as ironic as it might sound, I couldn't agree with you more. deadheads are like the grandparents to candykids.

I just can't grasp how they can manage to look so fucking stupid.

Runner up: Dave Matthews.

As a long-time Instant Composers Pool fan, I resent this.

The band does look kinda stupid though, don't they? Can't even manage to hold their heads up straight.

ZEROpumpkins 09.14.2007 04:03 AM

Die hard Smashing Pumpkins fans. Emo fans. Modern rap fans.

i agree with dream theater.

and yes, a lot of sonic youth "fans" are awful, the ones who buy their albums and go to their shows because of the nirvana connection (and probably don't know sy are still around) or the hipster kids who just like them because it's cool to like them ("thurston moore is so cool! they play cool rock! they are the coolest rock band ever" "why do you say they are cool?" "because they are KEWL man!!!")

yeah, people who go to shows to bitch ("yahh they were good but, the lightning was all wrong, the bass was mixed three dbs lower than it should be and this beer sucks, besides, i know the promoter and he made me PAY to see the show, i mean, i was going to spend those $300 bucks on booze, now i just could drink $4700 worth of drinks, this sucks!") are awful, people who go to shows just to show off the way they are dressed are also shite.

omar rodriguez got technical, i saw the mars volta on the comatorium tour and in between every song he played scales super fast and shit. technical doesn't mean good anyway.

slayer, pantera fans, a lot of shitheads are into them yeah, but most people i encounter in these kind of shows are really cool and friendly. kreator fans...i was kinda shocked to see them named here, they are like the nicest people i know.

manu chao, molotov and cafe tacuba fans are the worst here.

any condecending asshole who thinks he/her is superior because what he/she listens are shit. i would say anyone who listens to the killer, interpol, etc. but those people don't really like or listen to music, so they are not really fans.

i'm really surprised no one replied to my "dir en grey" or "mindles self indulgence" fans, but then i think maybe some of you haven't been exposed to this scum..."Dir En Grey".. uh... just look them up if you don't know who they are.. and then realize that their fans dress like the people in the band.. they're constantly slashing themselves open and carving the band members' names into their skin (like Manson/Slayer fans but worse)... and.. yeah.. i dunno what to say..As far as MSI goes.. haha.. their fan base is so wretched.. I went to one of their shows.. all these whores going "PISS ON ME JIMMY!" I'd like to think it was a fun time, but the people there were SO fucking stupid. I was embarassed. And MSI weren't even very good. Sump Pumps and Tub Ring were way better. But yeah.Tool fans.. I know plenty of intelligent Tool fans, but SOME of them.. the ones who go "YOU KNOW HOW 'PARABOLA' IS 6 MINUTES AND 35 SECONDS LONG? WELL, JOHN 6:35 SAYS [SUCH AND SUCH] AND THEN IT'S ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT THE NEXT SONG 'TICKS AND LEECHES' IS IN THE TIME SIGNATURE 7/8 FOLLOWED BY 5/4 FOLLOWED BY 31/16, AND IF YOU PAY ATTENTION TO THOSE NUMBERS USING WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT DANTE AND SATAN THEN YOU KNOW THAT..." You know, that bullshit. Look it up on wikipedia. It's ridiculous.. Tool fans think that Tool has hidden messages in their TIME SIGNATURES.

atsonicpark 09.14.2007 01:36 PM

Oh yeah.. I forgot: Hardcore fans of the Locust are some of the worst human beings in the history of existence. Everyone I've ever know who has remained hardcore into that band for years has been the biggest fucking idiots I've ever known. Jesus.

luxinterior 09.14.2007 02:32 PM

I only know one Dir En Grey fan.
