They shouldn't allow fans to be at the draft. Every pick gets booed or groaned at. -- nm - flavorize Apr 27, 16:33 2
- 99% of them are from New York, so there is a certain bias built in to the crowd -- nm - pixitude Apr 27, 16:38 1

  - They will be in the top 10 - amoxy Apr 27, 17:33
- I'm betting it's based on radio play cause that's the crap that's all over my station -- nm - Remlik Apr 27, 16:58
- that reminds me that I heard this morning about Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.. nm but: -- (link) - b. Apr 27, 16:44 3

- Imagine by John Lennon is considered rock? -- nm - Roger More Apr 27, 16:37 6
  - of course. A ballad. but its a Classic Rock song -- nm - Remlik Apr 27, 16:56
  - "Classic Rock" -- nm - the liioulu with sheets of metals Apr 27, 16:39 3
    - And if Billy Joel's on there.... -- nm - the liioulu with sheets of metals Apr 27, 16:42 2
      - And there's another stroke against it! -- nm - Roger More Apr 27, 16:47 1
        
        It is a bit odd. - the liioulu with sheets of metals Apr 27, 16:49
  - that preacher dude on WKRP certainly hated it... -- nm - Beaker Apr 27, 16:39
- My Ding A Ling! -- nm - peglegpete Apr 27, 16:35
- I would have picked a different Cheap Trick song and put it higher. -- nm - the liioulu with sheets of metals Apr 27, 16:34 7
  - I would've put Blind Faith on it -- nm - bink Apr 27, 16:36 2
    - hehe, I just posted in my IM below that it should have been higher. -- nm - the liioulu with sheets of metals Apr 27, 16:38 1
      - Yeah, I just went back to double check...duh *smacks head* - bink Apr 27, 16:40

  - There's a photo of Jimmy Page above the article, along with Angus, Keith and Steve Tyler. I'm guessing they all make the list -- nm - Roger More Apr 27, 16:38 3
    - Beatles, Def Leppard, Hendrix, Halen and Springsteen should round out the top 10. -- nm - Roger More Apr 27, 16:47 2
      - Ooops, Springsteen's already on the list so the 9th one is probably Queen. -- nm - Roger More Apr 27, 17:10 1
        
        #1 -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 27, 17:23
  - They still have 9 more to go. I am guessing Stairway to Heaven - amoxy Apr 27, 16:32 1
    - which is bad in and of itself when there are so many of their songs better... -- nm - Beaker Apr 27, 16:32
