This week we explore bands we dislike, bands we once disliked but came to appreciate later, and bands we used to like but lost interest in.
Discussed: Anthrax, KISS, Poison, Rush, Triumph, Genesis, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, the Who, Duran Duran, the Smiths, Van Halen, Eric Clapton, Cream, Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Motörhead, et al.
Also: more on the perils of smartphone addiction and how it can disrupt creativity, as well as the essential exchange of energy between performer and audience.
