Opie & Anthony: Jim Hates Boston

The band, not the city. October 2, 2006.

[@markwilliams7054]

It's just as well Sib Hashian's career wasn't a total waste and that he managed to turn it around and reach the lofty heights of Scorch's PFG TV

[@cracksuperman]

More than a feeling was so fun to play on guitar hero

[@Jkroger100]

The first 2 Boston albums are fantastic!

[@Jkroger100]

@jhzheffph hhingklele Burn! Glad you found a forum for your incredible sense of humor.

[@mattmac1271]

Jimmy acts like he’s the foremost authority on rock n roll and then he’s never heard of turn the page by seger

[@gasstationpeanuts1814]

I don’t even understand how a guy that’s into rock/metal, and was in his mid-40s at that point, could have gone his whole life without hearing Turn the Page...

[@Acesman12345]

There was a time in my life where I thought I had the worst taste in music on the planet. That time was 13 minutes and 5 seconds ago. Jimmy sucks at music.

[@dorpth]

Jimmy's going to be awfully hurt when someone mentions that KISS isn't very good.

[@ang_ro]

"More than a feeeelingg..." "...IS IT?!" Lol 😂😂

[@lolboy546]

Jimmy is that friend everybody has who thinks he's an expert on music and refuses to even consider anything outside his tastes as good.

[@lt.finglefubledingler1972]

I gotta agree with him on this one. I’ve never heard I Boston song that didn’t annoy me and I’m from there

[@nicholasjohnson2499]

He likes kiss. Enough said.

[@davidverdugo6266]

Boston is better than kiss.

[@peepeepoopyhead510]

Imagine thinking KISS is one of the greatest bands ever and believing your opinion on music holds any weight at all

[@snarkasticdouche3863]

​@@peepeepoopyhead510I don't think he ever said they were among the best bands. He has a soft spot for them because they were huge when he was a kid. He does say Black Sabbath is one of the best rock bands, and he's absolutely right. Tony Iommi had his hand crippled, and not only did he find a workaround for it as a guitarist; he literally birthed a new genre of music based on the playing method he developed.

[@mattmurray517]

Mikkey Dee is an amazing drummer, very underrated and so incredible

[@WaakikiTheGoat]

A Kiss fanatic has no right to shit on any band

[@MattMonk]

My ears perked up when Jimmy said "Over at the Frankenstein Place" and "Superheroes". Superheroes was a deleted song in the US version of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, which suggests that Jimmy is a big fan of the movie/stage show. I think he was actually embarrassed there, which is hilarious.

[@ryansmith5287]

Bob Seger is rock n roll royalty. He made timeless music that will last.

[@kickassmage]

on a cold winter morning, on the time before the light!!!!

[@jgally74]

After this many years and neither did I, good stuff

[@Ichiboy900]

Best song opening is Rush's "Xanadu"

[@ShortFingeredShreder]

Here's why Yimmy's argument is flawed: 0:13 "Fucking 'More Than A Feeling'... What other songs did they have?" He obviously knows NOTHING about them other than that one song. Sometimes I question Jimmy's taste in music. I mean, his 2 favorite bands are Black Sabbath and KISS. On one hand, you have an incredible and revolutionary band who pretty much single-handedly created Heavy Metal, and you have a shitty, gimmicky rock band who's sole purpose was to sell merchandise.

[@gta4ratman]

Dude, what the fuck is wrong with your profile picture? xD

[@TheC0rpsezilla]

Since when are Sabbath, KISS, and Dragonforce eclectic?

[@beggo321]

Couldn't have put it better. 100% agree

[@MrAnarchojoe]

I'm not a Boston fan, but they're better than fuckin' Kiss.

[@Megathorn23]

Love that Jimmy had Holy Wars from Megadeth. Greatest band ever!

[@DC-lu3ii]

Boston is incredible

[@TheJollyMisanthrope]

Jimmy thinks that by being a Sabbath fanboy he can bash any other band with impunity because he has some kind of self-evident "street cred".

[@HumpX]

Bostons first album is classic. Its one of the first digitally recorded albums and it sounded great on even the shittiest systems. Yes, it was corny and corporate but it was irresistible if you were smoking a few joints

[@jtbedazzle]

I always heard that talking head’s stop making sense was the first digital recordings. Because, they wanted to record it live. And it was way too long to record on tape. So, Sony had to literally invent digital audio tape (DAT) for the recording.

[@BrendanOC]

Thank God, I love O&A and Jim and would be devastated if he hated my city. RIP Patrice

[@BishopAP]

I wish they had thought to play the Metallica version of Turn the Page so Jimmy could at least admit he had heard the song, even though it wasn't the original.

[@ShantyIrishman]

Boston is no hokier than KISS

[@CaptainMcTavish]

Jimmies taste is atrocious

[@Birdy890]

For me Boston is on the level of Queen, they're both amazing.

[@danielslack9201]

I love Boston....

[@moonie9091]

Every Boston song sounds exactly the same to me. Feminine singing and unimaginative guitar solos. Jimmy's taste in music is mind-boggling sometimes (like his stance on The Who), but I'm with him 100% on this.

[@Redbob86]

Agreed with one of the comments below, how can Jimmy like shitty bands like Kiss, but trash Boston and Bob Segar?

[@flyswatter45]

7:53 nice 311 reference

[@notoriouseagle1074]

My goodness, even I'M more open minded when it comes to music than Jimmy.

[@Talloweed]

The only time that Jimmy ever loses his sense of humor is when the subject turns to music. He becomes a totally different person whenever people start talking about music. It's wild.

[@randyd0514]

Mikkey dee played for King Diamond first. The intro to welcome home is sick. The song Jimmy doesn't know about are the ones The Prostitute was listening to when she was shitting in his mouth and it was such a big happy load passed out and she kind of just sat there and kept squashing it out. No seriously Jimmy likes a lot of crazyshit which is cool

[@babydispencer88]

I think the coolest thing I ever heard opie ever say was suggesting lamb of god for a band.

[@babydispencer88]

@@TooTallTurtle87 Good thing lamb of God isn't "scream" metal.

[@ournewevolution7392]

DRAGON FORCE FUCKIN STINKS

[@mikerod5077]

I like some of Jimmy’s music. He is absolutely right about Jim Croce and Harry Chapin

[@wannabesedated00]

@pretorious700 well said

[@paulthoresen8241]

Holy shit did he just say protest the hero? good boy

[@paulthoresen8241]

Jeffrey Hinkle You don't have to listen to it lol, I guarantee I would say the same thing about many bands you like, we just have different tastes

[@omfrusrs]

Boston is the shit... Jimmy is just hating for the sake of hating

[@mattmaccaronio5990]

Lmao he’s right though that you gotta have those 3 bangles songs

[@ryanbates362]

Pfft..more than a feeling...is it?

[@schizm01473]

@pretorious700 Crazy Newfie apparently...

[@BLACKpajamaRIOT]

Defensive Jimmy... This clip is infuriating.

[@MonstercoreXFilms]

I'd rather listen to Boston instead of Dragonforce, at least Boston never used a fast forward effect.

[@turner45555]

opie and ant are baby boomers and jimmy's gen x

[@RossKempOnYourMum01]

Mort Than A Feeling is hack. Any lyrics that refer to hearing a song on the radio or listening to a song are HACK.

[@randymullen511]

Jimmy lost me on this one.

[@Cougar139tweak]

Gene Simmons should take up BBQing in his living room like Brad Delp. Untalented clown

[@cracksuperman]

Neil Peart is the best drummer ever. No question. Period.

[@omenrama]

No Doubts drummer was waaay better.

[@mattmac1271]

Keith moon is

[@RancorousC]

Lamb of God is fantastic.

[@danielross2339]

"I like Ozzy I like Kiss, I have eclectic taste." NO THE FUCK YOU DON'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@KC0462]

Anthony might turn it off but I don't

[@KC0462]

@jhzheffph hhingklele Why? Do great songs have an expiration date?

[@keithhh2892]

Jimmy hates every band that, on a subconscious level, he realizes is better than Sabbath, which is a quite a lot of bands.

[@dankburrito4219]

Yeah, his Sabbath obsession really makes me hate a part of him.

[@MrOtwisted]

Good point, KISS is horrendous.

[@vedderisbetter29]

Should of went with Protest the Hero....underrated and canadian baby

[@agary5064]

Both 10x better than Kiss.

[@66ott7]

Thank You! I mean that sincerely. KISS is the worst band in the world. They are so bad it makes me mad. Thats how bad they are. Nails on a chalkboard

[@pretorious700]

@AsmitheAbyss there's no such thing as "bad" or "good" taste-it's all subjective. Who gets to decide? You? Me?

[@moonie9091]

@TheBesabana70 If I didn't like Boston, why would I listen to FM? Every classic rock station plays Boston's generic shit.

[@mikehink4062]

How the fuck does he say Dragonforce and Protest the Hero in the same breath? And then to suggest them over PtH??? I never thought I'd hear them referenced on O&A though, so that's a win.

[@EricTheAcktor]

Can't defend Jimmy on this one. Boston rules. They had the number two highest selling debut album in the world for a reason.

[@jwisetube]

Love jimmy. But his music collection stinks like body odor or sthumpin

[@mansoryO]

nickelback

[@montanathreehunna]

John Bonham = best drummer ever.

[@SkankHunt-kj8cf]

Montana Puckett right that's what i was thinking

[@MrBackoftheface]

Not so. Just not so. Bonham was legendary but far from the best.

[@hando88c]

Nicko MCBrain

[@pandavelli8176]

Nah, Lars Ulrich destroys him.

[@mattmaccaronio5990]

Probably but you can make an argument for Keith moon listen to my generation

[@max725power]

'Tallica and Disturbed rule

[@dirkfan12]

i usually agreee with jimmy on alot of shit,except music, segar is a legend, very underated voice,kiss is fucking awful musicians,great entertainers,but horrible songs, croce was the man, what am i saying,i cant judge,i love coldplay

[@chaosdecides]

If Sabbath is the pinnacle of music to you then you have a pretty limited taste. I'm a fan of Sabbath but they are nowhere near the best and Ozzie is a mediocre singer. Iommi is the reason Sabbath is great, not Ozzie's limited vocal range. Ozzie's solo work isn't that great and Randy Rhodes is the reason the early stuff was good. Starting to see a pattern? He's not fit to lick Rob Halford's boots.

[@stevievelarde6835]

Boston does suck

[@HoosierMan34]

Jimmy's taste in music SUCKS! I like Sabbath and KISS too but there are MANY bands that are BETTER, sorry.

[@mrqadaffi3638]

jesus christ opie can not be for real

[@sexualnapalm6209]

Kiss is just the worst, ozzys solo stuff after randy is fuckin horrible but I can't listen to Boston and other classic rock anymore either

[@roberttulibacki7332]

Dragon force stinks .

[@lt.finglefubledingler1972]

11:05 I fuckin haaaaaaate nu metal. Gayest vocals and every melody is the same

[@pretorious700]

all of those crappy Boston songs sound the same

[@mikeodonnell6799]

they stink

[@JaySports644]

Look I hated Boston..they sucked...But Bob Seger? Theyre bashing on Bob?

[@vedderisbetter29]

the worst taste ever in music

[@citylimit33]

it really is embarrassing to listen to jimmy talk about anything other than comedy. computers, space, music…

[@lolboy546]

Jimmy is that friend everybody has who thinks he's an expert on music and refuses to even consider anything outside his tastes as good.
