Avril lavigne and the foo fighters are two different genres and appeal to different audiences.

Okay, once again you've managed to make a slightly relevant post that didn't really answer his question at all. I mean, if he/she really looked into it, I suppose they could drag out the answer being his post was so evil because you're a fan of them, but thats pretty weak reasoning.
i didn't think his post was evil, i never once said that.

Yeah, and Delonge and Hendrix are two different genres not difficult to pick the better musician though is it?

Did you even read his full post? He asked a question at the end.

No matter who I pick it's a matter of opinion. If you found someone else to choose the same answer I choose it just means that the person agrees with me or vice verse. Doesn't prove anything. nor is it relevant to the arguement about the Foo Fighters since Naes nor I compared them to anyone.

If you're referring to Naes, then yes, i read all of his posts in their entirety. And i didn't see a question.
And even if there were a question I am not obliged to answer it.

Might I suggest you calm down a little. :)

No, its not. Hendrix is obviously the better guitarist, talent isn't something thats subjective.

And that was more in refence to your logic on the chili peppers being a great band because they've sold lots of records. If you followed the arguement more closely you'd realize that wasn't about the foo fighters at all.

I think the Red Hot Chili peppers are a great band. but if you read through all of my posts, you'd know that i also said that they were overrated.

Its kind of difficult to get what you're saying seeing as you make a habit of contradicting yourself and making misleading posts.

the ability to judge talent is or is not subjective and varying from individual to individual.

I've said it at least once in this thread and several other times in another thread in the general music forum.
But the fact is you can not use the arguement that my posts are misleading on this topic since none of my posts ont his topic were misleading.
I'll make an allowance for you though and grant you the post where i said Nirvana is sometimes overrated. And i stand by that post as well.

I'm sorry, just because you feel the need to write out a novel on your opinions doesn't mean I have to.

Theres such thing as a factual opinion, i've said millions of times I can say *insert losing country here* won *war they lost here* doesn't make it right.

You went on about how great the chili peppers in reply to them being overrated, then you said you think they're overrated, which I never read. How isn't that misleading?

I believe you said this. This isn't a very decisive or opionated statement. I mean you just called their 2 most popular albums a tab overrated. And pure skill is not subjective. Anyway he was making a point, which is sales don't mean ****. Which is true. If you disagree don't tell me about it just go listen to your damn radio. Your ignorance frustrates me.

Raine you're dumb stop posting on here and go to school, you need it more than most and the best thing about school is the government pays for the first 15 years.
