    So Zeppelin won this 2017 Natty rather easily as well.

    So when I first tabulated the results from this shit pole back in 2017, Zeppelin dominated so not surprising that they took the 2018 Natty with ease. No surprises either with Stones and Metallica both getting into the Final 4. AC DC outperformed their 2017 stats significantly by making it to the Natty game and seemingly benefited the most from a weaker bracket (i.e., later 70's to mid 80's).

    1) Led Zeppelin (16 votes) – No surprises here

    2) Metallica (10 votes) – Too many of us are fags according to @Swaye because Metallica didn’t win.

    3A) Rolling Stones (9 votes) – Tough loss for me here as a “Stones better than Zep” guy, but I will respect the results of this election.

    3B) Pink Floyd (9 votes)

    5) The Who (8 votes) – Was really pleased by a competitive showing here by one of my all time favorites.

    6) The Beatles (7 votes) – I was worried they might not make the cut.

    7A) Tool (6 votes)

    7B) AC DC (6 votes)

    8) 5 Way Tie with 5 votes each: Bowie, Hendrix, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and (not the fucking) Eagles.

    Honorable mention (4 or more votes): Soundgarden, Neil Young, Radio Head, Black Sabbath, Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers

    Big takeaways - Tool and AiC should have been in the bracket

    AiC, yes. Miscalculation here. Maybe Smashing Pumpkins or some other 90's group like Foo Fighters. I think Tool is mor college football message bored bump rather than top 16 group of its era.

    I'm not a Tool fan but those fuckers are really talented. You're right on Pumpkins and Foo as well. Also Muse.

    We just need to do that whoel bracket over again, but we know the winner wasn't coming from it (if Metallica couldn't pull it off) so it's not like the general results were affected.
