Let's laugh at Rolling Stone's "Top 500" lists

Though at least they got number 1 (Hendrix) correct.

FIXED....Some great non rock guitarists on there

Also, here is how lame Rolling Stone is....Nirvana's Nevermind is #17 ALL TIME on their list. When Nevermind originally came out, Rolling Stone gave it 3 out of 5 stars and fairly panned it.

Fuuuuck, RS will pan (i.e. give 3 or below stars) to pretty much anything they (READ AS: the 'person' reviewing) doesn't agree with, then they 'cover it up' by releasing a 'retrospective' about >10 years later stating that they were totally in the wrong on their initial assessment. It's kind of like the "Let's base music history off of what sold well" method proposed by the A.V. Club except RS isn't afraid to wait about 10 or 20 (glam rock anyone?) years for it to admit its mistakes.

God, _phil or mike_ or whoever makes all those "IM SO DRANUNNK" posts must be retarded because I'm on like 9 screwdrivers right now and Google Chrome is picking up no errors. (Well, except for the forum names and DRAUNNK and apparently glam? Is glam not a real word? Cmon Bowie, get some clout.)
