fuzmeister: What Percentage of Our Opinions are Dictated by Others?
This isn't a post about politics contrary to what some people might think after first reading the post title. It is actually a post related to a conversation I had with my bassist this afternoon.
He stated that he thought Pink Floyd are overrated. He proceeded to describe them as "stoner music." Now, I know this name is often prescribed to Pink Floyd among other psychedelic/progressive rock bands, but I think this is an image only propagated by retail outlets and people who have maybe heard Dark Side of the Moon once or twice while getting baked with their flatmates.
I'm just curious what people think of this. Do you feel your opinions are generally wholesome or are they purely dictated by the media and others?
Mood: Intrigued
Music: Pink Floyd - Apples and Oranges
Tags (beta): music, philosophy

I have heard that Pink floyd was doing drugs wihile making music but But does that take away the qulity of the music being played? I personal don't like drugs. I've been around Drugs and yes, smoke weed, long story. Some wired stuff happens when puffing that weed.
