Well, I think I'll step in again in Axl's defense.

I'm not sure if this is necessarily the case with aiwass, but I have had some experience with people who are just like what Axl described. They never seem to like mainstream music, and are always listening to the newest indie band that you've never heard of and is "the best ever".

That attitude just drives me nuts. I mean, sure, maybe you'll find a band that no one has ever heard of and is pretty good, but I truly believe that most (and I stress most) bands that make it big do so on the basis of some amount of talent. Most indie bands are still indie for a reason; at least the few that I've heard.

Do you really think that there's a band out there that has yet to be "discovered" that is better than U2? Radiohead? The Beatles? Pink Floyd? Popularity and album sales sometimes do mark a successful career.
