1. Wilson Phillips

I don't care who they're related to. Their real father is Satan.

 

2. Jimmy Buffett

Grateful Dead for drunk lawyers.

 

3. The Eagles

It's not their decadence that bugs me, it's the smugness of it. At least Joe Walsh had a sense of humor.

 

4. Jackson Browne

People think he's deep because he has pretty hair and an ageless face. One of his more bearable songs, "Take it Easy," was sung by the Sultans of Smug, The Eagles. He boasts about having seven women on his mind, four that wanna own him (he knocked them up), two that wanna stone him (they caught him in bed with the other four), and one says she's friend of his (she's a doormat). And by the way, how did Daryl Hannah get those bruises anyway? Did she fall off her bike?

 

5. Henry Rollins

Music for punk roofers.

 

6. Pantera

The "Deliverance" of metal.

 

7. Crash Test Dummies

Mmmmmm no.

 

8. REO Speedwagon

I can't fight this feeling. They make me want to kill.

 

9. Sammy Hagar

"Tomorrow may come, tomorrow may never come. Can't you hear Jamie cryin'?"

 

10. Nerf Herder. Mötley Crüe

Don't go away mad. Just go away. And stay away.
