We're on this forum for two reasons. One is because we're Rickenbacker fans, and we love the sight of them, and the second is because we're music fans. All music fans have favorite bands/artists. Who are your top 10 favorite bands/artists? You do not have to list reasons, but I'm curious to know who you guys enjoy so if there's an artist or band I do not know of, I can discover new music every day.
My top 10 favorite bands/artists:
1. Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers
2. The Rolling Stones
3. The Beatles
4. The Byrds
5. The Who
6. The Bangles
7. Bob Dylan
8. The Eagles
9. Eric Clapton
10. Neil Young

Hmm, I have a lot of bands for my list, but I'll try to narrow it to 10.
01. Rush
02. Pink Floyd
03. The Beatles
04. Queensrÿche
No real order after this, cuz they change slots depending on my mood.
05. Mercyful Fate
06. King Diamond
07. Judas Priest
08. Iron Maiden
09. KISS
10. KT Tunstall

1. The Beatles
2-10 in no particular order:
Fleetwood Mac (with Buckingham/Nicks)
Sarah Brightman
Sarah McLachlan
Rolling Stones
Dido
Eagles
Brian Setzer
Four Tops
CTA (the original band with Kath and Cetera)
Very hard to answer honestly, except for #1. My tastes tend to run all over the place, linger for varying periods of time, and then off in another direction.
