I'm starting a battle of the bands thread on this forum. How It Works - All 20 bands will verse each other once and the band with the most votes at the end will be the winner. For a win the band will get 4 points, 2 points for a draw and 0 for a loss.
ROUND ONE.

GNR were great for a brief period, but Queen were iconic.

And yea I went with Queen aswell. Guns and Roses are not really my cup of tea and Axl Rose is a complete tool

I've never heard a Guns and Roses album. I've only heard one song that came close to being any good, that welcome to the jungle song. Even that I've not heard in over ten years. So, a big zero.
Queen got my vote, although I've never heard any one of their albums all the way through.
Where are The Byrds?

I just wanted to select the 20 most popular bands. The Byrds were close and same with Crosby Stills and Nash and Nirvana

Hey, this is a great idea for a thread, and I'm in! But unfortunately I'm going to have to pass on this first round.
Sorry to be a downer right out of the gate, but I've always found both of these groups to be severely overrated (I know, Queen fans are most likely booing me right now!)
I like a few songs by both groups, but I probably dislike just as many or more. I don't need to hear Fat Bottom Girls or Mr. Brownstone any time soon. Sorry!
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater. I respect Queen as a rock history-making iconic band, but I believe the only song of theirs in my playlist is My Best Friend. GnR had my interest back in the day for about 10 minutes!
I truly expect Queen to rule this first round.

Probably not popular on a BB forum, but The Beatles are in their own separate league that no other artist can touch.

Queen got my vote, although I've never heard any one of their albums all the way through. Yeah, Queen any day o' the week over Guns & Roses. That's an easy one.

And the Eagles win a close one 4-3 against CCR. The next matchup is
The Rolling Stones v The Doors

The Stones have a larger body of work, since they were around a half century longer, but I'm a bigger Doors fan.

Zeppelin, by a landslide!
There was a time when I had every Zeppelin studio LP, and then later every Zeppelin studio CD. I think I've only ever had one Dire Straits album, "Brothers in Arms". I got tired of it after awhile.

Led Zeppelin all the way. No offense to Dire Straits, but LZ were a far better, and more influential band.

No brainer again.
U2 were great in the 80s. The Who are legends.
