Classic Rock Bottom

SURVEY (CLASSIC INFO NEEDED)

I need some input from you Bottom Feeders!  Please copy and paste as needed.  Please list five answers for the following questions.  Do not repeat any bands within a particular question, but you can repeat a band for each different question.  Hopefully that makes sense.   And these must be classics (anything before 1989 by my book).  I need as many folks as possible to respond to this.  If you can't think of 5 answers for a particular category, at least list what you can think of.  That's all of the rules, and thanks for the help.  I'll list my answers below:

I'll have something done before this weekend (depending on snow). What are you looking for on Classic Rocker?  Just a classic song that rocks, like "Magic" by Olivia Newton-John?

I'm sure, if I understand this correctly. Can't I choose a song or whatever, that someone else allready has chosen??

You can if you want.  But stay with me here, there is a point to all of this eventually, which I will reveal when I've gotten enough replies.

I think I know where you're going, that's why I tried to stay away from other folks' picks.....
