they opened for, but they sucked:darbypitcher22 wrote: I wouldn't say they're the worst.

And Nirvana is overrated, because, well, they're overrated. They're completely overrated, and in my opinion, sounded like something that crawled out of a dumpster
Great post right here, spot on. Look, I admit that I enjoyed some Poison tunes back in the 80s, but they are the farthest thing from a great band. To each their own, I obvious have no personal beef with you Darby, but Nirvana was revolutionary, Poison was cute, for a time.Strapping Young Lad wrote: Haha. You may like Poison, but they didn't exactly pave the way for anyone. If anything Poison was like our generations disco.
Punk was a reaction to that sort of shit music from the 70's and grunge was a reaction to the shit bands of the 80's like Poison.
What good metal bands exist today because of Poison, lol???? NONE. If anything they exist in spite of bands like Poison.
You say Nirvana sucks, and then say Nickelback sounds decent.ZeroCool wrote:+1gerb131 wrote: Nah Dave Matthews Band
actually nickelback sounds pretty decent. if you like one song you'll probably like them all because they sound the same. as a dj, i get a ton of requests for them.
Did I say that's where it was going? No.osudarby08 wrote: and so it turns into an everybody vs. Darby in regards to hair bands thread like they always do....Ill sum up the rest of the argument: Darby-Hair bands are metal! Everybody else-hair bands are gay. end of conversation lol
If we based the quality of music on requests at weddings and bar mitzvahs, the Village People are The Fucking Beatles and The Electric Slide and the Macarena are As My Guitar Gently Weeps and Ode to Joy.ZeroCool wrote: strapping- in ten years i have never had a request for a nirvana song. i am talking about all different events, not just dances. receptions, bars, weddings, jr high dance's, proms, reunions(this would be the one where i would think somebody would have requested their music), sorority mixers, christmas parties, relay for life walks, etc. not one single request and i do every gig so i know that there hasnt been any slip by. this is a very diverse mix of age group. sorry to rain on your parade. its just the experience that ive had with music and people that im talking about, not a bunch of what-ifs.
