Serge Blanco / Glen Osborne

Much as though I agree Osborne is under-rated, I don't think Blanco over-rated. He's up there with the best of all time - Cullen, JPR, Nepia etc.

Nirvana / Pearl Jam

Agreed. Have had many discussions about how Nirvana wouldn't have had the longevity that Pearl Jam have had, if Cobain didn't top himself. Died young and got unnecessarily elevated to music-god status.

Everything was set up for Eddie to an hero into immortal status. 27, huge debut album dealing with depression and suicide. Instead he stuck around to make some more great tracks.

Omar from The Wire comes to mind for mine for that category. Such a great character

[Nepia]

@aucklandwarlord Is he even a bad guy? He doesn’t target civilians and some of the actual po-lice (although not the main crew) are dodgier than he is. Marlo is a bad guy and I was never cheering for him.

both awesome shows.

@majorrage said in Overrated/Underrated:

Scotch / Bourbon

Both have thier place! But when it comes to the lower end, an average bourbon is much better than an average scotch.

[Kiwiwomble]

@taniwharugby definately, id add

single malt / blend

a good blend can be very very good
