These selections are in my mind worthy bands.  Feel free to type in your answer as well.  There is no GNR selection because the first 6 people to vote answered GNR.  Obviously on a GNR board, the vote may be biased.  So vote for the SECOND greatest post 1980 band...lol:)

well, i can't decide right now, but for sure none of the above!

btw, ACDC isn't post 1980, they started 1975 & a lot of their best albums are pre-1980!

like i stated in the other poll, Pink Floyd...Aerosmith...AC/DC...and even the Stones could swing either way.  all of the bands put out records before and after, so i tried to put them in a class where they've done the majority of their work or have been most influential on society as a whole.  AC/DC being the toughest to classify album/singer wise...but the majority of their touring took place post 1980, so i guess that's my reasoning.
