The leader of the bland

What is the blandest rock band ... IYNSHO?

It's a toss up for me between The Doobie Brothers (before Michael McDonald came in) and The Steve Miller Band. Just dull dull dull dull dull dull.

The trouble is, the band that most immediately came to mind is not a rock band by any definition no matter how generous. And this fact caused me to realize that I can't answer the question, because I'm not enough of a music snob to know which bands are rock bands and which are just pop bands.

But my hands-down winner in the bland pop music category goes to Air Supply.

Seconded, with the definite exception of "Making Love Out of Nothing at All," written by Meat Loaf's favorite collaborator, Jim Steinman.

Of course, there's an irony factor involved with hearing Air Supply sing the line, "I can make all the stadiums rock!"
