They are very talented musicians. But they are Canadians. Americans tend to dismiss everything from Canada, which is just another example of our misplaced arrogance and superiority complex.Yeah I know, Del..you a Rush fan.
The "anti-Zeppelin"
Got Geddy?

rush is one band I know nothing about.
I was thinking there is a good reason why.
that is likely it.
I could not even name one song of theirs.
Its likely because nothing they ever did impressed me as talent
Sorry, but he's not even in the top 10%.Page is the top 1% of guitar players and composers, why didn't Obama call for redistribution of his talent and money?
Cool! Ant races!
they stole a bunch of blues songs, especially the first two albums.
basically, they ripped off poor black guys.
classy
Led Zep overrated?
LOLz
yes....
and some would say they are the most hyped cover band in history.
Cover Band? 5 Songs Stolen By Led Zeppelin | Interesting Facts, Trivia and OpinionHere is a list of songs that the classic band Led Zeppelin lifted from other artists - without credit. In some cases, they got sued for stealing other people's music, in some cases, in the less litigious days of the Sixties, they just got away with it.
Led Zep never hid that they were influenced by previous musicians especially Delta blues, but to call them a "cover band" is silly.
Babe I'm gonna Leave You
When the Levee Breaks
Gallows Pole
Then they should have credited those songwriters.Sure, other had prior versions, but anything Zep touched because uniquely theirs in a way no other band at the time could match
(OMG Just listened to Spirit "Taurus" (the toured with Led Zep for three years) and at 52 seconds he stole "Tales of Brave Ulysses!!!))
I am not talking about their product or its genre. I am talking about the time I pay for them to entertain me in a concert or a show. Get on stage and perform please. When I come to hear music I want to hear music.
Um..
Wooooooossssshhhhhhhhhh...
But this post is not unusual.
Ryan cites Rage Against the Machine as one of his faves.
Obviously..he doesn't get them. Or he doesn't care and just likes the music.
Wooooshhhhhhhhhhh for you Sallow!
Typing s-l-o-w-l-y.
I don't mind that a song has political overtones. I know this when I buy a concert ticket to said group or artist. I am clearly talking about using the concert stage to talk politics. Bully pulpit stuff.
I think folks walked out of a Madonna concert recently just for that reason. Of course, she was probably 40 minutes late to that, too....Wooooshhhhhhhhhhh for you Sallow!

Exactly. Shut up and sing. If you want to talk politics then create a separate event. If I pay for music I want music.

Yeah. Ted Nugent sucks.
They pulled an Elvis. Or a Pat Boone.they stole a bunch of blues songs, especially the first two albums.
basically, they ripped off poor black guys.

Ahh, but where does it say that you are paying for music? Nowhere. You are making an assumption.
You are paying to see an artist live. If that artist sits and reads the phone book on stage, you are welcome to trash that artist afterward. I basically paid to watch David Lee Roth drink a bottle of Jack Daniels. It's now my right to say that concert was one of the worst I've ever seen.

you might want to actually have listened to the first 2 albums before you make ridiculous comments such as the above

Your opinion = LOL
Yeah, and it's not that hard, either.

..or part of the Heartbreaker solo
just sayin...he had to read off the teleprompter to list the band members as well as the years they sang.
Obviously he isn't that much of a fan if he doesnt know their names.

Well, I do pay for the music and if they fall down on the job by using their bully pulpit to rant politically then I will not be buying another concert ticket. Pretty simple concept Synth.
