Rock n Roll March Madness Bracket

[WhiteMamba]

Van Halen?

David Lee Roth's? 5 seed.

Haggar's 8 seed... SO a 6 or 7?

 

[Sox33OSU]

The Who is a lock for a 3 for sure. I cant put them ahead of THe Doors. THey join the next 8 in. Objections?

Which region should I put The Who in? Def not with the loaded Liverpool region. The Beatles, Queen and The Who is BRUTAL!

Put them in the Cleveland region. I have them upsetting PF.

 

[WhiteMamba]

I think locks for the next 8 spots are

Springsteen
Chuck Berry
Aerosmith
Lynyrd Skynyrd
The Who

3 to go. Chuck Berry here? Too high? Alice in CHains should be the highest Seattle band. But are they higher than Metallica. Pearl Jam too me is a 7 or 8. Nirvana the cinderella 12 seed seems very appropriate.

 

[4down20]

Springsteen sucks ass.

Alice in Chains should make the list.

Where is AC/DC?
SRV?

 

[outlaw okie]

AC/DC?

 

[outlaw okie]

Tool doesn't get much respect these days but I had to bring them up.

 

[WhiteMamba]

Ok. Here is how I am seeding the 1s and 2s.

and no, you dont have to be from that region to be seeded there.

Liverpool Region

1 Beatles
2 Queen
3 Aerosmith
4 Bruce Springsteen
5 Bob Marley

Nashville Region

1 Led Zepplin
2 Elvis Presley
3 The Eagles
4 Metallica
5 Jerry Lee Lewis

Cleveland Region

1 Pink Floyd
2 The Rolling Stones
3 The Who
4 Alice in Chains
5 Chuck Berry

Whisky a GoGo Region (L.A.)

1 Beach Boys
2 The Doors
3 Jimi Hendrix
4 Lynyrd Skynyrd
5 The Clash


Any changes. Lets stop here and focus on the first 20 in. Any should absolutely NOT be in. Any that ABSOLUTELY should be in?

SRV?

not a big Springsteen fan myself. But he belongs as a top 5 seed.

AC/DC... SHould they be a top 5? WHo do I take out? Opinions everyone....

You've got AIC but no Pearl Jam?

I love AIC but I thought Pearl Jam was a better band.

 

[WhiteMamba]

Tool doesn't get much respect these days but I had to bring them up.

They will make the tourney. ANd since we will be voting. They could make a run. I see Nirvana being a lower seed that possibly makes sweet 16.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Should be in: CCR

How far back? We including the 50s? If so, Buddy Holly needs to be in there.

 

[WhiteMamba]

You've got AIC but no Pearl Jam?

I love AIC but I thought Pearl Jam was a better band.

Yeah. I think the recent drop off of PJ is evident. AiC lost Staley and they seem to be iconic. I believe the masses go AiC as a higher seeded band. Would you be ok with them as an 7-9 seed? I need the suggestions.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Should be in:

Fleetwood Mac

 

[WhiteMamba]

Should be in: CCR

How far back? We including the 50s? If so, Buddy Holly needs to be in there.

WHere should we seed CCR and Holly? All rock and roll.

No pop. Sorry to the great MJ.

I'm biased and would rank them in top 5 in one bracket, but will settle for top 8 somewhere.

 

[WhiteMamba]

Thank you for all the input.

TO make it easier for me, when you list a band.... Include what seed you believe is appropriate.

For Example. Nirvana 12 seed

ty guise

Oh sure, absolutely. Eddie V isn't exactly a rocker anymore, so I get where you're coming from. For what they were during their hayday in the grunge era, I'd say an 8 is fair.

Some others that I'd consider for your upcoming slots -

STP - 9
The Cars - 6
38 Special - 8
The Smashing Pumpkins - 6
Billy Joel - 7
Boston - 10
Chicago - 9
Weezer - 11
Cream - 12

Some Cinderella low seeds I'd consider are Blink-182, Huey Lewis & The News, and Rod Stewart (or is he too adult contemporary?)

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Might as well put the Sex Pistols somewhere in the Liverpool Region...................but for sure Cream needs to get in there I'd say at least an 10..............and still no Sabbath?

Sex Pistols 12 seed
Cream 10 seed
Sabbath needs at least an 8 IMO

 

[4down20]

Oingo Boingo should get a cinderella seed IMO.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

The Kinks - 16
