i know what ya mean man, alot of the bands that i listin to would not be around if it were not for alot of other bands (not soundgarden for sure) but i have alot of respect for the music i listin to and where it came from. and sorry was not trying to say you were "cool" cause you listin to those bands, i know that everyone has there own taste in music, i dont judge people by the music that they listin to but just like to give them a hard time (all in good fun though) about what they listin to.
I myself play in a band and know were not for everyone, and know that if it were not for bandsd that influenced us we would not be together, its just differ times and differ music. like i said bro not trying to make fun of you or anything, im just alittle picky about my music and tend to poke fun at the bands i dont like like (in a good way), but i know they have worked hard at what they do and i can respect that but i dont have to like the music.
dunno if that makes any scence at all as i have just gotten back from the bar.
(hope nobody gets mad
