Shouldn't it be "bands correct"?

I'm guessing you're a classic rock fan. All the classic rock bands I could think of were there (with the notable exception of Bad Company).

Bruce is kind of an omission, given that Nick Cave and Huey Lewis and Tom Petty are all on here with backing bands. Also, "Derek and the Dominos," not "Dominoes." Sly and the Family Stone is also a big omission. I'd take out Relient K and Atreyu and add in Bruce and Sly. Otherwise, this is a pretty comprehensive list of mainstream rock acts since the 60s. Generally an excellent quiz, given that it's just a random list of artists you could think of.

Nice quiz! I was surprised there wasn't Bon Jovi on there, though...

Excellent, excellent quiz... the lack of Nickelback only makes it better!

I think you should include Bon Jovi, Toto, FalcoFrankie Goes To Hollywood, Lynyrd Skynryd, Scorpions, The Verve. Yet, it remains a good quizz even if for me ther're some "bands" you put that I don't believe they did "rock".

Great White, Bon Jovi, Cinderella, Godsmack, Megadeath, L.A. Guns, Warrant, Saving Abel, Disturbed, Nickelback, BTO...hello? This quiz blows. How do you make a quiz asking for "random" entries?

For 200 bands, this quiz surprisingly lacks diversity in sub-genres.

Ech. If you're going to do stuff like this, why not just put your iPod on shuffle and make us guess the first hundred songs? Honestly.

Maybe they should be in alphabetical order.

I hate to defend Movie Dynamic, but this is actually a great quiz. The complaints from people who disagree with "random" answers are welcome to not take this online quiz that somebody made for them and posted for free. The randomness is what makes the results so interesting. The percentage of us that can free recall a band turns out to be an accurate measure of a rock band's impact on music history (I'd say we got the first four right with Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin, Nirvana in that order) and the data collected here is very hard to get otherwise because small samples tend to have selection bias, which is minimized here. In any list like this there are going to be bands left out that others feel deserved inclusion. So, without intending to be critical of this list, my list of omissions is: Bruce and the E Street Band (most glaring omission) Bon Jovi Sublime 311 Black Crowes REO Speedwagon Hall and Oates
