mainstream bands
Jimmy the Squid:
I uh, really don't appreciate Led Zepplin. In fact I cannot stand Led Zepplin. This isn't becase every 14 year old guy who is learning guitar buys a Led Zepplin shirt and it's not because they are mainstream because they are not anymore. I don't like them because I find their music has not aged well. What I'm sure was once relevant and inspiring has become stale and boring. I don't think it is cool to like old music simply for the sake of liking old music and honestly, in a lot of the people I see who prattle on about bands like Queen, Led Zepplin and INXS, that is why they say they like these bands, in a poseurish attempt to look cool. I am sure, and I would hope, that this is not always the case; merely what I have seen in my limited experience.
I can see the contribution that bands like Led Zepplin made. I am aware that if they didn't exist then a lot of the bands I really like wouldn't exist either (though if Led Zepplin didn't exist there is a good chance that Wolfmother wouldn't either and that would make me so happy). I am also aware that in the early days of psychiartry horrible things were done to people in the name of helping them. Pain was a necessary side-effect. I am not happy that those things happened nor do I approve of them but they were exceptionally influencial in gaining the knowledge we have today. That is basically how I feel about Led Zepplin.
I do however quite like the Beatles. I even like Tool, though they are incredibly self absorbed sometimes I quite like a lot of their songs.

Why is it more difficult to do vocals and bass than guitar and bass?

Hmm... guess that is the best answer I am likely to get. Oh well, my singing voice and I aren't on too good terms anyway, I don't need to worry about it all that much. I will probably end up trying to sing at some point in the future, though, I will just have to hope that nobody with too sensitive ears it there when I do.
Bah, Scary, I am barely awake right now, just about every time I try to capitalize something, I have to go back and do it again because my left pinky finger is apparently asleep, and I capitalize a letter about three words down.
