Frontman/Woman Bracket (sans Freddie Mercury): Play-in Games

OK folks, I ma putting together the bracket. I decided this is for the Best Frontman/Woman Who Isn’t Freddie Mercury, since he basically ran away with the straight up voting. I have ranked these basically based on how many votes they got. This thread is for the play-in games for seed 15 and 16. This way I have included everyone who got a vote (except other). This is just for fun, so please don’t take it too personally. :slight_smile:

The seeding:

  1. Mick Jagger
  2. David Lee Roth
  3. Robert Plant
  4. Roger Daltry
  5. Peter Gabriel
  6. David Byrne
  7. Jim Morrison
  8. Axl Rose
  9. Bruce Dickenson
  10. Eddie Vedder
  11. Bono
  12. Debbie Harry
  13. Joey Ramone
  14. Anne Wilson
  15. Kurt Cobain /Trent Reznor
  16. Joe Strummer / Johnny Rotten

So for this round you need to place votes for
Kurt Cobain vs. Trent Reznor
Joe Strummer vs. Johnny Rotten

  1. Kurt Kobain

  2. Joe Strummer

Cobain and Strummer

Ditto

Contain & Strummer

Cobain and Rotten.

Reznor and Rotten

Reasoning for first choice: Reznor much more charismatic than Cobain IMO. e.g. compare the Nirvana vs Pearl Jam MTV Unplugged sessions. See also Reznor’s work with other groups like Pigface.

Reasoning for second choice: PIL. That’s all, just PIL.

Rotten and Cobain

There’s nothing good about Johnny Rotten.

Cobain / Strummer.

Cobain / Strummer

I liked Cobain better than Reznor, but Reznor was a better front man.

Reznor / Strummer

Reznor
Strummer
