favourite bands?

rubytuesday · #1 10-20-2007, 11:18 AM

I'm kind of new here so there might be a thread about this already but I was wondering what are your other favourite bands or artists other than Fleetwood Mac or Stevie etc. Most of the other music I like is different from Fleetwood Mac so I don't really know anyone else who also likes them and was wondering if anyone else here likes other bands like I do. So what are your other favourites?

Yeah, we've done this a few times. Most recently here.

Thanks

Interesting, I was having a read of that and one person mentioned a couple bands I like but the rest was all completely different to what I like. Oh well it doesn't matter, was just curious to see if I wasn't alone.

Thanks. I like that song too but probably because it's my name. The Stones aren't really my kind of style but I don't mind a few of their earlier ones though.

There are some pretty eclectic tastes around here, for sure.

I like A LOT of bands...but the only two that are right up there (for me) with Fleetwood Mac are Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers and U2.

I couldnt possibly understand how steely dan could be on someone's list of "favorite bands"...? But then again, a lot of people say the same thing about Fleetwood mac. I could be wrong, but for me, favorites have to have great records and put on great live shows.

That was elitist. I'm sure there are plenty of people who think Steely Dan records are great. hell, there are people who think stevie nicks records and shows are great. bwaaaahahahaha.

Yeah. Sorry. I'm a music dork. I used to work in a record store like in "High Fidelity"...I was the Jack Black character.

Anyway...ok I take that back. What I shouldve said is that I couldnt possibly fathom someone liking Steely Dan that much because...I dont think the records are that great...and the live stuff is less than favorable. But thats my opinion, as is Steely Dan being someone's favorite band. Neither does Steely Dan's music move me in even the most general way. I'm affected by Fleetwood Mac, U2, Tom Petty...etc. Steely Dan is like radio/elevator filler. And again, more people than not think the same thing about Fleetwood Mac.

Understandable. I could have safely assumed that's what you meant, but it wouldn't be the Ledge if I didn't rib you a bit.
