I know I'm gonna get flak over this, but I've never been able to get into 2 bands that are generally considered "greats". Both The Rolling Stones and Aerosmith just don't do it for me. I like a few songs from each band, but I just don't see what it is about them? I still respect them for sticking around soo long, but i can't get into the music.

Another one is Def Leppard. I think they are god-awful.

Now, I'm a HUUUGE Pink Floyd fan and there are a lot of people that don't like them even though I think they are one of the best ever. Note, I don't think they are the best even though they are my favorite, I'm intelligent enough to realize that mass appeal is a big factor in determining the popularity of a band. So in that way I respect the bands I don;t like, but I still look for the special something that everyone supposedly sees that I don't.
