    No. They haven't evolved. They just have longer outros. Big fucking whoop.

    Idiot.

    Bob Dylan is an amazing writer but he blows in every other aspect.

    As for Stand Up. Sure it doesn't compare but I still think it is fantastic. I have found myself in a place where it is hard to hate anything DMB related, except for maybe Spotlight , but it still sounds great. Dave seems to be getting into the piano stuff and you can't blame him for trying. Hello Again, Bayou, ABI, Smooth Rider, Die Trying, Out of My Hands, Old Dirt Hill...these are awesome songs. It does a lot of different things, none of which suck.

    So what does that make the Big Three? Amazing? Legendary? I always wondered if there was a system for these adjectives cause Fantastic is a pretty wieghty term to begin with. Stand Up sucks.

    Re: What a bad album.

    Stand up shows some evolving tastes. Much like other bands, DMBs early years spawned a lot of really good stuff. However, playing these songs over and over probably gets a little stale. Thus, the band's writing matures/evolves. I haven't learned to appreciate it entirely, but the more I listen to it, the more I'm warming up to it. It just takes time.

    There's no evolving, and there's no experimentating. What Stand Up did, has been done thousands of times before by other artists. It sucks and it's absolutely not matured. It's devolved, a lot.

    I don't mean to flame at all, I swear. But the question I have got to ask is do you regret the Dreamgirl thread? I mean that thing is on the front page of this forum nonstop.

    No not at all.

    And I still think musically, it's the best piece on Stand Up. If the lyrics weren't pathetic, I'd actually *like* it. If I have to hear a SU song at a show, it'd be Dreamgirl / American Baby first.

    Some people like it some people don't. Why do people even post on this thread? its all a matter of opinions and theres no reason to get your thong in a bunch over all of this. Live and let live bros and chicas. Chill out and listen to what you like, if you don't like stand up don't listen to it, if you like it, listen to it. Simple as that.
