If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
i gather the lot of you don't really pay much mind to artists outside the most exciting genre of "classic rock"?
 
-Morrissey
-Siouxsie Sioux
-Michael Stipe
-Bono

I don't know if I have a fifth. Thom Yorke or Craig Finn maybe.
 
Damn... I'm stumped right now... this is going to take me forever to work out.

I know that I'm putting Freddy Mercury and David Bowie on top... after that, though... that's where my trouble begins.

I'm glad to see someone mentioned Paul Stanley... as much as I hate Gene Simmons and can't stand KISS, I'm not sure anyone can say they weren't massively influential with one of the most powerful stage shows ever.
