How has a band been ruined for you?

What if you let Billy Bragg crash on your sofa only to discover him gone the next morning and that he'd left a used condom floating in your toilet that was resistant to flushing, and that there were mysterious cigarette burn holes in your prized Ikea divan?

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

I'd bet my left nut that Billy Bragg is a nonsmoker.

That's why they are mysterious...

  How a band acts in person shouldn't really affect how you listen to them...unless you are a hanger-on of that band.  For example, lets say that You really like Phil Collins' music.  You become obsessed with Phil, following his tour bus and even meeting him after a show.  You become acquainted with Phil socially and begin to hang out with him from time to time. The relationship becomes sexual.  One day while you're sucking his cock he says he won't cum in your mouth, but he blows his load down your uvula anyway.  You ask why he did that, and he tells you to fuck off.
 
 Does this mean that you still can't listen to Hello I Must Be Going anymore?  Does this mean that you have to burn your 45 of Sussudio  I don't think so.

That is fine for the fan but if you have to work with these people and you get to the point that you want to kill them, then you definitely will look at selling their records you own.
 
 Sort of like when people break up and trash all the photos and things that remind them of their ex.

I can never understand that kind of behavior.

Yeah, but you can't help it.  I HATE the Meat Puppets because of their piss ass behavior and attitude when they came to play my school.  They were dicks to my friends in the band that opened for them.  There was just no need.
 
 Meanwhile, Tommy Keene was a complete love when we interviewed him for our radio shows, and put us on the guest list to his show.  He remains a fave.

Same here, but I have a friend with a collection of pictures without the girl's head.  It is disturbing.
 
 Recently I was at a bbq and 2 ex's were there.  Quite odd.

That's probably because she's giving her head elsewhere!!!!

So are you saying the bands you listed were nice, therefore they went up a few notches?
 
 

Originally posted by Sir HC:
  Often if they are assholes when you meet them.  Bands I don't like get kicked up a few notches if they are nice, those that are assholes get kicked down some off my listening lists.
 
 Ones that have gone up (I wish to accent the positive):
 
 Keane
 Marcy's Playground
 John Mayer
 Howie Day

Then that's the difference between being the fan and being the listener.  You being the fan, short for fanatic.  
 
 I just like to groove to music.   I don't have any burning desire to suck a dick or collect a drumstick.
