Favorite Band of All Time

[CarlSpackler]

The Termites. I know the drummer very well.

[saevel25]

My top bands would be; B ruce Springsteen, Eagles, Linken Park, Green Day, Matchbox Twenty

If I had to pick one it would be a toss up between Bruce Springsteen and the Eagles. My dad was a big fan of both and I just grew up listening to them a lot. My tastes tend to side towards that style.

I really don't have one. No one band dominates what I listen to. If you narrow it down to period and/or genre, it would be easier to filter down the choices.

Same here. I listen to a lot of genres across different eras of music. I guess I'll try a top 10, in no particular order: Eagles, Stones, Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox 20, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Queen, Rush, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Audioslave. The list doesn't include individual artists or composers. I'm not quite satisfied with it, really.

What about the 17 other people on the stage with him when he plays???  My wife and I have been to over 50 of his shows.

You may have me by a couple of shows, but just a few.

I first saw him down in S. FL playing in bars by himself.  Other than Mike Utley, he'd be the same pretty much without any of them.  Coral Reefers come and go and no one ever knows the difference.

Eagles

Stones

Fleetwood Mac

The third season of AHS had mondo Fleetwood Mac in it along with Stevie Nicks. I forgot how amazing their songs are. Nicks even did a solo piece on the piano in an episode.

Love BBVD!

Love BBVD!

I figured you might, since you mentioned The Brian Setzer Orchestra.

I've never got to see him by himself.  I saw him first in 1983 in Cincinnati.  That was the show where Timothy B Schmidt coined the phrase, "Parrotheads".

He's had the core of the band, Mac McAnnally, the Mayer Brothers (guitar and bass) and Robert Greenwich for a long time (20+ years). Nadirah Shakoor and Tina Gullickson have been there a long time too.  I agree in the beginning he had a lot of turnover.  I miss Fingers Taylor.

Last summer Peter Mayer had his son on.

Impossible to list only one, so I'll extend it to a few, based on the albums I've listened the most to. Tool, Porcupine Tree and Opeth. All within the rock/metal genre, but very different from eachother.

Holy mother of pearl, @Zeph !! That's three of my favorite bands as well. Also like Between the Buried and Me. Do you like Stephen Wilson's solo stuff?

The type of music I'm into changes really frequently, so I don't have one overarching favorite.

Pretty sure this is code for "It's a tossup between One Direction and the Jonas Brothers"

Mine is The Black Crowes, with Pearl Jam a close second.

My goddaughter is a huge One D fan (she's 14) .  It is all we hear about.

Death Cab or Radiohead, I can't decide. Leaning towards Radiohead. Jeremy Enigk and David Bazan not far behind.

Since it's band, I'm excluding solo artists - like Elvis Costello, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Wonder, Al Green, etc..., if I had to pick 10, this is my top 10, but it still excludes so many bands I listen to a ton.

• The Beatles
• The Rolling Stones
• The Police
• The Clash
• The Pixies
• U2
• Massive Attack
• Pink Martini
• Stars
• Arcade Fire
