Dude I dont have near the creative mind that Nubbz has

but thanks anyway
There he goes. Trying to throw us off the scent but at the same time complimenting himself.

I think you're on to something, @MikeDeTiger

I had to drive a bit today, and hour up and an hour back and fiddled with the radio to find some "current music".  Whatever it was was pretty drab and boring.

By this time of year I'm well into my Christmas playlists/albums. 

Today so far it's been "Christmas With Willie Nelson" and Michael McDonald's "In The Spirit." James Taylor's "At Christmas" is on deck.

Reinforces my belief that Nubbz and 320 are the same person. 
I'm mulling over the epiphany that you and Mdot wear the same skivvies

Definitely one in my group too. I never understood the appeal.. like at all.
I wonder if Nirvana was partially so huge because they were just such a new and distinct sound. We had glam rock and hard rock and the like, but this was a brand new sound for most of us. 

And then before we knew it, Cobain was gone, so like a lot of things when someone passes away, it almost canonizes it as being more than it ever was...

Oasis

Just never really saw what everyone else saw there, I guess?

I feel like I don't know the difference between Oasis and Oleander.  Did they come out at the same time?  I get them confused.

When I look up Oasis songs, I liked Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova just fine. I don't hate them, anyway.

Isn't one of those things the fake fat they tried to put in potato chips that gave everyone the runs?

Perfectly sums it up for me. I don't dislike them. I just don't think they had more than 2 good songs.

I like Country/Western enough never been a big fan of Tim McGraw or Faith Hill though,maybe i haven't listened enough like I do here.Mcgraw's old man TUG was a hell of a reliever though.He was called that before Mel Tucker purloined it. Tug played 19 Major Leagues seasons with the Mets/Phillies and took the Phillies to their 1st world series championship.He didn't leave in one run in July of '80,mastered the screwball appropriately named for a guy like him. I remember in the 2008 series his son Tim spread his ashes on the mound in Philly before one of the games.Well the Phillies went on to win the game and the series 😎. Not sure but I may have hijacked my own post,have a couple of Sam Adams Winter Lager and Great Lakes Oktoberfests and you get creative or just full of shit

I'm just the opposite.

Oleander was a throw away band with two hits. My wife likes those two songs much more than me. I don't veto skip them, but don't enjoy them either.

Oasis was polarizing; massively popular but also attracted a lot of hate. I'd consider myself a casual Oasis fan, but Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova are songs I almost never listen to. "Fuckin' in the Bushes" is probably my favorite song, which was popularized through the movie, Snatch.

The Doors were a good vibe-y band, but I can understand someone not liking them.  I don't dislike them, but I'm meh overall about them. 

Rush was a popular band who I always thought was really good at bad music.  Their songs were just too off-putting for me.  They could really play, tho.  I saw a recent interview with the bass player and he was asked about their success despite not producing many singles or radio friendly songs.  He said it was their personality.....said "Sometimes we'd come up with a really good hook and some lyrics and we'd think 'Hey, that sounds like a hit.  We probably should change it,' and then we'd proceed to f*** it all up."  I was like, huh, explains so much.
