Mike Love should be high up on the list

Ted Nugent, of course. What a dillhole he is.
Eddie Van fricking Halen.
Elvis Costello for ruining Diana Krall, making her think she could sing pop music. a-hole.

Robbie Robertson was one of the first people who came to mind, but damn he always comes off as a charming dude in interviews & podcasts, and I can't recall him taking any public shots at anyone who'd blasted him...maybe he's had a more comfortable living post-Band than the others, so he doesn't GAF
Tom Scholz crossed my mind, but I'm actually in the minority of people who think there's alot of misunderstood hate there. If the label allowed him to honor his vision of Boston as a faceless "project" instead of an illusion of a functioning band, he wouldn't have caught any more heat than a typical band leader IMO...
Nikki Sixx, but maybe he's just my own personal villain, because there are few history revisionists like him
Maybe Gregg Allman, for pretty much breaking up the band by taking an immunity deal to cover his own arse.
Chris Robinson, no comments necessary.
Liam Gallagher
Maybe Sting, for his arrogant belief that he was above The Police...still waiting for him to prove it.
On a dark note, the band Mayhem. Poster children for douchey death metal.

Precisely because he snagged all the writing credits for himself. All I know is that if Levon didn't like him, I don't like him. #TeamLevon

Yeah, he was more Don Quioxte than villain, I think.

I started but haven't finished "The Dirt" - I'll have to get back to you.

Meh - there's a lot of blame to go around for the Black Crowes' problems. Not defending Chris, but Rich seems greedier and greedier as they get older.

Good one. He was blessed to be in such a great band - and he is a legitimate talent. But that ego, boy, he can hold his own with Roger Waters and Bono - that's for sure.

Richie Blackmore has a well deserved reputation for being an a--hole to bandmates and fans.

I mentioned Nikki Sixx because in the last decade or so, every story he tells (esp on his radio show), whoever it may be about, he finds a way to insert himself into it, a "six degrees of Nikki Sixx" of sorts...if I were to believe his version of the truth, then rock & roll and the world in general would cease to exist, if we hadn't been blessed with his presence on God's green earth, lol...
And yeah, Robertson was definitely on a different plane than the others, from a royalties standpoint. While we look at The Last Waltz fondly, it probably would've been better if Robbie had simply just left, and let the others continue on like they wanted to. I mean, technically they did keep going after a brief hiatus, but The Last Waltz kinda hurt their brand name moving forward IMO...

And a point of resentment and frustration until the deaths of most of them. Truly sad - and all part of RR's cash grab.

Close to the top of the list has to be the murderous fathers of Marvin Gaye and Sam Cooke.

Eminem not been mentioned? He owned the villain roll early on

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Yoko Ono. She broke up the freakin' Beatles for crying out loud. Definitely an historic act of musical villainy!
