Re: Will DMB get the Rolling Stone cover for the album?
"mainstream" popularity is a relative term in todays music market. Album sales are so abysmal that it isn't hard for a band with DMB's fanbase to get a number #1 album. So I'm not sure that argument is really relevant in terms of RS.
If you subscribe to RS (like I do) then might have realized that RS has bands that they push as "good bands." All of this is backed up on their little lists they make, covers, stories, reviews, and whatever else. And I've noticed that DMB, and especially Dave himself, are on the list of "good bands." Even someone who posts here regularly should realize that RS runs an article concerning Dave or DMB almost every issue, and that is not an exaggeration.
My point being, there is no doubt in my mind they will get the cover...unless the album is absolute shit, they will most certainly be on the cover.
