Back then, yes. Now days, no. Passion was fairly incredible too (so was Leftovers). After that it was all wank.

They always looked like they needed a shower and shot heroin, hair bands typically looked like they spent hours on their hair and were more about the skirts then their music.
Pretty much validates my point about them not being very talented. Winger was, and is still good live.

I bought "Where The Wild Things Are" and couldn't get through most of it.
