wow. you really need to work on your logic there. first you claim that i must not like "good" (what is "good" music anyway? you like blind melon and i don't therefore they aren't good to me. i didn't say they weren't talented or didn't have an influence on pearl jam. i just said they annoyed me. and the assumption you make on my musical taste from these bands is borderline retarded.) music based on the fact that i listed popular bands amoung pearl jam fans that annoy me. and your argument does imply that i'm "supposed" to like certain bands. you said it yourself! "how can you hate the who and be a pearl jam fan?"
if i love pearl jam then you can't believe i would list those bands as annoying (and it is possible for me to find the who annoying. because.. well.. i just do.). pearl jam makes music SIMILAR to the who and blind melon. should everyone who likes neil young and blind melon like pearl jam then?
and you're right. you don't have to understand it because you can't. you aren't me. and there's no accounting for taste. i would say that you don't like good music because you like blind melon.
ok. sorry, i was just confused. i mean out of all the annoying bands in the world you specifically call out great bands. you said blind melon, my morning jacket, the who, and the grateful dead are the bands that annoy you the most. now you don't have to like any of those bands, but you can't deny that they are all great musicians. when you make a post like that without even throwing us something like good charlotte, nickelback, jason mraz or something really shitty and cringe inducing suggests you're just looking for an argument. so don't be so defensive and shocked that someone would call you out on it.
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
All top shop tastic, eye liner, pixie boot and 'quirky colored' tight wearing jumped up modern 'Pop/rock' acts.
Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
Motley Crue
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Grateful Dead (and all of their clones)
We are all entitled to are opinion.I love Pearl Jam,but will always be a Deadhead 1st.When Pearl Jam comes close to playing 3000 shows and allows taping..please drop me a line.I find alot of Deadheads annoying and jaded.I saw my 1st PJ show Mansfield 2..2008 at the ripe old age of 44.Looking forward to many more.
Best line in a movie ever: "Do you know how I know your gay? Because you like Coldplay!"
Guarantee that in 10 years this band will be long forgotten about!!! I compare them to the Backstreet Boys and 'Nsync!

U2-- just shit me,loved rattle and Hum and earlier stuff, but just can't stand them since. I think it is the way the carry themselves(Bono actually). It just irks me
Nickleback- I can put up with most things, but I instantly change channels (tv or radio) when they come on.

kings of leon
my morning jacket
blind melon (i totally fail to understand the love for this band)
neil young
the who
greatful dead
wow. this is a weird list for someone who is a fan of pearl jam. the reason you probably fail to understand the love for blind melon is because you don't appreciate a lot of good music. you're entire list here with the exception of kings of leon are all great bands. how can you hate the who and be a pearl jam fan? i mean, you can like and dislike whatever you want, it just boggles my mind because of how heavy of an influence some of these bands have been on pearl jam and it really shows in their music. sorry for the rant, nothing personal, i just don't understand it at all.
anyway, i agree with most of the nickelback, creed, limp bizkit posts but i don't let that music bother me because most people already know it sucks. my list would be...
o.a.r.
dispatch
jason mraz
dave matthews band
i think you can like pearl jam but not like the bands that you are "supposed" to like. just because a band inspires the band you like doesnt mean you must like them. it drives my pearl jam loving friends crazy that i do not like the clash or the ramones.
Well said.
I love the Clash, Ramones are pretty one dimensional and get boring for me though.
I like the bands that annoy the QT31085. Just because a band annoys, doesn't mean that they make bad music.
Annoying to me is all things about a "band", i.e. music, fans, exposure, & MO.
Just like I Love KOL, but I do think they're annoying.
1. It's been said enough already, but it's just so true. NICKELBACK. Literally the worst band of all-time. By a long shot.
2. Gym Class Heroes. God I hate their lead singer...he thinks he's SO fucking cool and he's such an ugly overly-tatted poser.
3. All American Rejects. I didn't realize how much i despise them til I saw them on Jimmy Fallon the other night, terrible music fronted by a lead singer who doesn't know how much of a failure he really is.
Linkin Park
Nickelback (I think I'm obligated to say it haha)
U2...what the fuck is the deal with this band??
Rap for the past ten years or so..
and I really don't think about her too much, but Bjork. I just can't bring myself to liking her voice...awful. Sorry Bjork

AC/DC- first and foremost my most hated band forever and always. I can't stand the singing.
Nickelback_ I wish dude would put something in his mouth to shut him up
Green Day- never could find the time to listen to him whine. Music is almost tolerable, then the singing starts and its like nails on the chalkboard!

Ooh....I want to add Radiohead to my list although I wouldn't necessarily throw them in the same bucket as the three I mentioned before. Radiohead does annoy me though.
Used to annoy me too - now my second favorite band! Give them a chance (listen to the Bends - good stuff) anyway...
COLDPLAY (bad bad bad imitation Radiohead)
NICKELBACK
BON JOVI
Would have added Jonas Bros., but really, are they even considered a band?ugh.
Music is getting sad, thank God for Pearl Jam!
"I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me. Guaranteed."
John Mayer - I hate people who act like they are better then everyone else.
Coldplay - "I think that was the least shit show we've done. I mean all of our shows are shitty, but this was the least shit show" - Chris Martin
Sugarland - This ladies voice makes me want to put a bullet in my head
