And thus I'm now reminded about how I never agree with you on anything music related.

Cream >>>>>>>>>> You.

i get fairly aggravated at all the crap floating around that still puts him on some ridiculous pedestal. i don't find his work remotely intriguing.
This is one of your dumbest posts ever.

I understand it's your opinion, but no fan of the genre would ever agree. You sound clueless.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

I can understand thinking solo Clapton is boring.

But not Cream. It's funny what can bore a person and what doesn't.

I mean Sam is a Can fan, and while they have some excellent stuff. I just don't get it, they're the one prog band hipsters (times I've used this word now OVER 9000!!!) clamor over and I think Aumgn is more boring, tasteless and pretentious than anything Rick Wakeman could ever cook up.

Peoples tastes are just weird. I mean some people seem to think it's a contradiction when I the prog fan call anything boring.

how so?

because i don't share your enthusiasm for outdated dad rock that somehow makes me a philistine? there are others here who share my sentiments about Eric Clapton, i don't understand how my distaste for his music makes it any less relevant.

perhaps i should leave this conversation where it is, you people seem to have difficulty extracting the objectivity of a person's opinions. fuck do i care if you agree with me.

Yes, Cream was Fantastic, everything else for the most part I don't care for. It's amazing that so many people on this forum including myself hold such an unpopular opinion of Clapton which means he must truly be overrated.

Gibbons sticks out like a sore thumb in this thread. Not one I would consider a noteworthy guitarist.

I thought about after I posted and figured this would be your response. You know me better then that, I know you better then to call your post dumb.

Here's my point: I hate a lot of bands that are popular here, I just don't post about them because it will only bother fans and like you said "what the fuck do I care if you agree with me" that goes for everyone of course.

What bothers me is that you posted that knowing it would just piss people like 2boo and me off. I acknowledged it was your opinion and of course you can think whatever you want (sorry for posting that condescending cliche bs)

As for the Dad rock comment; fuck you I am granddad now.

It's not about sharing our passion; it's about understanding it and not needing to say something that serves no purpose but to agitate.

Regardless, it's not a big deal and I'm sorry for calling you dumb, your still a top 10er.

I think if you find Clapton boring you have not seen his live performances. I even agree with you tha much of his recorded discography is quite repetitive, pointless, and boring. But that man can really put on a great ****ing live show. I mean take a look at this Crossroads clip from verryy recently.

sorry dude but that's about the worst example of proving clapton's worth that you could have chosen.

the whole premise of 'i shot the sheriff' was to rise up against the british colonists who were turning jamaicans against each other. hence the whole point of shooting the sheriff (the brit appointed to bring 'civilized' order to the island) and not the deputies (fellow jamaicans). clapton was some middle class white brit kid who desperately wanted people to think he was from the poor side of the tracks while enjoying the benefits of his social status ($$$ for drugs and guitars). this is quite possibly the most contrived cover song in rock music.

Hillary Duff's version of My Generation?

You do have a point though, never cared for Clapton's version of that song.
