I f'n hate Crosby Stills Nash & Young. First of all, he has too many names. Second of all, he's a pothead, and I hate druggies. So therefore his music is garbage, and I want to punch him in the face.

I think it's fair to say Vedder is clearly Pearl Jam to people who don't know anything about Pearl Jam, but fans clearly can tell you every single detail, and even tons of non-fans (I wouldn't consider myself a huge fan) probably know McCready.

I'm making assumptions here, but I'm assuming the guy a few posts up hates Mr. Jam because of his politics. Pearl might be a bit of a loony lefty, but I don't understand why people can't separate someone's work/art and their personal beliefs.

The same thing happens with Sean Penn. Just because Mystic River likes pretending to be a liberal activist apparently that means he's also the worst actor of all time.

If I hated every actor/musician I disagreed with for political, religious, or any other reasons (such as disagreeing on a favorite color), I wouldn't have much left to enjoy watching or listening to.
