rolling stones

[ARSENAL]

Are they the greatest band in the world or what? 

[Englishbird]

what

[ARSENAL]

So who are your candidates then, Englishbird?

[Englishbird]

just being facetious really, sorry :o) I think it's too subjective to call really.  I heard coldplay described as that this morning.  I like both of them, but neither get me totally going, I will think about it .... :o)

[Englishbird]

does the 'greatest band' in this instance have to be current? (or alive?)

[ARSENAL]

Ok thanks.  I just answered your question about PD.  Personally I love the Stones.  You can't beat them live, that's for sure.

[ARSENAL]

Any band you like.

I went to see Rolling Stones live last year....they were very good... I think they are brilliant for old granddad's!! Lol

[Englishbird]

I'll go with Queen.

[ARSENAL]

Oh no!  Not my cup of tea - but fair enough - different strokes for different folks!  After all, I asked.

[happy_face]

Nah, I much prefer The Who if we're talking that generation

[dmsjps]

Sorry, everyone's wrong. Stiff Little Fingers are still the best and have been since 1977!

[Pootle]

In a word, no. If you are looking for diversity of music, sheer musical talent and stage presence, then look no further than Led Zeppelin. No other band comes close. Rolling Stones are good, no doubt, but they are a pop band churning out 3 minute songs. Oh, and just how is Keith Richards still alive?

[ARSENAL]

Sorry Pootle, but without the Stones there would be no Led Zeppelin.  The Stones are far better. 

[Sooper]

For me it has to be Pink Floyd followed closely by Led Zeppelin, i dont think that the Stones come close and Pink Floyds live show is out of this world

[pamnez]

NO.
