    Bracket A:

    1) The Beatles - The Doors were great but I don't like them that much to vote them over a band that I have about every album of theirs.
    3) The Doors

    Bracket B:

    1) The Rolling Stones
    2) The Who - I may wind up voting for them all the way to the end if they get there. They are that great.

    Bracket C:

    1) Led Zeppelin - I like the Ramones A LOT but can't vote for them here. Zeppelin just too good.
    7) The Ramones

    Bracket D:

    1) Pink Floyd - Queen has really shot into being one of my all-time favorites. The only bands I like better than them are The Who, Zeppelin, The Cure, and you guessed it - Floyd.
    2) Queen

    Bracket A:

    3) The Doors

    Bracket B:

    Bracket A:

    1) The Beatles - these guys were just so diverse and put out so many great songs it's hard not to vote for em, but i'd rather see the Doors in concert - oh well....
    3) The Doors

    Bracket B:

    1) The Rolling Stones
    2) The Who - toughest pick right here, but The Who just flat-out rocked harder.

    Bracket C:

    1) Led Zeppelin - i like the ramones, but they cant hold Zeppelin's jock strap. Greatest rock band of all time IMO.
    7) The Ramones

    Bracket D:

    1) Pink Floyd - from top to bottom, DSOTM may be the greatest rock album of all time.... and they totally kick ass when you're stoned :D
    2) Queen

    1) the beatles
    it it possible that they are underrated on this board? i think so. on what kind of stage are the freaking doors blowing them out on? mccartney just as a musician is three times more talented then anyone on the doors. i just don't get the doors at all i guess.

    1) the rolling stones
    i was going to vote for the who because they rock and entwistle and moon blow me away but after looking through some albums the stones have to get my vote. them being around far past their prime has kind of clouded my judgement on just how great they were.

    1) led zeppelin
    they're going all the way to the end, should be a good one with the beatles.

    1) pink floyd
    not a huge queen fan. i think the who should have been a one seed here instead but the floyd are good.

    The Beatles in a rout.

    Bracket B:

    1) The Rolling Stones
    2)

    The Who rocked more, but the Stones just have many, many more great songs.

    Bracket C:

    1) Led Zeppelin
    7)
    Led Zeppelin, but not by a blowout. Good, tough battle.

    Bracket D:

    1) Pink Floyd
    2)
    Pink Floyd is better to me because Queen were sort of silly at some level.

    The Beatles

    The Who

    The Ramones

    Queen

    =========================

    I think the early seeding sucked. But I'm happy with how it shook down. The final eight are fine (I'm way psyched The Ramones made it). And I didn't have a hard time with any of these choices. If my picks win though, the final four will be a b****.
