My top ten: 1. Motley Crue 2. Poison 3. Quiet Riot 4. Scorpions 5. Warrant 6. Cinderella 7. Skid Row 8. Killer Dwarves 9. Whitesnake 10. Guns and Roses And some artists that aren't quite as good as those but still get listened to occassionally (in no particular order after Shpongle and Tool) Shpongle Tool Hallucinogen Growling Mad Scientists Infected Mushroom Dj Food Kid Koala Skinny Puppy Rage Against the Machine Beck Gong Tori Amos Bob Marley Burning Spear Aphex Twin u-Ziq Monolake and it goes on... Narrowing to ten seems near impossible... Peace out. Mick "The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate." - Noam Chomsky
