Bracket D:

1) Pink Floyd

11) The Police
2) Queen *** - tough one, but queen did more...that and solo sting blows.

 

Bracket A:

1) The Beatles
4) Van Halen
They're all getting tough and this is a hard decision for me. I like way more songs by the Beatles, they're the best at what they did, but I think that leans a little more towards Pop than Rock. We're talking Battle of the Bands here - who's gonna rock out harder on stage? Also, I need to start voting against Zep's fiercest competition - not that I'm scared, just to support Led.

3) The Doors
2) The Eagles
The Eagles have had the easiest path to the Sweet 16. They won't be rockin' down that path to the Elite 8.


Bracket B:

1) The Rolling Stones
12) Soundgarden
Who rocks harder? In my opinion, the boys from Seattle. I gotta do my best to represent for Grunge, my favorite kind of rock except Led Zep.

6) Nirvana
2) The Who
I'll be following up on Manny's reccomendations and getting some Who stuff soon, but until then Nirvana is better in my mind. As previously said, Kobain was probably the last great rocker and they were influencers of so many.


Bracket C:

1) Led Zeppelin
4) AC/DC
Anyone who's been following my previous comments in the Battle of Bands thread, was there any doubt? I'd say it's the hardest decision for me yet because AC/DC is in my top 10 bands, but it wasn't because it's Led Zeppelin.

11) CCR
7) The Ramones
Ramones beat Aerosmith in a last second shot by one? That's not right. Aerosmith vs. CCR woulda been a much tougher choice; this one is not.


Bracket D:

1) Pink Floyd
4) U2
Hey Manny, I got Dark Side of the Moon yesterday, and I'll definitely be getting more Pink Floyd. Until then, I think U2 deserves to go on moreso than them. Also, the fact that U2 has stayed around as long as they have helps. I'm not saying at all there stuff today is as good as the older stuff, but they still manage to sell a lot of new albums.

11) The Police
2) Queen
I don't comprehend the infatuation with the Police here. I guess I might check out what they've got.
