601's New Bands

The new bands are weak, but it doesn't matter cigar wise for me.

I think they both suck but the new ones are by far worse than the previous version.

But at the end of the day we don't smoke the bands.

That is absolutely correct, but working at two cigar shops I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt, bands make a difference. Not as much to the seasoned smoker, but the beginner, it means a lot.

That's why as a beginner it seems like a good idea to shop at a B&M. The conversations you have can educate you so quickly. I was ready to turn down the 601 (yes for the band), and then one of the workers at the shop suggested it. And yes it was delicious. Mmm...

I agree. Obviously, we have too much time on our hands to discuss how pretty bands are. LOL!

It's a conversation, simple as that. It has absolutely nothing to do with the amount of time I/we have on our hands. If there were no discussion on the board, it would be quite lame. There was a change of bands, a drastic change of bands, hell, I don't even smoke 601's, really don't care for them that much.
