I am not saying that at all...most fans are thick skinned about their fav bands anyway.  I am just saying that music shouldn\'t be considered a competition.  Why does everything have to be "mine is better than yours!"?  I just think that if band members get along why do fans have to constantly try to "prove" that "their" band is better?  

I don\'t think that they will be offended, but why have to hear that every time a band other than the breakfast/Timmy Tour/GTB are mentioned?  Even on the TFA part of this board which is for "other" bands than the Breakfast...there is ALWAYS a they suck, they aren\'t as good as the Breakfast, etc.  Why is there that need?  If you don\'t like that band why post and try to compare them to the Breakfast?  Let people have some other bands that they like and discuss them where they are supposed to without haveong to "defend" their choice on bands that they listen to.

And I know this is the GSOT board, I am just making a point in a thread it was warranted.

i like AOD, I\'ve taken pics for them a couple time. some much needed folkie/soul music with a damn good sound track. the same with TLG. i didn\'t care to much for their latest studio album but there live sheet is pretty decent. the keyboardist is pretty damn good, but Sequia would toast \'em. it\'s all right to like another bands sound but all in all and push come to shove it\'s all about the Breakfast period. and i still dislike UM

As far as having fans that are vocal about their band it can be a double-edged sword for sure.
Take moe.down. I know having fans chant moe.sucks! for more than a minute because The Breakfast ran out of time may have been funny as it WAS moe.down but I would think it may not have been the best thing for the band.
 The thing I do find great about the chant is I do not think it was started by a .infoer. This tells me there is a spark that just needs to be ignited w/ the flame of a TOUR!!
Worrying is like praying for something you don't want.

i think e-rock from rezi started it. So i guess you can blame trb for that one.  It was obviously in bad taste but at that point we were all FACED and desperately wanting more sizzlin hot bfast ...not more boring moe.
