Weird, Atlanta is crazy for the Decemberists. Although it could be the Athens contingent's influence.

The White Stripes, Prince, and Queen.
A lot of people actually like Queen and just don't realize it. They'll dismiss them as "that queer band" but happily sing along to We Will Rock You and We are the Champions.

Also U2. Worldwide they have a lot of support, but a lot of my friends and family don't like their songs.

Agreed. Prince is a brilliantly versatile writer/composer/producer.

Queen has created material that was clearly ahead of its time, regardless of their bedroom preference.

"Say it ain't so!" Weezer rocks. I've seen Rivers Cuomo get bashed in a magazine or something about being a below average guitar player for his melodies in songs like "Undone- the Sweater Song" and "Buddy Holly". If you go lookin' up his tabs though, he can actually shred really well when he wants to, not that I don't think his simpler guitar sections sound good as well.
His retaliation was something along the lines that as lead guitarist it is not his job to show off but to lead the rest of the instruments in rhythm.

Whats your favorite Weezer song?
