Where's Furious to correct the spelling?

Hate to tell ya this "Amigo", but that is sort of the essence of how life works.

The Grateful Dead is the greatest American rock band. As a cultural institution, they're the biggest and best we have. All the other legendary bands are from the other side of the pond. All our best are solo acts, befitting our individualist spirit. Tom Petty, Frank Zappa, Bruce Springsteen, and Neil Young (who's Canadian anyway) were all functionally solo artists. The Cars were really good, though.

The White Stripes should be in there somewhere.

Sorry, "Jam Bands" are horrible. Thank God Pink Floyd kicked Syd out of their band so they could go on to write some of the greatest albums of all time.

If we are going to talk cultural institutions with questionable skills as musicians the I am taking KISS every day of the week over The Dead. The helped influence and create one of the most amazing sub genres of music ever while The Dead helped influence and a few unlistenable jam bands.

Many that is true, but an incomplete statement.

The menstrual cycle changes among Hassidic Jewish women was something as well.

I used to lol at kids in HS that said Syd Barrett was the king. I would say did you actually listen to any of that shit?

Over rated? Dude I get that you might not dig their music but they were spectacular live. It's not easy to improvise around a melody for an hour. I frigging love the dead. Their studio stuff to me is meh but the live recordings are remarkable.

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

"Spectacular" is not the word I would use, though I'm sure they were occasionally spectacular. They could also be dreadful. But that's all part of the package. No two nights were ever the same. They were more about the vibe. A show could be great even if it was uneven musically. They're really one of a kind. There are others that have tried to pick up the mantle, but no one has really done it. I saw them four times. They were radically different each time.

I wouldn't have them in the top ten, but "We're an American Band" might be the greatest American rock song.

These 10 are pretty good. I’d argue that Aerosmith, Journey, Metallica and maybe the Beastie Boys could work their way into a few of these slots. Three ‘90’s grunge bands being there might be a stretch but if you go top 20 I’d say all 3 stay. Foo Fighters also probably in the discussion whether you think they’re bland or generic.

Our hotel smelled like dead hooker vagina (before you ask I had gotten a detailed description from beardown)

Would love to see the brainstorming session Grand Funk had when coming up with the idea for the song ”We're an American Band".

Are you stoned or pissed off, or both, when you create these postings?

By brainstorming session, do you mean running a train on one of their groupies?

The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear.
