I know it's hard to pick just five but that forces some decisiveness. (I think it would be interesting to see what OTHER 4 bands devoted OTR fans enjoy.)
I'll get it started (and I'll be honest although I know you'll laugh!) 1. Styx 2. The Beatles 3. OTR 4. Chris Isaak 5. Led Zeppelin Oh, so mainstream, so uncool, I know. But the truth is the truth! : - ) |

1/permanent
Chroma Key 2-4/fairly steady Faith No More / Mr Bungle Radiohead Silverchair / Dissociatives 5/rotating and currently... Porcupine Tree 5 is too short of a list... the artists vying for Spot #5 are about 20 long... including Elliott Smith, Pink Floyd, Beatles, Tori Amos, Toad the West Sprocket, King's X, Extreme, Ani Difranco, et cetera... OTR's probably #7 or 8 (maybe)... ~fff - np: peter mulvey - kitchen radio -------------------- "If music is dying, musicians are killing it." - Mike Patton

My favs are ever-changing. I simply cannot make a final determination. The best I can do is at this moment my five would be:
OTR Kim Taylor Cowboy Junkies Sarah McLachlan Big Head Todd -------------------- T xo A mind once expanded can never return to its original dimensions.

OtR Led Zeppelin Bob Dylan Jack Johnson Snoop Dogg feat. Dr. Dre -------------------- |

In no particular order because I am not that organized in my music loving
Over the Rhine Tori Amos Sarah McLachlan Ani Difranco Rufus Wainwright Kim Taylor I tried to keep it to five, I almost made it. -------------------- Glee is when you run. And jump. And skip. And laugh. And clap. And dance on top of the dining room table.

QUOTE(Toga080 @ Jun 29 2005, 04:27 PM) Ride Stone Roses ....that's all I can think of right now  Man, if the Stone Roses had stuck together and made a couple more albums, they'd probably be on my list...both their albums are definitely among my favorites. I need to hear more Ride stuff, I had one album (Tarantula) but wasn't very impressed, but I've never heard their earlier stuff...and I did really enjoy the first Hurricane #1 album (although the second one, with a couple exceptions, was pretty bad) -------------------- |

5.) The Black Crowes
4.) Harry Connick, Jr. 3.) Indigo Girls 2.) The Roots 1.) Jump, Little Children Yeah, OtR doesn't make the top 5...which I guess is kinda weird. I just like the people on the forum. My fav band, JLC, has possibly the worst fan forum of all time...otherwise I'd be there more often. Don't get me wrong, OtR is definitely in the top ten, but I didn't discover them til' well after the above top five had been established. -------------------- |

This list is hard for me since so much of the music I listen to is up-and-coming artists. These are my top 6 more "established" artists, however. (I don't believe in multiples of 5.)
Sam Phillips Tess Wiley Radiohead Over the Rhine Sixpence None the Richer Sufjan Stevens Honorable Mentions: Aimee Mann, Glen Phillips/Toad the Wet Sprocket, Patty Griffin, David Eugene Edwards, Drive-By Truckers, Rilo Kiley, Rufus Wainwright, Wilco, Hem -------------------- |

U2
Coldplay Radiohead Tom Conlon Def Leppard Ok, that last one was a joke, but the other four are so far above the others that it might as well be them. |
