Stevie Nicks (I know she's not a band, but I love her)

I'm a HUGE Stevie Nicks fan! So much so that I named my largest city Nicksia. LOL

Some of my favorite bands besides Stevie (who will always be number one in my book):

Fleetwood Mac (since they were around before Stevie was in it)
The Eagles
Aerosmith
Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young
Heart
U2
Rolling Stones
Journey
whichever band Rudy Sarzo is in. It's a family thing.

I didn't include Lynyrd Skynyrd since the only album of theirs I'm really familiar with is their most recent studio album (Vicious Cycle), but I love quite a few of their classics and "The Way" off Vicious Cycle is a killer song.

No, darling, not all the bands were mentioned. My favorite just happens to be Seventh, which I haven't found listed here yet. And there are differences in car tires too. Some are better for rain and others for the desert. Some batteries last longer. If you aren't intrested in having favorites why did you come to a thread for favorites? I don't mean to be rude, or uninviting, but your remark just does not make much sense to me.
