| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01  | What the fuck?! Clapton, the greatest guitarist ever... not on the list! Pink Floyd, DSOM spent 14 years on the billboard charts... not on the list! The Who, should be ranked in the top 5, ranked after Blondie!  I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Apr. 01 | Like i said in the Music board, did Steve C or Dru Boogie make the list? EDIT: What about Scarhead??? Shane Falco in The Replacement on the last play of the game: "I wish I could say something classy and inspirational, but that just wouldn't be our style. Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory... lasts forever."

And how does Husker Du have more influence than Pink Floyd? Whatever, Spin sucks anyway...  NEVER FORGET!!! | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | It's based on nothing. If it were based on album sales or awards or critical acclaim you'd see The Eagles, Springsteen, and Billy Joel all up there.

| Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | How can it be bullshit? It's their opinion. This is THEIR Top 50... not yours. You are free to disagree, I suppose. But to call it bullshit because your favorite bands aren't on it? Seems a bit petty to me. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 01 | red hot chili peppers definitely deserved to be higher(or lower, whatever) on the list, they should have been better than 50. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | quote:Earl, I mean Kid, is just happy Public Enemy made the Top 10. When they say GREATEST, that means somewhat objectively that these bands were THE most influential. It's not SPIN's TOP 50 Favoritest Bands Ever ever, it's GREATEST. And can you honestly tell me that Sly and the Family Stone is better than The fucking Doors? "It appears my wee wee has been strucken with rigor mortis." | ||||

And Kid, you can defend your "it's my opinion" in all your other discussions, but you are a spokesman for Spin now too?  American Patriot, Pennsylvania resident, but original NYC listener. | ||||

Mullet Master Yo Gooch, Moron here... how's that for some fucked up shit... Fez is giving you status... Karma sucks, huh? | posted on 01-10-2002 @ 6:16 PM | | |||
| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | These are BANDS, not individuals, thus the exclusion of Dylan, Clapton, James Brown, etc. Radiohead influenced bands like : Blur, Travis, Coldplay Rolling Stones were always overrated, and Beatles are always the best. Blind Faith, the first supergroup should have been on this list, but oh well. Besides a few (Blind Faith already mentioned, Pink Floyd should be about 20, Husker Du is about 2019 back on my list, AC/DC is overrated, etc) I'm actually ok with the list. It's based on influential bands, and sometimes these lists are not focused on individuals living just in the NY/NJ area listening to the local classic rock  Here's a tip that will save you alot of grief and time... Don't believe in and depend on anyone but yourself. [/cent This message was edited by TheGooch on 1-10-02 @ 6:27 PM | ||||
