I've got a top 10ish that's always weaving and bobbing.

I would like to add Dave Matthews Band to my top 3:

Tool
Radiohead
DMB

That's a pretty solid list IMO

Based solely on which bands have the most *s in my iTunes collection:
Nirvana (243 stars)
AC/DC (240 stars)
Consolidated (220 stars)

Next closest was R.E.M @ 198 total stars, Zepplin @ 194 stars and big drop off to RATM @ 161 stars (who were limited by having very few albums).

No band comes close to Alanis Morissette, Sarah McLachlan, Leonard Cohen or several other solo artists all in the 280 range.

BTW - I got to thinking why so many solo artists have more stars in iTunes than bands and I think I realized why. If I look at some of these bands I have here, most of them broke up at some point. If I add my Eagles stuff to my Don Henley stuff and Glenn Frey stuff they would be in that upper echelon. If I add my Genesis to Phil Collins and Peter Gabriel.... even the Beatles could have had more hits if they hadn't split up. Bands that stay together for 30+ years like AC/DC or Rolling Stones are extremely rare.

Yes it is, and a nice variety of style too. I love all 3 of them as well.
