I love threads dedicated to dissecting the nerd psyche.

Not Rush. They're the best band to ever come out of Canada!

Please... Rush sucks... which is why it hurts to hear them called the best band to ever come out of here... (I'd say the Hip, BTO, Sum 41, Steppenwolf, Weezer...).

Hmmm... Weezer always had a high nerd fan-base up here... what with the songs that reference Dungeons & Dragons and all.

Sum 41 better than Rush? That's blasphemy!

ummmm.....HELL NO. Just cause he dresses on the geeky side, definitely doesn't mean he is a geek.

LOL Bloodhound Gang. The guy I dated last winter was nuts about them.

And as for Rush, all I can say is I went to see them with ex-Mr 33 and his best friend, and there were like 4 guys for every girl there. Then again, this may be another case of "the odds are good, but the goods are odd."

I'd have to say Frank Zappa.

Along with TMBG and Weird Al, he's the only other music that is universally accepted by my (very nerdy) group of friends.

It's got to be, like, Ween or someone . . . saying a stoner band like Zappa or a hyperpopular mid-90s alt-rock act like Weezer really doesn't fit the spirit of the question at all.

Zappa is about the LEAST stoner band out there. Frank Zappa was very strongly anti-drug.

TMBG. That was the band of choice for my fellow drama/speech/quiz bowl/model un geeks. It was rare if we didn't have them playing on a radio on the bus on the way to a contest.

And now I have totally outed my nerdiness in HS.
