- Dawes to me is folk, not Americana. - although their earlier albums were very folk/Americana and that bleeds a little into Divine Providence, the show I saw was not at all Americana. Punk rock all the way (complete with john playing the guitar with his dong)
I'm all for drawing lines but I think folk has become an outdated nomenclature that inspires images of some want to be Dylan singing some terrible song at a coffee shop open mic night. I will refer to things as folky but never folk. Folk died with the rise of the internet and the resulting disapproval of the folk writing tradition of stealing melodies and lyrics and making them your own. Now a days you can't do that without getting sued.
Juggs, can you suggest an alternative to all the Americana "headliners"??
EDIT: B/c I agree with you...a lot of those bands are underwhelming and only deserve to be billed in the 4-7 range IMO
We have a PM system where you can get any member of the board a message you'd want them to read. Probably going to be more efficient than waiting for him to jump back in this thread and maybe see your post.

Juggs also appears in threads if you type "Mastodon" 3 times in succession. It's a quasi-bat signal.
GRIEVANCE NO. 8769: - Who the hell docked me like 9 points in the last 12 hours? I haven't even posted anything, let alone something even the least bit offensive. I honestly am confused, I feel like I lose massive amounts of points in random overnight binges.
Someone really gets off on that. I lost 50 points in a little over 2 weeks.

No one is jumping to defend Avett's, so can we go ahead and mark them down in the "overrated" category and call it a day?
I think they're overrated by most but I also think they're an awesome live band with a collection of some great songs. But when I tell people who don't know anything about them who I'm going to see I say "this band that is pretty good that I like but they're kinda girly and a lot of girls like their love songs. BUT THEY HAVE HIGH ENERGY!".
I think they and Mumford are overrated by a majority but I still think they're great bands. Just not the best things ever like people treat them.

Exactly, it is an old technique AWATD would use to destroy people's karma. Mine went down like 5 in a day but it leveled out so I'm not so sure anymore.

Well, I wanted to make a thread that just contained polls where people could vote on the right answer. This would have been a nice way to develop a list of people who need remedial problem solving coursework. But since you can't make more than one poll per thread, and you can't edit polls, it didn't work. WOOO PROBOARDS
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
