    Might have been a more interesting thread if we were asked to list our top two 3 or 5, since a lot of people (including myself) will put down Pearl Jam as #1. I mean, this is a Pearl Jam board, after all - and one that you have to pay to join, at that. You are not gonna get many casual fans of Pearl Jam here... ;)

    For the sake of discussion, I'll put down my top 6:
    1. Pearl Jam
    2. Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band
    3. Alice In Chains
    4. Avenged Sevenfold
    5. Bon Jovi
    6. The Tragically Hip

    I was going to say the same thing...

    However, my favourites are The Rolling Stones and, since seeing them live for the first time, Pearl Jam (casual fan before, hardcore now).

    i'd say PJ is a given but for the last few years there are 2 bands that i've been obsessed with are Black Mountain and Sleepy Sun. I hope they stay together for a long time because they make amazing music.

    wait edit.

    Pink Floyd as far as all time goes.

    Pearl Jam obviously...

    Next:

    Pink Floyd
    Led Zeppelin
    The Who
    Rage Against the Machine
    Sublime

    If the members of Floyd were all still alive and they toured regularly, they would probably be my number 1.

    I honestly can't answer this question. There are so many bands I love. It used to be Pearl Jam, by a huge margin. But, in recent years... I have begun to give them less attention. I still love them dearly, but I'm in no way close to being as "obsessed" with Pearl Jam as I was even 2 years ago. I found myself limiting my taste and listening to way too much PJ and not enough of anything else... so I forced myself to branch out. I of course still put on some PJ every now and then...

    At this time though, it comes down to The Replacements & Ryan Adams (and everything he has done)

    I still love you Pearl Jam.
