Favorite Bands

[Herkey#1]

The John Meeks to Iowa State thread got hijacked by a couple of us and I thought I would bring that discussion over here.

What are your favorite bands? VA likes to give me shit because I like GNR. Here's my list, in somewhat of an order.

1. Guns N Roses
2. The Doors
3. Nirvana
4. Tool
5. Led Zeppelin

6. Metallica

Basiacally I like hard rock and metal. But I also enjoy classic rock. The new shit they play on the radio these days does nothing for me.

Led Zeppelin
Beatles
U2
Avett Brothers
Allman Brothers
Pearl Jam
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Coldplay
Clapton
James Brown
Derek Webb

This is not in any particular order, just a list of bands that i've listened to extensively.

I love blues, classic rock, funk, some folk/indie stuff.
Glad we can at least agree that there is nothing mainstream worth listening to Herkey.

Slipknot was makin the rounds in Des Moines before I moved here. Never have been a huge fan of them. However, I do like Stone Sour.

I like the way this board is looking so far. No teenie bopper or rap!

Lot more metal heads than I thought..Yikes.
