Band Face Off - Round 2

[trackaghost]

Well, Springsteen and Petty met each other in the ring, and while Bruce looked like he could sustain quite a few punches, skinny-boy Tom left The Boss bruised and bloody with 29 glorious votes to Springsteen's not too shabby show of 17.

So Round 1 to Petty, and his Heartbreakers of course, although the vote is still open!

Onto Round 2.

Both of these ear-deafening British rock legends have amps that go up to 11, but which will you choose?

Oh and don't forget to defend your choice.

Wow, that's a tough one for me. they're both very good. I gave a slight edge to The Who though.

[Neal]

Because Roger Daltry and Pete Townshend are both super creepy.

[DavidMn]

Hey this brings up something I heard awhile back. I had heard that The Who and Led Zepplin didnt like each other that much, especially Pete Townsend and Jimmy Page. Is there any trugh to this?

Let me name drop here and say, I was talking to The Who's manager last week and he told me he also used to manage Jimmy Page. In fact he was interrupted half way through by a phone call from the man himself! The Who's manager and Jimmy are still good friends at the very least

Didn't Page play guitar on "I Can't Explain"?

Led Zeppelin

This one isn't even close. I've never really liked The Who.

[shackin'up]

although i love The Who.

Almost nothing beats Physical Graffiti, I, II and III and IV. That's just too much strength.

[Serrart]

Led Zeppelin, no contest. The had the best living rock guitar player and Robert Plant's voice is way better than Roger Daltrey's for me.

Well, this one was easy!! The Who doesn't come close to Led Zeppelin. Not in their dreams IMO

[Beachwood Mac]

Led Zeppelin. Never could get in to The Who. Slept for 2 hours in the San Diego Sports Arena (sometime in the 70's) waiting for Zeppelin to show up very late for their concert. It was worth the wait!

[SteveMacD]

The Who. I love both bands, and I admit I have more Zep than Who, but I think The Who were more original throughout their career, relatively speaking. And, they invented the rock opera, which may actually hurt them.

[WildInTheWind]

Tough one. Well, Led Zeppelin is one of my all time favorites...so I guess it isn't that hard. THey are, in my opinion, one of the best rock and roll bands ever.

Ditto. Never got into any of their music.
