Why don't some people like the Dead? I'll tell you why.
All their music sounds the same. Sure, I can hear one of
their songs and know what its title is; they don't just
photocopy the sheets. However, listening to a Dead song that
you haven't heard before is unlikely to be a very new
experience. This is even more so now, when they don't
even bother to write any more songs. I'll grant you that
they have a reasonable amount of talent with their
instruments, but it's nothing really awesome. It would
take some truly amazing performers to make such same-seeming
songs interesting.

Bye, I'm unsubscribing. Any flames I get will be ignored.

net.music.who, net.music.floyd, net.music.zappa, anyone?
