Welcome to the new forum
but in your estimation do "right-wingnuts" ever have a valid point about anything?
Because if they don't, how can "left-wingnuts" have a valid point about anything?

I even posted a link to a video I took way back when I saw them many years ago .. I remember Bearman commented his baldhead was in the videostill, the connection between Homme and the band means a lot of people in the subculture that listen to this type of music would have heard of them.. of course you're stuck listening to the Old 97s, Wilco and Nada Surf (provided the shows are before 7 pm) so I don't expect you would have ever heard of them...I guess I had avoided them because: a. somehow i associated them with Queens of the Stone Age, who i listened to once and didn't care for.b. I'm not into death metal. And if I was, I wouldn't feel inspired to listen to some band that called themselves "Eagles of Death Metal". Perhaps if they called themselves "Gram Parsons of Death Metal" I would have been more inspired.After listening to one song, I've got them pegged as a boring 90's grunge inspired poppy cock-rock band. Sort of a complement to Foo Fighters. Hey, if that's your bag, that's cool. It's not mine.

The origin of their name is pretty funny, AND I think you pegging them as a grunge inspired poppy band is pretty funny. They are like 100% stoner/surfer/Americana rock band.What's the one song you listened to where you pegged them as that? I know a ton of my friends just plain don't like them and that's cool! I just thought your assessment was funny.
At any rate, I bet he doesn't make Jullian's 50 Most Beautiful People list this year.
Actually, ratb, is gone from the forum. His health is not great right now, and I worry big time for the guy.
Wow, it's almost like there's deleterious health effects from being a tightly-wound, highly-concentrated ball of hatred.
