Ok that's a good point. However I'm still not big on Squier.

It's a Pinback kind of afternoon here today. And the snare drum on their song "Tres" sounds exactly like the first note of my ringtone. Makes it quite impossible to relax while listening to that one.

Led Zeppelin never really caught on with me. I've never disliked them, but there has never been a point in my life where I liked them more than moderately.

zeppelin is just so....meh, they range from horrible to mediocre imo

Right, so many more bands of that era worth listening to over them in my mind. Ever since I've been discovering more artists of that period, I don't find the need to listen to them anymore.

I don't really get the hipster hate for Zeppelin tbh

Indeed. I'll always love Zeppelin.

I listen to a couple of their songs occasionally, but I'm not fond of them as an album band.

Speaking of Blue Cheer, do you know which other bands (if any) that any members of the band have been part of are worth checkout out? There are couple of bands in particular that caught my interest from the name (Mint Tattoo, The Other Half) and I was wondering if you were familiar with them.

Zeppelin's one of those bands pretty much everybody likes in their phase of classic rock praise, before discovering all the lesser known bands of history. Some people end up dismissing them (and many other bands of their ilk, Cream, Floyd, Doors, etc.), others don't. I don't listen to them nearly as much as I once did, but I still enjoy them a fair bit. Guess I never really OD'd on any of those bands enough to hate them now.
