And first place goes to -----------------------------

AC-DC.

After the top 20 they also list the next 30 in order. No room for Mental as Anything or The Choirboys apparently. Confused

C'mon, all the scots who left that godforsaken place and came here deserve better than that. Barnesy and Eddie amongst them. Wink

Eurogliders & Choir Boys should have made the list if it was an "Australian" list.

No Bachelor Girl or Rat Cat???

No room for Roxus either...

Fantastic to see Birdman get in.
Only a handful of Melbourne people ever got to see then but eff their gigs were a 2 hour adrenaline fueled rush so nu 50's about right.

Air Supply? Shocked
(Oxygen thieves more like it)!

Give me Tex Perkins (or Dave Warner) anydae!

The Cruel Sea This is not the way home...
