    >How dare a couple of yous list Rush on your worst five????????????

    BWAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!!! And I'm CANADIAN too!!!!!

    Had a friend who LOVED these guys, so I was exposed to them a lot more than I wanted to be. Actually; when I was at the U it seemed that EVERYONE loved these guys. If it wasn't for that I'd probably hate them a lot less.

    But I gotta say, the WORST band EVER; bar none, has got to be.......

    GOATLORD. Buit I didin't mention them 'cos I don't think anyone else her ehas heard of them.

    (Watch: someone's cousin'll end up being the frontman or somesuch....)

    All grunge bands are at the top of the 'worst' list for me. I was in college at the time grunge was big, and I still did not get into it.

    VAN HALEN with David Lee Roth was the greatest band ever. Their first album is my favorite album of all time. Runnin with the Devil, Ice Cream Man, Jamie's Crying.

    Don't you guys be bad mouthin' ABBA. They were f'ing awesome in their own way!

    I'm not a big Bon Jovi fan, but Living on a Prayer is one of the greatest rock anthems of all time. Reminds me of weight lifting in high school. A real pump you up song.

    Happy to see Duran on another list. My faves:

    Duran duran
    Belle & Sebastian
    The Smiths
    A-ha
    Depeche Mode

    This is an interesting thread, because I think music gives a little insight into what everyone is like. Beyond what megos we collect.

    I don't think Rush should on the worst list, because musically they're very gifted, but Gedde Lee(sp?) is like nails on a chalkboard for me.

    My wife wanted to go to Poison this year with Ratt opening for them. Good music but Ratt did nothing to get the crowd into it. Really a boring performance.
    That's basically the "word on the street". A shame.
    (or as Ratt would say: A "Shame, Shame, Shame")

    Wrathdemon listed "The Monkees"...and I didn't say a word. I LOVE the Monkees! And to be fair...every one of them could sing, and they eventually did learn to play Thier Instruments.
    I never jived with the idea of deriding a band just because they didn't play their
    instruments or something of that nature---I mean if you like "them" you like "them"
    ---for better or for worse---ya know?

    I appreciate the MONKEES and what they brought to the table as a manufactured
    and calculated BEATLES "ripoff" Their history as frustrated musicians and superstar icons
    is interesting and their rock legacy is undeniable.

    I liked the stuff I head off of JUSTUS, the album where they played all the
    stuff, COMPLETELY themselves for the first time...and their 60s show cracks me up

    We have to be honest...even at the risk of offending.

    Did RATT open for bands at any time post-1984 thru the end
    of their "heyday" in the 80s?

    Either way----when did you see them?

    I hear Ratt's singer has a horrible rep as a "live frontman" type
    but I remember loving the show I saw, but, then again, I was 14
    and it was my first arena show

    Christian Rock band that KISS's label tried to push off and they failed miserably. I got the LP I picked up at a junk store because it looked cool and I was curious who it was. Now I know.

    Hard not to love a guy who moved from NYC to Berlin, bacause "New York isn't decadent enough." Wow.

    Somewhere in the depths of the Basement, I still have my Raw Power album on limited edition orange vinyl!
