Out of those 4 my preference would probably be Rush followed by Aerosmith...

Not generally, though once or twice I've been inspired to stand naked on the parapet of various campus buildings while listening to The Stones and I suppose you could say that most everything was 'out' at those times.
Why? Is is something I might have borrowed from Pat Boone devotees?

I like the list. obviously I completely disagree with teh Stones placement. (I mean seriously, they ranked them behind the Beatles in "Live performance"? Did the beatles ever play live?) And the BeeGees ahead of the Stones?
You know what, **** that. I take it back, **** that list and **** the ****ers associated with that ****ing list. And **** you if you think that ****ing list is even ****ing close to being ****ing right.

Go rent a pink 1962 Cadillac convertable, plug in 'London Calling' and drive from Tulsa to Norman for game day. I'd suggest black coffee 1/2 and 1/2 with Remy Martin (but won't for that would be illegal) to maintain the mood. Perhaps follow up with Iggy and the Stooges for a light, flippant twist at the end.

Just the fact that "The Ramones" don't even get a mention in that list invalidates it.
They weren't my favorite band by no means but they had such an effect on Rock n Roll and the Punk Movement that to have some of those bands that are/were grunge on there and not have the Ramones....It's insulting to history IMO.
