MrHew Posted March 15, 2021 Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 1. Bowie 2. Radiohead, REM, Cure 5. Stones 6. Stevie 7. Blur Those top 5 are my top five if all time. I wasn't at either Stevie or Blur so they're placements are based on what I've seen. Also wasn't there for the most recent Radiohead headline set but I loved it from my sofa.

Apologies, but I need to justify to myself why it’s ok to remove points from those that remain, given that I like them all. Otherwise I feel bad about things.

So I'm just a chicken using my voice to say that for the sake of this forum's reputation let's get rid of that bland, bisexual, baldy, boring, bastard Stipe before it's too late. Before this gets lost in posts, I can't let your use of 'bisexual' as a pejorative term go by without calling you on it. Poor form, there. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair, I'd already called them bland boring bastards collectively so wanted to add a couple more "b"s for Stipe himself but in reality there's nothing wrong with being bisexual or bald.
