Guest the holy grail Posted June 2, 2003 Report Posted June 2, 2003 As everyone is popping up with these tournaments i thought why not have a Greatest Frontman or woman tournament i like to get peoples minds working so next week i can compile all the names that are worthy and start the competition. Mick Jagger - The Rolling Stones Oh yeah The band name would help as well.
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted June 2, 2003 Report Posted June 2, 2003 Freddie Mercury - Queen I really don't think there's enough decent frontmen for a tournament.
Guest the holy grail Posted June 2, 2003 Report Posted June 2, 2003 i'll add one more just to annoy a few people Liam Gallagher - Oasis
Mecha Mummy Posted June 2, 2003 Report Posted June 2, 2003 Well, if we've got Vedder, we might as well add... Kurt Cobain - Nirvana
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted June 2, 2003 Report Posted June 2, 2003 Why did holy grail get banned? Oh well, puts a stop to this tournament i guess. Anyone wanna take over?
Guest Memphis Posted June 4, 2003 Report Posted June 4, 2003 Ian Gillan - Deep Purple. And why DID grail get the ban? It was the Liam Gallagher comment, wasn't it? M
Guest JAxlMorrison Posted June 4, 2003 Report Posted June 4, 2003 Well I came up with one off the top of my head that isn't exactly getting rave reviews, but oh well. If we came up with 32 decent names I think we could have a good tourney.

Bono for U2 Joey Ramone for the Ramones AWK for his band, I guess... Mike Patton for Faith No More, Tomahawk, and Mr. Bungle Ozzy for Black Sabbath... ...aaaaand Sting for the Police
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted June 4, 2003 Report Posted June 4, 2003 What's the guy in Rage's name again? Fuck, I know it... but it's slipping my mind at the moment.
