Best Group From 1990-Now (Nomination Thread)

[agon666]

I was going to start a poll for this, but there were too many choices to list, and people would be wondering why I didn't list so and so. Then I thought that maybe a tournament on the board would work.

Here's my idea: a single-elimination tounament comprised of 64, 96, or 128 bands, depending on interest. Each person gets to nominate two bands for the tounament to start (nominations may be opened up afterword if there are notable bands that people want to nominate but used their two nominations.) Then, brackets will be randomized, and the board here will get to vote on which ones they want to go on through each round.

The rules for bands nominated:
A) They must have at least two albums released. (Though a band such as Audioslave will qualify because when this thing gets rolling, their album will be out there.)

B)They had to be active and productive between 1990 and now. (A'la no AC/DC... their best days were obviously 80's). That's a judgement call I'm leaving to you.

C)Groups may be nominated... solo acts cannot. (OutKast, Backstreet Boys are eligible)

Well this work? I don't know, but I promise to try my best to get it off the ground and going. I'll start the nominations:

1. Red Hot Chili Peppers[/b] - Their funk rock, wacky sound has made many fans. Plus, they did the thing every good band does: after making a bad album, they came back better than ever.

2. Matchbox Twenty[/b] - A absoulte staple of late 90's radio. I think there's a law that every HAC station in the nation must have at least two MB20 song in medium rotation at all times.

Bands Nominated[/u]
Matchbox Twenty
Red Hot Chili Peppers

P.S. Please try to keep an updated list of bands nominated like the one I have above, so people don't have to crawl all over the topic to see if a band's been nominated.
Hope this does well!

When is the nomination period going to close? I have about a dozen bands I'd like to see in this that I haven't nominated yet, but I want to wait for others to nominate them first. ;)

[jimmy74747]

The only bands I can think of that haven't been nominated yet are:

Creed
Rascal Flatts

[Minor Scratch]

Goo Goo Dolls and Metallica

we might as well put all the boy bands and Pop shit too guys, they were successful and there's no point leaving them out. If we need at a least 64 group tournament, we need all the cheese with it.

[tico]

I'll add Aerosmith and Fuel.
