In the immortal words of the Family Stone, "Different strokes for different folks, and so on and so on and scoobie doobie doobie."
I've always found DMB terminally boring, but it doesn't offend me that so many people love them. Likewise, you guys aren't into Radiohead, but I loves me some Radiohead. They haven't cared about "rock" per se for at least 15 years, they're just making the music that interests them - and, usually, me.
And several people in this thread referenced the Doors, who I think of as another one of those polarizing bands - people are either fans or hate them and I haven't run into a lot of people who are indifferent to them. I've long been in the "hate" camp, but I certainly won't waste time arguing with someone who enjoys Mr. Manzarek's noodling for reasons that continue to escape me
If you love it and I don't, or vice versa, it doesn't make me respect you less.
Hmm. Did I actually say anything?
