Yeah love those too. There are too many great bands..Breaking Benjamin, Shinedown, Seether...hard to pick 10

I gotta stick to the 90s-2000s stuff.....That 70s classic is just numb minding to me.......[/QUOTE]


With these lists I could probably guess age within 6-8 years. Favorite band is the bands of our youth. I had kids your age or a little older. i have heard plenty of Metallica, Nirvana, etc. I happen to like Audioslave but just a couple of songs by the former. I also got to hear Tupac, Coolio, MC Hammer. My kids were not always right

I dont like you guys music much.

Thanks for sharing.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Too short a list

add

Gov't Mule
Ozark Mountain Daredevils
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
Tedeshi Trucks Band

TTB is great. One of the best shows I've ever been to. Derek Trucks is the son of Allman Brothers drummer, Butch Trucks, and he's a pretty damn good guitarist.

Hard to say War is an American band, sorta. Eric Burdon was british and was the lead when they were popular. But they gots some great tunes either way you want to account for their nationality.

Nope...no sorta.
They're straight outta the LBC.
He was only with them for their 1st 2 albums.
They became more popular after he left...but he definitely did leave an influencing mark no doubt.
