 That's part of the reason I've pretty given up on "music radio" here
 in the States.  There are far too many "no talent" bands out there
 that are built around one guy with a modest amount of talent.  Too bad
 nobody seems to realise (or, more to the point, care) that the rest of
 the band is leaving the talented guy mired in a sea of talentless
 crud.

 But that's the big irony...their own stuff sucks even more than the
 limp remakes that're being foisted upon us.


 Just one mans opinion.
