I am a musician and a non hipster. When I first saw Daniel Johnston I thought the same thing. I couldn't believe the hype around this guy. I saw a video of him on a stage, horribly strumming on a guitar. I thought it was a joke. So, I went digging around trying to find something he did that had any inkling of merit.
