Yeah, it does suck that they face ZZ top in the first round. STP is better than a lot of these other bands, just not ZZ top.
Thank you, thank you very much. It's nice to see someone else acknowledge the fact. I will be quiet about them now. Yeah, true. I'm all for ZZ Top, also, just not in that seeding. Well, as long as Led Zep is alive all is well.
Bracket A: 1) Beatles 16) 8) 9) Def Leppard 5) Rush 12) 4) Van Halen 13) 6) The Cure 11) 3) The Doors 14) 7) Grateful Dead 10) 2) Eagles 15) Bracket C: 1) Led Zeppelin 16) 8) 9) Pantera 5) Black Sabbath 12) 4) AC/DC 13) 6) Dave Matthews Band 11) 3) 14) Stone Temple Pilots 7) 10) The Smiths 2) Aerosmith 15)
Bracket A: 1) Beatles 16) Tool Just an all-around ass-kicking... 8) Guns N Roses 9) Def Leppard Despite tragically losing half their members and playing 3 on 5, Def Leppard pulls away in the second half after Les Paul indignantly takes Slash's guitar away from him. 5) Rush 12) INXS Another all-around ass-kicking... 4) Van Halen 13) Dire Straits After a strong start with David Lee Roth in the first half, Sammy Hagar comes out in the second and nearly costs them Van Halen the game. They hold on to win anyway. 6) The Cure 11) Blue Oyster Cult I've gotta have more cowbell, baby. 3) The Doors 14) Chicago Jim Morrison kills Peter Cetera for the glory of love. 7) Grateful Dead 10) Styx Pshhhh... Do the Dead even have their own secret forum? 2) Eagles 15) Rage Against the Machine In the battle of bands I really hate, this one goes two overtimes, but RAtM pulls it out. At least they'll be too tired for the second round. Bracket C: 1) Led Zeppelin 16) Live Makes the Beatles ass-kicking look like a close game. 8) The Clash 9) Pantera Joe Strummer played a Tele, so he wins. 5) Black Sabbath 12) Alice in Chains I don't even know where to start. Ass-kicking. 4) AC/DC 13) Smashing Pumpkins Pumpkins go down when AC/DC figures out that Jimmy Chamberlain and Billy Corgan are the only ones who know how to play their instruments. 6) Dave Matthews Band 11) Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) DMB wallows in their own filth. 3) ZZ Top 14) Stone Temple Pilots ZZ Top is from Clutch City. 7) The Ramones 10) The Smiths Don't really want to see either band lose for some reason, but The Ramones have a better shot at advancing. 2) Aerosmith 15) Foo Fighters Just a random upset.

It's nice seeing why people voted for who they did. I really enjoyed that post, good humor. I especially liked the G 'N' R vs. DefLep comment; Eagles vs. Rage; AC/DC vs. Smashing; and Aerosmith vs. Foo Fighters
jo mama, Yea, you did it correctly. Got a scoring update through coma's post: Beatles leads Tool 15-0 Guns N Roses leads Def Leppard 10-5 Rush leads INXS 13-2 Van Halen leads Dire Straits 12-3 The Cure leads BOC 13-2 The Doors leads Chicago 11-4 Grateful Dead leads Styx 11-4 Eagles leads Rage 9-6 Led Zeppelin leads Live 15-0 Clash leads Pantera 11-4 Black Sabbath leads Alice in Chains 11-4 AC/DC leads Smashing Pumpkins 11-4 CCR leads DMB 13-2 ZZ Top leads STP 13-2 Ramones leads Smiths 11-4 Aerosmith leads Foo Fighters 12-3 If you decide to change your vote and it has already been counted as one of the first 15, please do a new post instead of editing your old one - that makes it easier for me to keep track.

Hmmmm, something tells me you are trying to sabotage this poll, or you just really have a thing for the underdog.
If it really mattered at this stage I'd change my vote for 2 of the matchups in each of the brackets, rest I am indifferent about or already agree with my posted pick. I will let it be anybodies guess what votes I would change. Seeing Manny's tally post at page 1 doesn't really look like I should worry about needing to change any votes. Also it is nice doing a kam impression (I think he was the one always voting for the lower ranked "team" in one of the other battles, although I am not sure)
