Lol this thread is gonna be a flame war if we dont close this.

This is a discussion not a flame thread. A flame thread was the thread that was about dragonforce and being the best band ever.

I have yet to really see any flaming, or anything of that nature.

I say if you have it, use it.

People, who judge to a degree where it's just stupid, are obviously jealous =/

It depends how one defines talent.

When someone thinks of talent they could be thinking of outstanding technical skill such as the aforementioned Joe Satriani

Or when someone thinks of talent they could be thinking of someone who isn't that great at playing an instrument but played within themselves to make some pretty creative stuff e.g. Kurt Cobain

The grammies, from when I used to watch them, only did the main stream anything, so they in themselves were pretty flawed.

That's the thing though, everyone and I mean everyone starts off at a rocky start, as artists, and just because they make it to the big time, and happen to have a good thing going for them, doesn't mean that they should be subject to "Gah, you blow because you're mainstream".

That's what annoys me.

Well I never said that, I know your a huge mainstream fan, but people will always hate some rock bands, its just when you are mainstream a lot of bands try to be like you I guess and the genre gets old after a while.

Most mainstream bands just produce repetitive radio songs that will get overplayed a million times (if you'll allow me an exaggeration)
