I know a sound guy that swears Steve Miller from The Steve Miller Band is the biggest dickhead on the planet.

He says he treats everyone like shite, even those who are helping him put on a good show.

Don't know much about John Bonham other than that he was a drunk...but damn, he brought the pain on drums.

It just sounds different and better.

He was a monumental a-hole. That has no bearing on his playing though, as the premise of the thread established.

According to Gregg Allman in his autobiography, Dickie Betz was a total drunk a-hole who was constantly messing up during songs.

Two pages and no mention of Axl Rose? Arguably one of the biggest douchebags in all of rock?

Edit: I would like to give Eddie Vedder a shout out as well.

It is no secret that Pink Floyd is my favorite band of all time and its really not even close. Its actually a 35 year obsession I have had with them.

That being said, I hate Rogers politics and his overall outlook on things. Always have.. I basically dont believe anything that he believes.

But I love the music and always will.

I'd add Fogerty to the list as well. He was a jerk to not only CCR, but his own brother.

Didn’t the rest of the band fricked John over?

Plus there was that whole, "Canadian Lives Matter" incident when he and his son fought with the cops in Naples, Florida, then blamed the hotel and the cops. At least they got tased for their trouble.


Maybe this will sway your opinion:

The following is a statement from John Cannivet, a former employee of the Ritz-Carlton hotel and witness to the event:

"For the past year, John Cannivet said he has had to bite his tongue as he's read distorted versions of an altercation he witnessed between the lead guitarist for Rush and Collier sheriff's deputies on December 31, 2003. As an employee of The Ritz-Carlton, Naples, where the fracas occurred, he hadn't been allowed to comment, even though he saw first-hand what happened in the stairwell of the hotel. But now that he no longer works for the hotel, he has this to say: Collier County sheriff's deputies went way too far. 'It was extreme police brutality,' said Cannivet, who was the assistant manager of stewarding until leaving that job in January. 'The whole time all this was going down, I'm thinking, "God, what did these people do? It must have been something really bad." It just bothered me....They (deputies) didn't have to use that force,' he said. 'When they shot Justin (with a stun gun), Justin wasn't violent at all. He was walking with the police. All he did was quit walking.' He said Justin and a deputy had words, and he saw Justin quit walking, and then the deputy pulled his Taser out. He said Justin backed away into a corner, seemingly scared. He kind of put his hands up. He kind of froze, and then they shot him (with the Taser),' Cannivet said. 'If I were to describe what it looked like after he got shot, it looked like a severe seizure. He was just out of it because he was electrocuted for a long time. If you could have seen how bad he was twitching on the ground, and screaming and crying, because it hurt so bad.' As Alex Zivojinovich saw this unfold, he charged up the stairs to help his son, Cannivet said. 'And that is when the female officer threw him (Alex) down the stairs,' he said. One of the two felony battery-on-a-law-enforcement charges that Alex Zivojinovich is facing, which could carry a five-year prison sentence, accuses him of throwing Collier sheriff's Cpl. Amy Stanford down the stairs, causing her injury. Cannivet said that just isn't so. 'I watched the female cop (Stanford) throw him (Alex) down there. She was three stairs above him, and so she had leverage. She grabbed him by the throat and he went falling backward,' Cannivet said." - Naples Florida News, April 10, 2005

Meh. I'm familiar with Mr. Cannivet's version. A year later, after he parted ways with the hotel, THEN he wants to say something contradictory to the official version.

I'm not saying cops can't/don't overreact - I'm saying the Ritz isn't in the business of calling cops on their high rolling customers if there is no problem. What I can envision is entitled, intoxicated rock stars and their families getting in over their heads with cops and things escalating.

Rush.


Mainly the guitarist Lifeson (sp?) his “blah blah” speech at the rock and roll HOF just made him look like a complete dick.

Great musician(s). But I hate the whole “fame is bullshite” attitude. He’s right about fame to a point but if it’s that bad.... World needs more bartenders!


In fairness, the Hall was about 15 years late inducting Rush, so I don't blame him. That said, have you ever seen Neil Peart talk about fame/stardom?

Yea, he hates everyone. He's now going out of his way to rip on Pete Townsend and Keith Moon. I think he's a very jealous person.
