Adam & The Ants

Preferred the band rather than "Adam Ant" which refers to his solo years.

Adam Ant's okay, but XTC owns 'em for sure.

No more Person X vs Person Y questions. New rule.

Something a little more open ended, please.

why moderator sam?

Is this format somehow more mindless than "Who's your favorite stooge?"

*sigh*

I'd say the answer is "yes it is."

The different stooges had something in common.

XTC vs Adam Ant is more like asking "Spaghetti for dinner or green paint?"

I think that good questions should have a theme worth discussing. Throwing a couple items together does not make for an interesting discussion.

Comparing the various incarnations of the Yardbirds = good topic. The Yardbirds or 50 Cent = bad topic.

A simple comparasion can lead to a nice discussion

All topics are not worth discussion to me (example: How many licks to the center of a tootsie pop http://grupthink.com/poll/930), I avoid those and save my time for others

I have to side with my man Skritch here. Not that anyone asked me. Only because there is definitely a theme at work here.

Everyone who voted for "They both suck" should be imprisoned in a lightless room and subjected to 20 days of hip-hop and Chinese water torture.

That seems a harsh criticism for having a differing opinion on something that is wholy a matter of taste.
