They're my hometown faves

Apart from the Dead of course

I don't give a crap what anyone says, they have a TON of great songs, esp their early stuff. Drops of Jupiter is a stone-cold classic album.

They've gotten a bit more poppy and Maroon 5-ish lately which bums me out but ... they're making a ton of $$$ and they paid their dues, so ...

Also, they did an entire remake of Led Zeppelin II in 2016 ... and it's damn good. That alone makes you cool in my book.

Even Maroon 5 .... “She Will Be Loved” is a great little song, IMO.

Agree with your assessment of “Drops of Jupiter”
