This has probably been done a million times but I'm curious.

Would also like to know your reasons why.

Everyone says I'm both in the wrong era. Sounds so clique but I love Bowie and Dylan hense my username

I'm a Queen megafan, even have all 4 members inked on my forearm :o

I was too young (born too late :( ) to catch them first time around but absolutely love their music because no 2 were ever the same and their style flows with time even now.

In more modern times I quite like Greenday, George Ezra, Ed Sheeran but I love pretty much anything 80's!

Manic Street Preachers, saw them in 1992 aged just 16 and I've been in love ever since. Seen them lots of hundreds (possibly into the thousands) of times.
Still see 6-10 dates every tour, DH and DD are very tolerant of my obsession.
I love them because their songs are about meaningful things, DD says that Manics songs are like mini History lessons, I like that.

Changingoftheguard · 02/10/2017 21:22

Just heard the news about tom petty. Absolutely guttered, such a shame.

At least he's now with Roy and George
