YOU GUYS ARE ALL HATAS

I read that as, "you guys are all ass hats" .. and then again as "you guys are all hats" .. But being a DMB fan, it turned out to not be that witty.

And I believe it's "whomever". Once again, a DMB fan with grammar issues.

Why do I keep opening this thread?

ILM's favorite train wreck!

Made ya look.

RHCP

does anybody besides me read this as "Red-Headed Clown Posse," no matter how senseless a reading that may be? No? Ok, fine, whatever

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 15:59 (twenty years ago) link

Fuck any of you who do not like DMB. They are the greatest band ever and you should bow down. I've never heard such dumb ass reasons to dislike a band. So again, if you don't like Dave, Fuck you and your mother.

Hey, Your Mama.

Are you a jock?

Gosh, I'm convinced!

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 02:24 (twenty years ago) link

perhaps everybody hates DMB so much because they are, by far, the most talented musical group on the scene today. ever think about that?????

I love this thread.

Is this the longest running ILM thread?(I'm not counting the Nas vs. Jay-Z thing)

I know that's why I hate GW Bush .. because he's so talented. His fans are still dolts, though.

I've finally gotten around to reading large chunks of this thread rather than skimming through it for two minutes at a time ... it's been running for fourteen months with dormant periods of only four or five weeks max since then.
This thread should never die. We cannot let it happen. We must always remember.
Bravo to everyone who posted here and helped keep my brain functioning because I'm bored as fuck here at work.
Oh yeah, DMB SUX BZNALLS AND ALL HIS FANS R SUPER GAY.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

DMB sucks, and you suck for liking them.

Dear Idiots:

I would like to state that all you Britney Spears loving retards can burn in hell. Not only does Dave Matthews come up with impossibly good lyrics, but also comes up with acoustics and rythms that you couldn't play to save yourself. Once again Dave Matthews Band is the best and I hope you mothergrabbing faggets will go and die. You also have no lives!!!!(I would like see anything that you guys have tried to come up with in the fields of music) And by the way to the faggets that don't know what they are talking about, Phish, Counting Crows, Dave Matthews Band and Bob Dylan are all the best. . . you may return to wasting you life.

Rex Daines, Wednesday, 5 May 2004 00:45 (nineteen years ago) link

I can totally play "Crash into Me" on the guitar. And I really am the worst guitarist in the history of Christendom.

"And by the way to the faggets that don't know what they are talking about, Phish, Counting Crows, Dave Matthews Band and Bob Dylan are all the best. . . you may return to wasting you life."

I love wasting my love.

Not only does Dave Matthews come up with impossibly good lyrics

-- Rex Daines

He's right you know:


Dodo

Once upon a time
When the world was just a pancake
Fears would arise
That if you went too far you’d fall
But with the passage of time
It all became more of a ball*
We’re as sure of that
As we all once were when the world was flat

So I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game where nothing is sure, oh
Why would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you

When was it killed
The very last dodo bird
And was she aware
She was the very last one

So I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game where nothing is sure, oh
Why would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you
You say who did, well you did, you

If all the things that you are saying love
Were true enough but still
What is all the worrying about
We can work it out
We can work it

Oh I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game where nothing is sure
Why would you play by the rules?
Who did, you did, you
Who did, you did, you
You say who did, well you did, it’s you

the music mole (colin s barrow), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 01:14 (nineteen years ago) link

Now you just try telling me that that lyric isn't impossibly good.

DAVE MATTHEWS NEVER DID A SPLIT 7 INCH WITH BORN AGAINST

GET TO THA' (PRICE) CHOPPA!!!!!!!! ROFFLE!!!!!!!! (ex machina), Wednesday, 5 May 2004 02:06 (nineteen years ago) link

Wow hahah I am truly suprised that some one who hates Dave Matthews would take the time to play crash into me the whole way through and that you could get some of the best musicians to play the rest of all the other instruments that make the rest of the band and I agree go waste the rest of your life

jon skogen, Thursday, 6 May 2004 23:53 (nineteen years ago) link

So did Allison just finally give up?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 7 May 2004 00:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Rex, I think it's cruel to condemn Britney Spears to hell just because she loves retards.

dave225 (Dave225), Friday, 7 May 2004 10:58 (nineteen years ago) link

And what the FUCK is it with Dave Matthews fans and poor grammar?

Is there even a single Britney Spears fan on ILM? I've never heard any Ilxor members bigging up Britney.
I suspect we're Christina fans, really.

I agree with rex daines... I looked on the dmb fan site and this thread is on there and whoever said that dmb fan have bad grammar I couldn't find one error in spelling.

Alec Korslovic, Friday, 7 May 2004 19:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm happy you're happy.

I don't think Rex said that you guys said that any of you wrote that you love britney spears did he?
DMB RULES!

This is so fantastic to me. "I will counter your claims of bad grammar with a run-on sentence! BOW DOWN!"

Alec, spelling and grammar are two different things. The grammar of the sentence you've written here, for example, is atrocious, although there aren't any misspelt words in it.
xpost oh sure Dan STEAL MY THUNDER

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Friday, 7 May 2004 19:47 (nineteen years ago) link

I hate to belabor the obvious, but other than the fact that his lyrics are middle-school (cf. the example above and the deathless "hike up your skirt and show your world to me"); and the fact that just about every song starts with an acoustic guitar intro before the band inevitably kicks in; and the fact that everyone says he and his band improvise when they don't, they just take long solos, there's also the fact that his fans say things like "you're just jealous" and "you don't UNDERSTAND his music" and of course "Britney Spears-loving retards" and "I hope you mothergrabbing faggets will go and die."

Maybe an artist shouldn't be held accountable for the irritating behavior of his/her fans, and from what I've read it doesnt seem like Dave Matthews himself would hold any views like that. But it's not easy to separate.

Rick Massimo (Rick Massimo), Friday, 7 May 2004 20:20 (nineteen years ago) link

I came across this site while looking for a choral arrangement of "Everyday." I don't understand how people can be so disrespectful to musicians who are making money off of what they do. Obviously they are doing something right because they make money, and lots of it. You hate the band, so what? Is it really that important to make that known that you have to dedicate a site to why that is? Someone has way too much free time on their hands. So, is everyone on this site that is bashing DMB a record executive who decides whether a band gets signed or not... no. So who cares what YOU have to say about how "bad" they are? Do you think people really care that YOU think "he sounds like a muppet," or that you think his lyrics are "middle-school?" Not really. So, a little piece of advice to all of you who think it's cool to bash bands who matter so much more than any of you will, get a life.

"Good music is good music and everything else can go to hell"
--Dave Matthews

Stacey, Monday, 10 May 2004 16:44 (nineteen years ago) link

If we matter so little, why did you bother to write anything?

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 10 May 2004 16:52 (nineteen years ago) link

Yeah, it's really not that important to tell others what we think about DMB, or any other musical artist for that matter. The name I Love Music should be changed to Music Just Isn't That Important So Let's Not Bother Writing About It Anymore.
I love this thread. It cannot be killed. It cannot die!

Barry Bruner (Barry Bruner), Monday, 10 May 2004 16:59 (nineteen years ago) link

Whats everyones reasons for hating them? Particularly interested in the views of Americans.
-- John McAteer (j.mcateer200...), February 11th, 2003. (17 trackbacks)

This guy asked. Have you even looked at the top of the thread?


By the way, you do realize, don't you, that the Dave Matthews quote is completely cribbed from Duke Ellington and no doubt others? (To his credit, Dave Matthews probably knows this.)

Rick Massimo (Rick Massimo), Monday, 10 May 2004 17:02 (nineteen years ago) link

I looked on the dmb fan site and this thread is on there ...

Can we get a link to that page?

Also, still waiting for something from a DMB fan that's more compelling than "Dave is great. U R all Gay."

dave225 (Dave225), Monday, 10 May 2004 17:08 (nineteen years ago) link

I am a gay faggot and i want to suck every man's dick in the world. I am half way to my goal. Who will be next. It could be you or you. But you wont know cause i will sneak up on you in the middle of the night and suck it. But the bottom line of this letter is that i really want to suck dave mathews dick.

dan creed, Monday, 10 May 2004 17:11 (nineteen years ago) link

I wonder if 'John' realised what horrors he would bring about.

Ugh! Again with the money issue! Since when is the accumulation of wealth any indication of substance and/or quality? Fuckin' Insane Clown Posse have made a lot of money too.....are they then doing something right?

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 10 May 2004 17:17 (nineteen years ago) link

Michael Bolton and Haliburton are both quite wealthy.

dave225 (Dave225), Monday, 10 May 2004 17:18 (nineteen years ago) link

In DMB-thread time, we are now approaching the year 1967: get ready for some crazy antics in Paris & Chicago
