And Whiny Sensitive Boys also starts to include lots of the emo bands as well.
Perhaps WSB is the uber-genre under which the Strum Dudes and emo bands fall?
There is no emo girl band that I know of. Is there the possibility of one? People expect girls to be emo already so I think they can't qualify....hmmm.

I was just thinking that The Indigo Girls are proto-StrumDudes.
I love my guitar guys, some more than others, but I loves them.

Interesting. But they certainly don't qualify as emo and they can't go under WSB so that as the main genre under which Strum Dudes falls is out.
The more I think of it the whole definition of emo revolves around it being from a guy's perspective.
Also - the early fan following of BH and DMB came out of the neo-Deadhead and Phish crowd. The jam-band angle has to be taken into consideration in classification.
by this classification I can see why you'd include Elliot and Jeff.
Okay, then, Mopey Dudes, or Mope Rock, or Annoying Mopey Whiney Dudes Who Keep Telling Me My Body Is a Wonderland Until I Want to Smack Them Silly.
But I don't think that would fit on te category sign at Tower.

hides his Belle and Sebastian and Sarah Records from Lyra. Shit, now Jim E-T can see it. Throws an LP cozy over the lot...
All the nice singer songwriter guitar boys are belong to me.
DX, I am about to go to the post office to send you Hec's and Tina's fantabulous CDs. Keep an eye out for them.
Once again, I think I'm the only person writing comments on the liner notes.
Dude, I *love* Belle and Sebastian, and Elliot Smith. Don't like Jeff Buckley's voice in general, but I like his cover of "Hallelujah."
It's only John Meyer and the other fratcoustics who have earned my ire.
joe boucher and I both wrote some comments on the liner notes we've had.
