One band has to go
Beatles. They sound like a garage band

I love Rush. They are on my mount Rushmore with The Beatles and Led Zepplin.

Easy call. Rush. Can't stand Geddy Lee's screeching.

I looked Rush up, seems as though they didn't become mainstream until the mid 70s which was about the end of me listening to "current" music. They were probably part of the reason.

Rush. Can't stand the lead singer's voice. The other bands are greats.

Not a tough one for me.
I'd keep 1 & 3. The rest can go.

For me it's the Beatles. Never have understood the appeal. Bye.

I just had to run it by everyone here. I did replace one band from the original question. So which band gets tossed?
1: The Beatles
2: Rush
3: Led Zeppelin
3: Pink Floyd


And who was on the original list?

Easy for me. I would keep Rush and ditch the Beetles first followed by Pink Floyd then Led Zeppelin.
