roflmao! I've never heard it put quite that way....good one! I think they probably would have been alot better if they hadn't been so stone most of the time..but then again, that could be said of just about any band and there were alot of good ones. on second thought, maybe you're right..and they were just Bad!!!

I'm afraid they were just a bit rough in the music skills department. Lots of "classic" rock was produced by musicians with very limited skills (witness the early Beatles guitar solos... um... such as they are!) I guess the nice thing about music is that intensity of spirit can compensate for lack of refinement!

never really gave that much thought, but if you dropped that much acid bet you will sound about the same - good question though

No, they just had really crappy equipment.
