Love the talking heads, but the answer, without a shadow of a doubt is BLACK SABBATH.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Yeah but that True Stories movie was god-awful

Ha! The PowerPoint art wasn't so great either, but the message was cool.

I like some Black Sabbath, and I assume I'm in the minority here, but if I had to pick one band to erase from history, them or Talking Heads, people would be wandering around saying, "but, slinky..."

He seems like the guy to not GAS if people like his stuff or not

Well luckily you don't. Like I said, huge fan of the Talking Heads, but this is no contest. Personal opinions aside. It's Sabbath in a landslide.

I met him at a meet and greet before the PowerPoint dealio. They said you could buy an art book of his to be signed, but he wouldn't be signing any Talking Heads stuff.

I have their boxed set and it comes in a pretty cool book/sleeve thing that works as a coffee table book. Here it is:

So, I bought one of his art books and he signed it, but I also smuggled this bad boy in. After he signed the art book and we chatted for a minute, I pulled the set out and handed it to him. He let out a coy smile, looked around and then drew a tattoo on the baby's arm... A heart with an arrow through it and the initials D.B. in the middle. Hell of a coffee table book/conversation piece now. I love it.

Agreed. Have you listened to any of his solo stuff? I love this tune:

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Well luckily you don't.

Word. I'd take no joy in eliminating Black Sabbath from history.
