The post I created earlier and the other posts by MikeV inspired me to ask who your favorite rock legend(s) are.
For me, the godfathers of Punk, The Who!
Dunno if Im old enough to remember some of your guy’s Rock Legends…but I do like Bon Jovi. does that count?

Nah. I went to the concert when it came to Omaha, NE. Awesome show, by the way! [Y]
im in Fl… Bubba Amry…I listen every work morning…No Bon Jovi though…Mine was Led Zeppelin…Saw Plant 3 times, The Firm, Jmmy Page on solo tour…84-87 i was a big concert goer.
So many to choose, so I will just scratch the surface:
Classic: Led Zep, Yes, Allman Bros.
Metal: Metallica, Megadeth, Glen Danzig and one of the most proffesional and upstanding dudes in the music industry Bruce Dickinson (both with Iron Maiden and him solo)
Speed Metal: Slayer
Inudstrial: KMFDM, Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails), Front Line Assembly
Brian

compared to the original
Too many to list…The Doors, The Who, The Stones, The Kinks, the Yardbirds, Zepplin, Deep Purple, and of course the founding fathers, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis, and many others…
Some of the ones that didn’t make it as big as they should: Spencer Davis Group, Small Faces, Badfinger.
The Beatles and the 'Stones for me, in that order.
'nuf said.
Well, you all got the answer wrong… Come on. Guess I’m the only +50 here.
Ah, Hendrix is certainly a legend. Wish he had lived a bit longer. [:(]
That’s my favorite rocker…
I would have to put up a rather long list, instead I’ll just offer up Carlos Santana. I was never a big Santana fan but I saw him in concert at Shoreline around 1993 (with Steve Miller and John Lee Hooker) and that changed my opinion, he does a great live show. John Lee Hooker was pretty amazing too, he was this very old looking man who needed assistance getting on stage, and just sat in a chair, but he could still play and sing. He must have really been something to see in his prime.
Steve Miller was great too, but he was the one I was actually going to see, so I expected that.
Well, of course a tip of the cap to The Who, The Stones, Cream (Clapton), Hendrix, Zep, etc. But my faves are Van Halen, Iron Maiden, Rush, and I must add KISS. Became a fan after working with a local tribute band in the late '90s. Seen the original live 3 times, all in makeup. The show really is larger than life…
Oh, and after spending 3 1/2 months on Dragon’s M2 halftrack, it’s finally done. Pics to come shortly…

Gone but not forgotten:
Jimmy Hendrix, Randy Roads, Stevie Ray Vaughn.
One can only guess how much further these three would have elevated music and guitar playing if they had lived longer. Your music lives forever! RIP immortal legends of rock \m/[8][hdphns][Y][H][hdphns][:D[
Having seen most rock and metal concerts of the late 80’s and early 90’s I have a favorite three bands that I will go to great lengths and expense to see when they tour:
AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Van Halen \m/
On the heavier side Metallica’s first four Lp’s are each classic ground breaking metal which each and every song kicks ass!
‘Kill em’ all’
‘Ride the Lightning’
‘Master’s of Puppets’
‘Justice for all’
Rawk! \m/
Over all favorite:[] Steve Ray Vaughn. []Check out 'Live at Montreux’ him playing ‘Texas Flood’[cwby]
