Stuff Tom hates that you like.
« on: May 23, 2009, 05:41:36 PM »
I love Tom Waits.  I like early Randy Newman.  Kevin Smith movies are badly directed and the writing is completely unrealistic, but I think they are usually pretty funny.  I love old folk and blues (Anthology of American Folk Music type stuff, not modern takes on it).

Stuff Tom hates that I like:
Blues music, baseball, The Band, Al Green, Pangaea and other old timey stuff.

Stuff Tom likes that I do not:
Most of the shows on Adult Swim, Unrest, Death Cab for Cutie

BTW, Tom doesn't hate Kevin Smith. It was all an act. Didn't you hear Kevin Smith on the show a few weeks ago?

Baseball, jazz, blues, Tom Waits. I don't love Tom Waits' music, but I like it.

Baseball and jazz music are the ones that stand out for me.

I am pretty sure there has already been a thread like this one. I am too lazy to find it.

The second I get sick, you people start coming up with your own opinions on things.

For shame.

I like two or three of Ryan Adams albums. He's not the best, but I like a lot of other songwriters of his type.

Just wanted to say that I completely agree with Tom on George Carlin. Just awful.

Yeah Tarintino is a rip off sometimes and he hasn't made that many great films lately but Pulp Fiction not holding up?

 I love Tom Waits, or at least about half of his output, but I can perfectly understand how someone would hate him.
