i just find it hard to believe that anyone who knows music at all, GOOD music, can't appreciate my boys.
Well, isn't that a narrow-minded view? Just because somebody doesn't know mass-media commercial-band X then they don't know good music?
I liked DMBs first album okay, but one was enough. And even then it was overplayed. That's just my opinion, though.
I don't expect everyone else to share my musical tastes, but I also don't expect that anything outside of my range isn't "good." Go pick up some stuff by The Vandals, Louis Jordan, Download, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, The Smiths, Tori Amos, Underworld, Mozart, Miles Davis, Pantera, Ella Fitzgerald, Switchblade Symphony, Let's Go Bowling, Soundgarden, Blue Man Group, Depeche Mode, Snog, Orbital, Front Line Assembly, Wolfsheim, and Shubert, just to name a few. Then tell us/me what the definition of "good" music is. I'll bet it spans a much larger range than you know now. Even just now, I only hit a few genres.

seems like your mistaking DMB for someone else. they aren't a commercial band and are rarely played on the radio. secondly, this is the soap box forum and people are allow to say anything they want here. that's the point of a message board, to express one's thoughts and opinions regardless of other people's views. finally, shorty doo-wop is entitled to her opinion as well, so there's no reason to start attacking her for asking whether anyone else likes DMB. you all need to relax.

you're being way too defensive. i'm not attacking anyone's taste in music. i am a music lover -- ANY type of music. and i'm not saying you have to like DMB, but i am saying you can't deny that every band member is talented. DMB is not commerial, they never were. They are not your average Sum 41 band. I'm not a fan of sound garden, but i would never go as far as to say that it was the worst concert i've been too because it's all about appreciating the music and the talent. Sound Garden is not my cup of tea, but i can't deny that they are talented.
In saying all this, I'm not really sure why all of you guys are so upset. this started off as a playful/silly thread, and it turned ugly very quickly. I was told that my sarcasm isn't appreciated here. and truthfully i was shocked that a message board had the right to scold me -- to tell me that if my views didn't conform to the rest, i wasn't playing nice. i never would have thought matrox users were so up tight about the littlest things.
