From here on out it’s all about who I like better. I realize one band might be better technically, but I’m going on the feel factor! Bracket A: 1) The Beatles 3) The Doors Bracket B: 1) The Rolling Stones 2) The Who Bracket C: 1) Led Zeppelin 7) The Ramones Bracket D: 1) Pink Floyd 2) Queen
Pretty sad that not a single band listed in the Elite Eight released their first album after 1976. Did rock music really die 30 years ago? Beatles Stones Led Queen
Bracket A: 1) The Beatles (Finally,This is the End) 3) Bracket B: 1) The Rolling Stones (the Who should have never got this far,even townshend called them the greatest rock and roll band in the world when the Stones were inducted into the hall of fame) 2) Bracket C: 1) Led Zeppelin (Sedate them already) 7) Bracket D: 1) Pink Floyd 2) Queen (abstain. both of these bands are overrated)
Bracket A: 1) The Beatles * 3) The Doors Bracket B: 1) The Rolling Stones * 2) The Who Bracket C: 1) Led Zeppelin * 7) The Ramones Bracket D: 1) Pink Floyd * 2) Queen
all my picks made it! i cant believe the ramones made it - hooray! (with that being said i will now send them to the hangman) Bracket A: 1) The Beatles *** 3) The Doors Bracket B: 1) The Rolling Stones *** 2) The Who Bracket C: 1) Led Zeppelin *** 7) The Ramones Bracket D: 1) Pink Floyd *** 2) Queen
I just went back and looked at mine, I had 6 of our current 8. I had Grateful Dead against the Beatles with the Dead beating the Doors to get in, and I had the Police beating Queen to take on Floyd. This has been fun, thanks again Manny.
Bracket A: The Beatles- blow out city Bracket B: The Rolling Stones- i like the who but i do get bored with them. stones just have too many great songs. Bracket C: Led Zeppelin- the inner punk in me hates to do this but on the strength of physical graffiti, led zep by a hair. i was at a friends the other night listening to the ramone's, mission of burma, agent orange etc. then we started listening to sabbath and i insisted that my friend play physical graffiti next. they are out of their minds on this album. Bracket D: tie
These bands are getting their tickets punched to the dance. Bracket A: 1) 3) The Doors I dont like the doors or the beatles Bracket B: 1) The Rolling Stones 2) I don't like the stones or the who Bracket C: 1) 7) The Ramones The ramons are my team to win it, but they probably wont. Bracket D: 1) 2) Queen Take queen over floyd, cause queen is less sorrier. I like Queen.
Bracket A: 1) The Beatles *** 3) The Doors Bracket B: 1) The Rolling Stones 2) The Who *** Bracket C: 1) Led Zeppelin *** 7) The Ramones Bracket D: 1) Pink Floyd *** 2) Queen
Beatles- if it weren't for the Beatles we all would still be listening to Elvis. Stones - The god fathers of the self destructive lifestyle, yet they still alive! Zep- as if this was even a choice Pink - Queen is just creepy, an neither is quite in the same class as the choices above. Notice it's an all British ballot, why are they just better historically than American bands? You've got Aerosmith and the Eagles (and in my mind Little Feat, The Allman Brothers Band) but really they aren't in the same class for creativity, volume of production, universal appeal and longitivity.
