Hmm, we have no books that are useful but there ARE about 40 copies of the North Korean Human Rights Act of 2004.

Think the library is run by a bunch of lefties?

I educate, not litigate, so odds are you'd have better odds suing me...

How do you know? They were so bad the last time I saw them live (on TV) that I couldn't tell what the hell they were doing.

Screw that. My lawyer bills me when I say hi to him after he calls ME.

They may have declined from what they were in 1970s.

It will be tough to name a band even in 20 years that has done for Rock'nRoll what the Stones have done.....

It really doesn't matter what the state of R'n'R is now IT'S ALL BEEN DONE BEFORE. Bands now are trying to carve a tich some how.

OOOoooo... a real scorcher...

"Regional implications of the changing nuclear equation on the Korean Peninsula [microfiche] : hearing before the Committee on Foreign Relations, United States Senate, One Hundred Eighth Congress, first session, March 12, 2003"

In the last 20 or in their 20 years of playing?

LMAO

So how does Jagger's c**k taste?

The Stones never did anything original either. Difference was you guys were all so high you couldn't tell that they sucked. Those huge damn lips sure were trippy, though.

Rush? :shrug:

Hey puss... What's shakin?


Funny Milkman never tells us when his puss-ass goes to bed...

Am I supposed to automatically know what that means?

Yep.

Those guys were about as original as the Monkeys.

Real Simple.... Simpleton (i.e. Simplex)

Poney up a band that has done more for R 'n R in 40 years.
Still better yet I'll give you 40 years to do it.

Stones put on an awesome show. ever been to one.....

Continue to live in the Sh1tty current R'n'R presence. The bands blow.

You are a pussy, but you don't have a pussy, so you don't need to know when I'm going to bed.

ROFL

That's even worse than the s**t *I* was saying.

Hey puss. I thought you had crashed. Silly me.

I was just trying to have some fun.

Bullseye.

Hard to read into that one, it's deep like T. S. Eliot n' stuff...

STFU STFU

LMAO

Keep yapping grandpa.

"This one time we had this band, they ruled. We had to walk uphill both ways in 6 inches of snow in July to see their show. My mom would put a baked potato in my coat to keep me warm, then it would double as my lunch when I got to the show. It was cool as hell."

It's obvious that no-one could ever convince a homer like you that there is a band better than the Rolling Poons, so I'm not going to bother. Instead I'm going to mock you mercilessly because I find it amusing.

That didn't cut it when I had a meeting with DFS and it's not going to cut it with you...

You watch the KU game MM?

If he ate the baked potato at the show, what kept him warm on the walk home?

A stomach full of Jagger's Little Swimmers.

E U!!!

So, let's examine "influential" rock bands vs. some schlubs who capitalized off a stoned audience and turned that into over-charging to aging hippies trying to recapture their lost glory...

In no particular order:

1. The Beatles. You may have heard of them.
2. Jimi Hendrix. Kind of a slacker, though.
3. The Who. Did a show or two, they were supposedly Ok.
4. The Ramones.
5. Nirvana. Did the Stones spawn an entire genre? I can't remember.
6. The Doors. Who was their lead singer again?
7. U2. I hate them, but they seem to be financially viable.
8. The Grateful Dead. 20 years ain't got s**t on them.
9. Metallica. Hell, they made a bunch of money and have been around 20 years.
10. The Eagles.

You're right, though. The Stones are the best band EVAH!!!!11!

Mick will appreciate you Enjoyed the Swimmers.

Perms for men were outlawed somewhere around the same time dispute duels were.

In western society anyway...

So are you arguing that some band WAS more influential or not in 20 years, or in the last 20 years.

****ing Dell's...

Let's not forget that tard Elvis. He never did anything original either.

pussy

The point being there are plenty of bands before the Drones, and plenty after, who did more for music. Some that also made a s**t-pot of money, some with even better staying power, etc.

A scathing comeback. I'm reeling from the blow.

:hmmm: There's also that one group, was it Purple Royce? Blue Clyde...

OH! Pink Floyd. You may have heard of them.

Simpleton real simple Get A Clue.

Let's talk to some folks that have one....YOU DONT HAVE ONE.

You got nothing in the top 10. Let alone 20.
Rock 'n Roll has been around long the most bands you claim are good.

History is and will continue to prove it. Get over it. accept it and move on.

I'm Sorry/Rest of the R'nR community is sorry...

Simple... the sh1tty a$$ band that have been appearing for the last
20 years got nothing on the bands before them.

Chuck Berry, James Brown, Bob Dylan, Buddy Holly, Ray Charles, Led Zepplin, Stevie Wonder, Fats Domino, The Velvet Underground, Bo Diddley, Black Sabbath, Queen, The Kinks, Prince, The Supremes, George Clinton & The P-Funk, R.E.M., Smokey Robinson, The Temptations, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, Bob Marley, Zappa, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jefferson Airplane, Alice Cooper, Skynyrd (uck), Alice in Chains...

Since you took the time to post this twice I suspect yer' sporting the Cracka'Fro...

Are you high?

ROFL

1. Keep using "Simpleton". That one is so fresh and witty that it really stings.

2. You've managed name ONE band. You also have proven your stupidity by ignoring the fact that over half the bands in that list are pre-Drones or from the same era, still harping on the "bands for the last 20 years SUCK" mantra.

No artists ever had the staying power of Elivs or the Floyd.

Nothing close...

I believe I said earlier you had to be to find the Stones entertaining.

Don't tell that to Stc

This is what I'm talking about. The only argument that can be made for "The Stones are the best band EVAH!!!" is if it's purely a monetary argument, however even then I think if you adjusted for inflation there are several bands that would have made as much if not more.

Add to that bands like The Greatful Dead who barely charged and allowed their live shows to be recorded and shared (bittorrent was built specifically for their shows) and I think the argument is thin at best.

There simply isn't a genre spawned by the Stones and they haven't bridged generational gaps like U2 and some others. I'm not that impressed.

So now you want to disparage minorities? Do you really want to isolate and enrage the chemically enhanced?

I see no alternative at this point outside of CP litigation and a poll or 3...

KISS (ugh), Elton John, Fleetwood Mac, CCR, Moody Blues, Radiohead.

Hell, freaking Aerosmith is as high on the list as the Stones IMO.

AC/DC, Boston, Cream...

Van-Freaking-Halen even spawned a genre.

They were a pop phenom that remained influencial for generations while flirting with greatness in specific songs and lyrics.

Have I forgotten Judas Priest? I hope not...

I'll give you....good bands in this list.

Chuck Berry (can't drive worth a F).
Dylan - great song writer.
Buddy Holly - died one hit wonder at this point
Ray Charles - Certainly a HOFer.
LZ - Great R'nR band Blues based like Stones.
Domino - another 1 hit wonder
VU - overall under impressed
Kinks - Great band (Stones level?)
Prince-Great guitar ... staying power?
Supremes - Good girl group. Motown hot.
George Clinton - WTF Disco phenom.
Temptations - Good motown sound. But the overall numbers?
REM - give me break....on the Stones level?
Smokey- good singer more Motown
FZ - Very out there progressive sound.
Peppers - ? In 20 years Who the F were they?
Airplane - Will cash in on 60s too. overall?
Alice - Very good. Way ahead of his time.
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Progressive SR. outside Allman Bros. (not mentioned).
Alice in Chains - You can't be serious? Give Me a Break. Not even close to the Stones.

Maybe a generational thing....but let RnR history decide. these guys are not in the same league.

Aerosmith is as pop-metal as metal could and will ever get. It's barely even metal.

Who, the Rolling Scones or U2?

Oh hell's no.

Now I have to whip out some Marty McFly-type action on your azz...

To me greatness isn't what YOU do, it's what you inspire OTHERS to do. Nobody was inspired by the Stones.

Also, you seem to have a very, VERY narrow definition of "rock".

Despite the obvious political hatred I have for U2 and their overbearing political stupidity I'd have to say it's a solid fit for both...

You and me both.

Oh, and Nine Inch Nails. I'm not a fan but he's done some truly unique stuff and brought a sub-genre out.

Hell, while I'm at it, Rob Zombie.

They've been around and selling for your magical 20 years, they have world-wide influence. They meet all of your criteria.

Another lie.
Stones have inspired more than one band, and been inspired by many.

I have a very broad definition of rock. I'm just unimpressed with what has been brought forth in the last 20 years.

Screaming vocals. Remixes of old songs (got a new one? worth a F)

Haven't seen any that will go down in the RnR greats. To be remembered in 20-50 years.

Nirvana seems to be the only thing that surfaces....

Any real serious playing continuous repeatable sound that inspires?

80s Bad hair band rock.

90s?

Alot of Rap in last X years. What's that done for music. Expose / promote Bitches and Ho's. Please that isn't original. Its No talent a$$ clowns.

God I wish.

Industrial-Metal died with grunge, and sometimes melded with techno, but it left no true heirs.

Reznor was an innovator - Manson/Zombie are the next hacks attempting to cash in on the Alice Cooper madness/style...

So your problem is that you don't acknowledge anything prior to the Stones and don't like anything newer? No offense, but your personal preferences do not make a band influential or great.

Hehe. I'm making a Pandora station out of all the bands I've listed and it rules. I'm leaving the Drooling Moans off, though.

Along those lines, Tool has done allright for themselves.

Man, can't believe I forgot them. DAMNIT CARL!!! :cuss:

Pussy

You know the drill.

Testes between the waffle iron...

Yeah, I only remembered, what, 100 bands?
