    Does Tesla or Skid Row get the nod?

    People think of them as a pop MTV band but Huey Lewis and the News kicked ass live...I did sound for them at a gig they did and they blew me away...great, tight rock band. Eddie Money as well...great rock bands from the Bay area

    I really wish I could have seen them live; I loved their music so much as a kid.

    Canada. But they would top the list in my book. No American band has put out something like 2112.

    You seem more of a Men At Work fan than INXS.
