    With only a quick check, looks like that chart only has 40 bands on it from all history. So, does chart officially make Phish a Top 40 band of all time.

    just saying

    The results scream of racism. Not bothered enough to look into the methodology though.

    "Smart people prefer John Mayer over Pink Floyd."

    There's no accounting for taste.

    I can't take this seriously because Rush isn't represented. Total, shocking oversight by the guy who did this study.

    I think Lil Wayne may be too intellectual for me. I prefer grunting and banging things with sticks in rythym.

    'Rounnnd here I ain't believin' this list since Counting Crows is third highest on the list.

    Oh, and Jazz called, and wants to see a Jeopardy match between its fans and those of the Goo Goo Dolls.

    So the smartest people listen to the most simplistic music? Classical and metal music doesn't make an appearance at all? Why entire genre's listed in some instances and specific music groups in others? Totally stupid.
