For me the Rolling Stones were always at the bottom of my list (except a few songs)when I was young. I was more Beatles. Now it is the opposite. I rarely listen to any Beatles now (I like to play them however) but I always enjoy anything from the Stones. Of course the Beatles have not made anything since the 70s while the Rolling Stones never stopped.
I must say however that even if the Beatles are no longer my cup of tea, I saw Paul McCartney in Dublin,Ireland about 6 years ago and in Quebec city last summer. What a generous entertainer. He is on stage non stop for 3 hours, and half of that, alone on the stage.

How about... LEAST favorite bands?

I don't hate the Beatles but they are certainly one of my least favorite bands of all times. Pretty much pop smaltz as far as I'm concerned with a couple of notable exceptions. I tried to listen to their greatest hits recently and didn't get thru five songs!!Chasplaya wrote:I know it's hard to believe, but I'm sure there are some.

Sorry, but I still don't like Neil Young. He's a good
guitar player, marginal songwriter, poor stage presence,
and a terrible singer. That said, I am still glad that
his songs are covered on TG for those that do like him. I'm
sure there are a few songs in there I would like, but others
would hate.

I love Neil Young and Bob Dylan so what? Simple music with mediocre vocals feel more down to earth than... Rush.
Oh yeah, I can't stand Metallica. Neil, I respect that you did the lesson on "Nothing Else Matters", but Metallica is almost as annoying as their die-hard fans, who are nowhere to be found on the TG forums.
I also agree that the early Beatles music was pop garbage, and most people are under the impression that they continued to sound like that. People that missed The White Album cause they were going through their Steve Vai phase.
Wait... Can I add Steve Vai to the hall of shame? I don't even need a reason, just listen to him play, and then look at a picture of him. Try to refute. Just try.

If I was to be pedantic you have all listed bands you like as you have said they may be the least favourite which implies they are actually favourites but just not as favoured as others.
The thread should be entitled Bands we dislike.
