[Fearless Freep]

Most of the bands you mentioned, Freep, are famous for their drummers. Are you a drummer or is it just coincidence?

Several are also famous for their bassists :)  I'm a bassist

there is a few more albums tacked on at the bottom but you get the gist of things, that I like punk, crap-punk, pop-punk, emo/indie rock, and SKA.

[Deena]

I know neither are bands but Tori Amos and Ani Difranco are my favorites.  I felt I had to add a female perspective here.  Also bands I truly dig are Sublime, Phish, Smashing Pumpkins, and my local favorite, Blue Moon Revue (http://www.bluemoonrevue.com) Check them out!

Also, I'm not sure I'd put them in my "all-time" list quite yet, simply because I only got into them relatively recently, but The Cramps and Jonathan Richman & the Modern Lovers are currently in heavy rotation in my car CD player.

Pearl Jam, Metallica, Ozzy, Black Sabbath, Led Zepplin, Iron Maiden, Queen, the list goes on.

Oh yeah, Fozzy

[StatCat]

Probably a-ha- I have amased a pretty large collection of every album, all of the rarer tracks + remixes, solo efforts from the band members, and lots of different live cds (15 different live ones I think) all of which are bootlegs of course. I'm also into punk and 60s music. So it's all a strange mix.

That doesn't make you a dork!  TMBG isn't my favorite band but they write good stuff with smart lyrics that put most popular music to shame.

Ever hear the Pogues?  Irish folk meets punk rock.  They're my favorite.  Also great lyrics, but you have to read them off the CD cover because you're not gonna make out anything from perpetually drunk and slurring lead singer Shane MacGowan.
