That doesn't make it right or mean I can't argue it.

Naw! It's all about the writing and the arrangements. Back-up bands usually have more instrumental talent than permanent band members. We don't praise them. When all's said and done it comes down to the quality of the music and that's rooted in the quality of the ideas.

Aren't you the same guy who used to rant about how horrible Nirvana are all the damn time?

Also you're wrong. Instrumental talent is very important, at least depending on the kind of music. In Nirvanas case it wasn't a necessity. But still, denying the importantance of knowing how to play an instrument is just shallow and stupid.

This is true. And I know we're all here to discuss music, so it's all good. I guess I'm just a lover, not a fighter (or even a debater for that matter). I agree with you in that I don't think just anyone could make the same "simple radio rock" that Foo Fighters make. Even though they might not be a completely original band, I think they have an at least semi-unique sound. When I hear a Foo song on the radio, I don't get it confused with any other bands. I know it's them. But maybe that's just me.

I think we should all just say "screw it" and go have a drink together.

The only time Dave Grohl was cool was when he played the devil in the D movie and when he was in Nirvana.

Decent pop-rock I guess. Not something I'd avidly go for, but certainly not something I have any complaints about, and definitely better than a lot of stuff on the radio nowadays.

Not disagreeing with you, just curious what other radio rock your talking about.

Wow... That's a REALLY bad cover of 'Band on the Run'.
