Ay-yi-yi-yi indeed, since your argument appears to be "Even if you think
the Rosenbergs suck [which, incidentally, I didn't; I quite liked them],
you should support them, because they're One Of Us."
On the other hand, some of us think that supporting mediocre bands just
because they've got the basic moves down is one of the things that got "the
power pop scene" in such bad shape.
