This is a dumb poll.
Nirvana and the Bee Gees were both trios, while the Stooges were a quartet! (Unless you're talking about Curly, Larry and Moe, that is). That's hardly grounds for a fair comparison.
Anyway, assuming we're talking about ability to sing 3 part harmony in falsetto voices while displaying copious quantities of chest hair, it has to be Barry, Robin and Maurice - Bee Gees!

The Bee Gees were making the most uncompromising music. Totally sentimental, totally disco in the '70's, totally over the top, so they get my vote.

What kind of poll is this?!? Two bands from the completely opposite
genres? Anyways, I can't say...they both had their moments.I haven't
listen to either of them enough. I've only heard Nevermind by Nirvana
and selections from Saturday Night Fever and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely
Hearts Club Band(which, by the way, doesn't even stand up by the
original one done by the Beatles!) by the Bee Gees.However, my vote
would probably go to Bee Gees because they aren't as hardcore as
Nirvana.

I went for Nirvana but it was a close call with the Stooges!

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

I haven't heard the Stooges much, so I vote for Nirvana.

I don't like disco, I only liked Nirvana when I was a kid, and I'd like to see the Stooges live because Iggy is entertaining live (I tried to see Iggy live but the Baptists here made it a 21+ show).
