Except well, there is no poll. mistake?

Wed Jul 19, 2006 7:57 pm

No. I was editing my post to make sure my browser didn't shut off while I was creating Versus and lost it all.

It's there now.

Wed Jul 19, 2006 9:09 pm

I didn't know you make polls after you posted. Hmm. Learn something new everyday.

Anyhow, Pink Floyd vs. Led Zeppelin is sorta hard. I'll have to see.

Wed Jul 19, 2006 9:14 pm

Has to be Led Zepplin.

Thu Jul 20, 2006 3:47 pm

Gotta go with Led Zepplin for this one.

Thu Jul 20, 2006 4:44 pm

Led Zeppelin.

Thu Jul 20, 2006 4:47 pm

Pink Floyd. The Wall album beats anything Led Zeppelin did.

Thu Jul 20, 2006 5:10 pm

Led Zepplin, I love "Stairway To Heaven".

Also, the link for their "facts" is still at the band Sugarland.

I felt as if something was off... :roll: I'll go update it.

Fri Jul 21, 2006 7:37 pm

Seeing as Led Zeppelin is my favorite band of all time, I will have to vote for them. <3

Sat Jul 22, 2006 3:51 pm

Basically what Paul said. I like "Stairway to Heaven", but that's really all I came to like from Led Zeppelin.

Heh, now the Led Zepplin link is screwed up.

Mon Jul 24, 2006 9:04 pm

I was thinking of voting for Pink Floyd just for the fact that my mom loves Led Zeppelin, but I had to stay true to myself. :P
