    i already put this in the other one, but here we go. will there be a new thread for every round?

    A-
    1) beatles - easy

    8) g n r - ill go with the real deal, but leopard wins the 1-armed drum off

    12) rush

    4) halen - diamond dave-era only - screw van hagar!

    6) the cure

    14) chicago - not a fan of either, but I cant stand the doors

    7) the dead

    15) rage


    C-
    1) LED ZEP - john bonham would punch you in the face if you dared compare his band to these other pansies.

    8) the clash

    5) black sabbath - w/out sabbath there would have been no AIC

    4) ac/dc

    11) ccr

    3) zz top - nod to the locals

    10) smiths - damn, that’s really tough. both were huge influences growing up. i guess im a bigger homo than i am a punker, so ill go with the smiths.

    15) foo fighters - only b/c I don’t like aerosmith

    Bracket A:

    1) Beatles
    16) Tool
    Tool's got some good songs, but they never had a chance

    8) Guns N Roses
    9) Def Leppard
    Easy decision for such a close seeding

    5) Rush
    12) INXS
    I don't like 1 song by either band, but I've at least heard of a Rush song

    4) Van Halen
    13) Dire Straits
    Regular ol' 1st round blowout!

    6) The Cure
    11) Blue Oyster Cult
    Meh...could care less 'bout this one...

    3) The Doors
    14) Chicago
    Good shot of flawless victory:p

    7) Grateful Dead
    10) Styx
    GD should win without much opposition

    2) Eagles
    15) Rage Against the Machine
    If there is going to be a 1 or 2 seed upset, this is probably the best chance

    Bracket C:

    1) Led Zeppelin
    16) Live
    Led Zep is the best band of all-time as far as this poster is concerned.

    8) The Clash
    9) Pantera
    No comment

    5) Black Sabbath
    12) Alice in Chains
    Alice in Chains is amazing. I really hope they win.

    4) AC/DC
    13) Smashing Pumpkins
    Woulda been nice to see the Pumpkins stick around, but AC/DC, I don't need to explain...

    6) Dave Matthews Band
    11) Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR)
    Two great bands, but I'll go with CCR in a close call

    3) ZZ Top
    14) Stone Temple Pilots
    Cmon guys! Every tourney needs a Cinderella team; no one deserves it more!

    7) The Ramones
    10) The Smiths
    Know only 3 songs by the Ramones and don't think I've heard of the Smiths so this one was, ehhh...

    2) Aerosmith
    15) Foo Fighters
    Tough one, but they drew a bad matchup in Aerosmith

    jo mama,

    The Rolling Stones bracket is not until tomorrow. You need to vote on the Led Zeppelin bracket - see the first post in this thread for the matchups.

    ARGHHH! No respect for the goodness that is the Stone Temple Pilots. Very unfortunate.

    Alice In Chains should be getting more votes.

    This sucks.:(

    Just look at everyone else's posts; yes, it's A & C.

    EDIT: Manny, when I said this sucks, I wasn't b****ing about the setup like in the other thread. I'm just sad those two bands aren't getting more support.
