I suppose Government Issue is arguable, but its hard to argue that Fugazi is more important than Bad Brains and Minor Threat.

Ian MacKaye founded Minor Threat before founding Fugazi. Minor Threat also started Dischord Records which chronicled DC Punk. In addition, Minor Threat pretty much started the "straight edge" punk movement.

Minor Threat's first gig was opening for Bad Brains, who, as you know, influenced a ton of bands.

No doubt, Fugazi is a great band, but, to me, ranking them over Minor Threat (or even Bad Brains) is akin to ranking Foo Fighters over Nirvana.

shrug

I don't know much about either of those bands so I probably don't know what I'm talking about. I'll concede. biggrin

Done. I would like to see The Replacements on the ballot, but I know they don't stand a chance against Prince or Dylan (as it should be, I suppose).

Does that mean she's still in?

GangstaFam	Prince from Minnesota. Not only do I like him much more, but he seems more intrinsically linked to that state.

Liberace was born in wisconsin, that should be a lock for that state unless anyone can come up with a notable musician from that state.
