Bluff a Music Geek
Ever been smacked down by a friend with an encyclopedic knowledge of music? You can fight back without really having a clue. Got extra advice for stumping the snobs?
Adopt obscure tastes. So obscure they’re nonexistent. Tell your friend you’re a big fan of the Egyptologists or some other made-up group. (What’s he gonna say — “I’ve heard of every band, and that’s not one of them”?) If he can’t get a handle on your palate, your opinions are unimpeachable. […]
Yeah, we did something like this to pull the wool over a music snob friend’s eyes in high school. We even went so far as to create a fake concert poster to further prove our legitimacy/bitchiness.
