Most overrated band of all time

Dylan's an acquired taste, wish I'd paid attention to his writing sooner...
Dylan is a genius songwriter. As for his performances….meh…. He took his obsession of Woody Guthrie, mimicked him, and somehow it made him famous
 
The Grateful Dead.

The amount of people I’ve heard claim it’s their favorite band boggles my mind.

I think a big part of the allure of the Grateful Dead is being part of the “club.” Similar with KISS, Phish, Insane Clown Posse Juggalos, Taylor’s ‘Swifties’ etc.

Some people enjoy being part of that fan group and I suspect a sense of community comes with it- more power to them, if people enjoy it then who am I to judge.

How does one define " band "? I see a lot of hate for country made post 2000 and even Garth which are all valid but in a thread callled " Most overrated band of all time my mind goes more to overplayed rock or pop music. Most country acts are just solo acts with a touring band that isn't even on the record.
