Jaimoe Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Blender rightly goes after a couple of Canadian artists, but they should have added a couple more: Our Lady Peace, Diana Krall and The Tea Party - but the latter never made it big in the States (lucky for them).

AD Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 I've seen 7. 8 if you expand Jagger to include the Stones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tungsten Gruvsten Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 What, no Ratdog/Weir!?!?!...it's gotta be at least considered music... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak By Night Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 The real question is - were any of those Manowar?Sadly, no. But I'm 3 for 3 on Jaimoe's list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 I've seen 7. 8 if you expand Jagger to include the StonesHis solo stuff is too dissimilar (menaing sucky) to the Stones to be considered, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hal Johnson Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Call me old fashioned, but if you include "The Doors" in your list of top 50 worst bands of all time, doesn't that make you clinically retarded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wooly Mammoth Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Call me old fashioned, but if you include "The Doors" in your list of top 50 worst bands of all time, doesn't that make you clinically retarded? I wouldn't put them in my top 50 worst bands of all time but I can't say I am a fan. I dug them in my youth but just don't get them anymore. Jerry Garcia, fwiw, was also not a fan, so I'm in good company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wooly Mammoth Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Skinny Puppy are/were a pretty cool band. surprised they were well known enough to make that list. (aside: you can see me in the audience in their concert video/DVD ain't it dead yet?)they are one of only two bands that I've seen on that list. the other is Blind Melon. I'll be seeing mt third, Arrested Development, next month at the Grasroots Festival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak By Night Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Reading the fine print in that article, it was written prior to 2006 and I'm pretty sure somebody posted in here back in the day. It's time the 50 worst list was updated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's time the 50 worst list was updated!Indeed. A new list should include the artists I already mentioned along with: Ke$ha, Stereos, Sum 41, Fergie, Hedley, Puddle of Mudd/System of a Down/Nickelback/Three Days Grace, Katy Perry and of course, Genesis.

Tungsten Gruvsten Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 hehehe never noticed that but maybe it was easier just to reprint it as 'news' - I mean really, how the hell do you limit the shit since 2006 to 50 bands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishtaper Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 LOL, I actually quite like at least five of these bands and might possibly even put one of them in my top ten favourite bands. Some funny stuff in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I'm surprised Jewel was overlooked, even back in 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I've seen 14 of those bands/artists in concert. Can anyone top that? 10.I sure was getting nervous there- thank god for that putrid Top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Putting Emerson, Lake and Palmer at the top of your list really says more about your musical inclinations if anything, not that the criticisms aren't all valid.And I liked Homebelly Groove!30 RICHARD MARXThe devil-king of MORWhen it comes to the dreaded genre of adult contemporary, few were as archetypal as Winnetka, Illinois–born Richard Marx. The unbearably syrupy “Right Here Waiting,†from 1989, remains his most far-reaching hit, but it shows the extent to which America fell for his combination of mullet, Wedding Singer apparel and softer-than-soft rock that it was his third consecutive number 1 single.Appalling fact Before his brief burst of stardom, Marx honed his painfully bland art as a backing singer for Lionel Richie.Worst CD Repeat Offender (Capitol, 1989)And really isn't Walking In Memphis Richard Marx biggest tune or am I cnfusing him with Marc Cohn.

Northern Wish Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 You can clear it up on July 9th at Bluesfest- where Marc will likely close with Walking in Memphis.I also have to say that song is a guilty pleasure of mine..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
