Hmmm, kinda hard to pin it down to just one group for each decade but here's my 2 cents:

60's- The Beatles (no others even come close)

70's- Led Zepplin/Pink Floyd (A Dead Heat)

80's- The Eagles

90's- U2
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

OK, put down the bong and slowly step away.

Can't risk it, in my job I have to sign for and be in charge of a large amount of class 2 and class 3 narcotics.  Get busted once with that stuff or any kind of alchohol related charge and I can kiss my career good bye.

I lived in Jax, Fl. when he came out. He was everywhere. You couldn't get away from it. It was torture, inhumane, and just plain aweful. Come to think of it, I should sue him.
