On the website Last.fm, basically every week Radiohead is the top-most-listened-to artist followed by some assortment of the following: Nirvana, Green Day, The Beatles, Death Cab for Cutie, etc.
GN'R is in the Top 50 usually, and the only thing that keeps them out of the top 10 is a few thousand plays.
This is not to be taken too seriously, but I think just for fun, we should all try to listen to GN'R and try to bump them up the list a bit. Just to see what kind of effect a GN'R message board can have! All you have to do is download one of their plugins - e.g. if you listen to iTunes, they have an iTunes iscrobbler. You sign up for an account, download the plugin, play a GN'R track, and it registers it in the database.
I dunno, I just thought it might be interesting to see the difference we could make. I think GN'R are in the top 50 right now, but they are always in the top 100.
If you think this is stupid, pointless, etc., you don't have to participate. But please don't ruin this thread by posting inane, "This is dumb" posts. I already know a lot of people will think it's dumb.
