"some" people love 3 of those, a LOT of people love SW, 99.9% of *musicians* love The Beatles. -- nm - mud Aug 18, 11:54 9
- I sincerely doubt that 999 out of every 1,000 musicians love ANY band, even AC/DC or Bob Dylan. Mediocre but famous isn't bad. It's worked for BTS. -- nm - David Aug 18, 11:59 8
  - It's not about fame, it's about musical innovation. -- nm - mud Aug 18, 12:01 7
    - Right? They're not just listed as favorites by other bands. They're mentioned as major influences. -- nm* - Dean Winchester Aug 18, 12:06 1

    - Famous band moves to India and discovers drugs isn't an innovation. -- nm - David Aug 18, 12:05 4
      - don't be silly. If you actually believe this, I can't argue with inanity. -- nm - mud Aug 18, 12:07 3
        
        It's exactly what happened. -- nm - David Aug 18, 12:08 2
        
        this is like debating QAnon -- nm - mud Aug 18, 12:10 1
