    One of my college buddies was a big DMB fan and this one time he dragged me to a show put on by some dude who sometimes played with them and it was just this one dude with a bunch of synthesizers and amps and a wobble pedal and a guitar.

    He'd play like 5 seconds of guitar then put it on a loop, then play another 5 seconds, put that on another loop on top of the first loop, ad infinitum.

    This went on for like 45 minutes and I was ready to leave after 5 but we were sitting in the middle of the 2nd row and I didn't want to make a scene.
    this reminds me of this

    Foo Fighters is a professional, technically competent band. They take just enough risk to keep from being stale, and they consistently produce solid (but not revolutionary) rock.

    I appreciate their workman-like approach.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    the "no true scotch man" fallacy.

    Had Nirvana never happened, I could see Dave Grohl maintaining a lifelong career as a studio musician.

    Foo Fighters really arent very good.

    Honest question: Are you a fan of rock, like, as a genre?

    Because I can totally see that making sense for someone who is fairly indifferent towards rock as a whole

    But as a fan of rock as a genre Foo Fighters are not only pretty good but more impressively they are consistently pretty good.

    correct

    they are pretty indistinguishable from the scads of post-grunge bands that are very same-y and boring

    but they get a pass because grohl was in nirvana

    Pretty strongly disagree.

    Grohl is a fucking talented guy and diminishing his work down to "gets a pass because he was in nirvana" is just goosey.

    Grohl has been in more awesome bands than anyone.

    If only foo fighters was one of them.

    I think I don't want to actually date any more.

    I just want like. A chill roommate that wants to hug me a lot, and won't invite over klepto-people, or people that can't be trusted around sensitive electronics.

    I could probably sustain my existence on good hugs.

    Be my roommate! I hug!

    But like

    who really cares about consistency in music?

    I can listen to a dozen bands that only ever had one great record just as easily as I can listen to 12 okay records by the same band.

    Who actually wants to listen to a pretty good rock band when there's such a glut of content out there to explore?

    On Borderlands 2 I'm on chapter 17, just finished up Toil and Trouble. I don't know who at Gearbox is so in love with putting buzzards in this game, and using them in every encounter over and over, but I know I don't like them very much.

    I'm quite hug-averse actually.

    Only my wife gets hugs. And sometimes my cats, though they do not appreciate it.

    Other people, including long time friends, just make me uncomfortable.

    I can offer a study handshake, and a generic platitude though.

    I like hugs

    Except I never know when to stop

    And I just have to kind of wait for the other person to pull away

    And then it's awkward forever

    Yes. I like bouncing around!

    That makes sense. I'm in the opposite boat. There's definitely heavier stuff I like but that's far more the exception rather than the rule.

    Honestly I find myself liking rock with female lead signers a lot more regardless of how heavy it is.

    Get to see Halestorm for the third time on Saturday (well more like second and a half because their Northern Invasion set was absurdly short)

    but am excite!

    Hugs are rad and given freely, maybe the odd handy here and there

    what you need is a hug that lasts long enough for that feeling to pass

    The problem is the "polite" hug. The hug people give even remotely close acquaintances.

    Like, surs, I just met you. Respect the personal space. You get a fist-bump. That's it.
