Are The Beatles Overrated?

Rush is awesome, in my opinion.

Tool is my favorite band, bar none.

Music is subjective, period.

Edgy sucks cock and likes it.

I like Edgy, anyway.

The only reason you like Edgy is BECAUSE he sucks cock and likes it…but that’s why he’s so popular around these parts … a mouth is a mouth

YAHH STONES!!

Funny, I thought we were comparing drummer to drummer? Maybe two different types of drummers but none-the-less two rock and roll drummers.

And I personally like his mustache, it tickles my taint when he’s indulging the chocolate starfish

Gee, when someone says that apples are the greatest fruit of all time and someone else feels that not only are oranges better, but so are bananas, isn’t a comparison of the three more than relevant?

Haha, even though I wasn’t there I can totally picture what you wrote. How in the world someone can listen to an entire album of Rush is beyond comprehension to me. It’s almost as bad as listening to an entire album of Disturbed.

Rush is my favourite band, bar none, so I’m pretty biased on the subject.

I think Matt Stone from South Park says it best at the end of this video clip.

Nothing would be as bad as listening to an entire Disturbed album. If there is a hell, Disturbed is what’s played on the elevator ride down.
