Is Obie funny?

I think he's funny. Some of the questions on there are so retarded, I think it's hard giving a real answer.

Not really sure whether he was funny... just wish he would answer some questions straight

I think he has a dry sense of humour. To be fair I asked BJ.com a question years ago and he gave quite a long serious answer...

In some of the documentaries BJTV he does come across as a bit of a prat, someone who is trying to act cool but misses by a mile.... I think he seems kind though.

Obviously there is something about him that the band like and trust completely to have him around for so long...

Theres nothing wrong with the guy. If I was answering dumb questions all day I'd take the piss thats for sure.

This is Rock and roll not life or death.

I'm sure he and the band would have a good laugh at this stupid poll.

I guess I'm in the minority, but I think he's hilarious.

You're not in the uptight camp thats for sure.

Man, if you hate everything about this band, why don't you just go and ****ing listen to something else. I've been reading your crap for a million years now. I'd bet a million bucks that most of you out there don't know shit about music and have never in their life even touched an instrument let alone play it or record it! Jon's character, his voice, the songs, the stage, Richie's soloing, prices, musical direction, commercialism, smoking habits, and now even Obie? How about Mike Rew? How about Paul Korzilius? Yeah, let's make it a thread about whether Paul Korzilius is a good tour manager. That'd be interesting! What the hell is wrong with you guys. I mean, you don't have to like everything, but you're so goddamn bitching all the time. I gotta tell you, if I were anyone in the band, I'd gladly do without you as fans.

Aloha !

For all those people claiming that he's funny: Could you show me an answer that is funny?

I've been playing the guitar for roughly 17 years now and have been writing songs since I was 16, have been recording those songs since I was 18 so I think it's fair to say that I do know shit about music. And with this, your theory ends here. For a first post under the nickname "difference" you haven't made any and only made yourself look like a fool. And for that, there's another board on the internet. Goodbye.

Used to be funny but the joke wears a bit thin now. By all means answer the stupid retarded questions with a joke, but its got to the point where its all jokes and no info.

Sometimes he's kinda amusing, but then it's just annoying when he doesn't answer a legitimate question properly

Heh, he's aware of this message board too isn't he? From what he said around the release of the boxset. Seb, you've probably sent him into a midlife crisis
