When I say dilute, I'm referring to the fact that a lot of people go off certain bands when they become famous, because they get fed up hearing the band on the radio or tv etc. Quite often they defend their opinion by saying the band are not all that great music wise and start to look for faults in the band. I'm not saying you guys are like this, but just saying it as a general statement based on observation over the years.

So you saying they are mind-blowing save for the fact they weren't original. What side are you on anyway? ... nevermind.

I'm on your side as always
Led Zeppelin were mind blowing as well but not very original music wise either.

Amazing how somebody that knows jack sh
ite about rock music and has probably only heard a couple of songs off the radio by either band, can then make sweeping statements such as the above.
