In the media-happy, no-privacy world the Internet has created, most musicians are fairly careful about what they say in the public forum, especially toward other bands.
It's not that all bands get along and all musicians truly respect one another, but it's just much easier to not air that kind of dirty laundry in public.
Well, unless you're Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland.
Borland made what he probably felt was an innocent comment about Dream Theater via Twitter over the weekend. In response to a follower saying something positive about the prog-metal band, Borland Tweeted: "Dream Theater do not own. That's a fact. Refused own," adding, "No they aren't incredible. There's no debate."
We'll let Borland's Twitter feed take it from here:
“Stevie came to my 5th birthday and gave me a pawnshop Harmony. It didn’t have a gig bag, it had two paper grocery bags on either end”: Tyrone Vaughan descends from blues greatness – and SRV helped him start his guitar journey early
“Live right up to the last breath and stay positive about the world, your family and the environment you live in”: Mike Peters, frontman of the Welsh band, The Alarm, has died aged 66
