    Neil Young. I know a fellow Canadian but. Can't sing, can't play the guitar but every one of his songs is an anthem mega hit.

    Bruce was really great up until the Born In The USA album, IMO. Those early albums had some great songs. I'll admit he's has a few decent songs sprinkled in the most recent couple of albums.

    Bruce is worth seeing live, however. You'll not likely see a more energetic, nor longer concert!

    Springsteen, AC/DC, Ozzy, Motley Crue for starters.
    Certainly my feelings can change. I used to hate the Eagles with a passion and now find I like a fair amount of their stuff. Same with the Stones.

    What did one stoner say to the other stoner after they ran out of dope at a Dead concert?

    Wow, this band sucks!
    Obviously the author of this joke has never been to a Dead show. It is IMPOSSIBLE to run out of dope at a dead concert.
    As for not getting the Dead, I can fully understand. I didn't get them either until I actually went to a show, and... I guess substances were involved ...and... I thought they were great!
