    This is impossible for me to answer as there are so many in the running. Would be something along the lines of Radiohead, Ben Harper, Neil Young, QOTSA, MMJ, White Stripes, Soundgarden, Wilco, ABB, the Who, Led Zep, Beatles, Dylan, Stones, on and on and on...... I guess if I had to pick a # 2 it would probably be Neil Young, but it could change depnding on the day or mood. :fp:

    It's cool to like a band that isn't too popular. I've met them twice and they signed autographs. Pretty cool.

    1. Pearl Jam (always has been, always and forever)

    2. The National- hearing them for the first time was a life changing event. The Boxer is the No Code of The National for me.

    Modest Mouse is high up there for me too.

    Picking a second favorite is impossible. There is a number one, and then at least 10 second faves!

    Such a simple sounding question but it really can be difficult. There are so many life changing musical influences in my life.

    I think I love about 90% of all the bands mentioned so far. It's amazing to see what great, and diverse taste we all have outside of PJ.

    Awesome!

    Changes all the time.

    Now, Radiohead. Recently, QoTSA was there. Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, Metallica…
    Nirvana, time to time.
    Some soft stuff as well: Coldplay and U2.

    The only cool stuff I have is Megadeth and it's from decades ago.
