Seeing the allmans play whipping post was awesome

But they replaced GOAT guitarist with GOAT guitarist


The one "jam band" that dont suck. I'd probably check that out too, but not for $2k.

But I'm a thrifty bastard. Guess it comes from growing up working class.

She's a very talented girl

Writes all of her material. She is the most prolific/voluminous songwriter of this generation. IMO she is a very good writer.

More importantly, she is a great musician. She is proficient on the guitar, banjo, and piano. IIRC she dabbles on the harmonica.

Does she have the best voice? No. But she more than makes up for it by the fact that she is a short list entertainer. Her concerts are spectacular.

Frankly, I don't get the hate and never will. Just a bunch of older Gen X/young boomers who are jealous of a woman being successful.

And my younger sister, whom is 40, is a big Swiftie. She has a good bit of her albums (on vinyl) and went to her concert here in Atlanta a few months back.

I dont hate, just dont understand the phenomenon.

I do hate her music though. The lyrics are childish, at best. Some are infantile.

Is the implication here that Taylor isn't talented?

I’m sure her people will pass along the thoughts of an alcoholic and she’ll make some changes to her lyrics.

Which would be far more profound than any lyric she's ever written.

You worship a children's jingle writer.

Not really. Some of her lyrics aren’t PG rated. She has some music that are very too mature for her base

Do you go out of your way to be a moron on pretty much every topic. Like Ok you don't like her, tat fine. Your takes are comically uninformed though.

I don’t worship her at all, or anyone or any deity for that matter. She seems like a nice person, she doesn’t cause trouble in any way, she donates money everywhere she goes, and like it or not her music is catchy.

You hate her because she’s popular and really not much more.
