fuzmeister: A Poll for Vent
Who do you all reckon the most-pretentious musical acts (bands or artists) are?
I'm not sure where my vote would go.
A few members of the Eagles seem to think they're shit doesn't stink, but then you have Joe Walsh who comes off as fairly grounded and humble despite being incredibly talented.
Some might say Steely Dan since the very nature of their identity as a recording act can seem pretentious. However, it's hard to argue the folks on their projects didn't have the chops to back up any kind of vibe of superiority.
I think most would be inclined to say newer or less-established acts that haven't manifested themselves over time as some kind of cultural icons. I don't know. What do you guys think?
Mood: Curious

On the opposite end of the spectrum is Dave Grohl.
