[Jason Kirkpatri]

Sig says it all.

 

[Jan H]

Rush is my favorite band ever, probably because I've seen them live 10 times. But Led Zeppelin is the greatest band ever, and if I was a few years older and had been able to see them live (I'm 37), they would probably be #1. There's nothing like the live experience to really make one come to love a band.

After that:

3. Steely Dan
4. The Who
5. The Beatles
6. Van Halen (though I much prefer the Roth era)
7. Soundgarden
8. Radiohead
9. Queensryche
10. Yes
