I don't think anyone here cares about pearl jam. I know I like them just fine, and would never have a problem with anyones favourite band being PJ. In fact, there are a few huge PJ fans on some other boards I go to.
I think people care about the blanket dismissal of entire genres because of a preconcieved bias, coupled with statements about having diverse tastes, while listing as examples several multiplatinum bands who are some of the most visible in any genre, let alone their own.
It just somewhat smacks of a view of the musical world that isn't exactly all encompassing, you know?
