It proves why you think WSP and Phish are the same tier. If you saw Phish live, you would get "it"

I've tried numerous times to listen to phish and I don't like them at all but I'm not sitting here saying that they are boring and not very good because that would be stupid of me to say about a band that I'm not a fan of. I don't think its bad, its just not for me. You don't have to like them but to say stupid shite like all WSP songs sound the same and they aren't even close to the level of Phish is dumb because it's really just an opinion
Phish fans need to feel that they are fans of the best band in the world. Admitting that WSP is their peer diminishes that in their eyes. So instead of listening to music for musics sake they have to go out of their way to shite on anyone close to Phish's level.

I've listened to their live shows plenty of times and I don't get "it". Now if you're telling me that I have to go to do drugs and watch the pretty lights to get "it" then fair enough

No I wouldn't because I would more than likely spend the day wanting to escape the smug cesspool of fans that flock to phish shows in droves

You havent even seen both bands. I have. Your opinion is invalid

Yeah I get that sense as well. Many don't seem to be able to accept that other people can have different tastes other than their own. That's why I hate the "this band is better than that one" argument

I've never been to Afghanistan either but I'm pretty damn positive it'd be a miserable experience....

You would literally have to be the most miserable person in the galaxy to not have fun at a Phish show.

Panic fans hate hearing how mediocre their little Southern rock noodle music is and get real butthurt when it gets pointed out to them
We sure do. It's a pride thing. You gotta admit though, Panic from 97-2002 was some badass stuff! ABB with Duane is top notch Southern Rock/ Jam Band. I believe ABB, GD, WSP, Phish, and others should have high status because they all have been top notch at one point on their career.

I love that you're an authority on the personality traits of the Phish fanbase, yet have never even seen them live before.

I know I've met enough phish fans and talked to enough on message boards such as these to know that y'all are the most egotistical and annoying fan base that I've ever run across.

If you are really going to judge a fanbase on that then I don't know what to tell you.

I had another group of people in that post as well but reading comprehension doesn't seem to be amongst y'all's strengths

Why don't you quote everything that he said instead of picking out something to try to make a point
