No vote here- never heard Tim, and Wilco is suitable for nothing but derision.

I voted for Tim but I am still the enemy. Hence the complexity of these polls.

Do they join "OK Computer" fans on that list, or are we off the list by voting for "Tim"?

On average, a total of 72 posters have been voting in the polls. The 18 or so posters who have yet to vote here can turn this around in the Mats' favor. Tim is their best album. C'mon now.

The reg rock crowd is now divided.

I was divided. Am I, therefore, reg rock?

I went with the best album, not the one I thought people would think I was cool for liking.

TIM

This was kind of close for me. Being There has always been my favorite Wilco album. I don't think any of there subsequent albums really improved the formula, and I like Tweedy's more direct songwriting. However, Tim is a top ten all time album for me. It has everything you'd pretty much want in a rock'n'roll album.

It's no different now - people trying to outdo ! each other in extremes. There are people who like X, and there are people who say X are wimps; they like Black Flag.

Liking both doesn't necessarily put you in the reg rock crowd.

Point of Clarification:

Is it the Reg Rock Crowd versus the PPDD grouping?
Also what group is in opposition of "The Machine"?
I've forgotten the cliques.
