Add me to the crazy list with Brian. I find it annoying that so much glue is used on a band that you end up having to slide it off, which damages the wrapper or carefully cut it off with a pocket knife like one of my friends has to do. Arturo Fuente bands pop right off. I've never removed a Liga Privada band that ended up intact.

I would tell you to commit me but then I realized I'm already here with the rest of you nuts!

I hate LP bands, the Undercrown band is perfect but every single other LP is ridiculous, you can't slide it off, you can't peel it off. If you want to wait until the cherry heats up the glue then good luck, the band will catch fire first. I put a torch about 4 inches from the band on my first FFP, in vain hopes of getting the band off in-tact, turned the band black and it still wouldn't peel off. They must use JB Weld or something.

I have managed to slide a few off, never ever have I gotten one to peel off.
