Topic: Pink Floyd vs. Rush Posted: November 19 2008 at 17:55 |
Okay, I've seen "Rush vs. The Beatles," "Rush vs. "Led Zeppelin," and "King Crimson vs. Pink Floyd."
Very well. Let's try this on for size.

While I like the Hard Rocking stuff from Rush quite a lot, Pink Floyd gets my vote by miles.

Ouch! Tougher than the Rush vs. LZ or the Rush vs. Magma. I didn't participate in the Rush vs. Beatles one, because that was comparing apples and oranges. 
Not sure if I can vote on this one either. Both are bands I've loved for years and years. Lately I've been on a Floyd kick, but next week I might be on a Rush kick. I must refrain. But hopefully, unlike OP of the LZ poll, you've only allowed one vote per person.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

IŽll go with Rush since I love them (Peart  ), but think Pink Floyd will largely
win this poll as their earlier stuff is completely different from anything already done.
Well, at least, from that IŽve notice of.

I simply can't choose. They're both excellent; not my absolute favourites, but close.

As much as I love Rush I'm getting sick of these polls.
No vote.

Seeing as how Rush have some memorable bits of music and some energy, i think i'll go with them.
(i do like Floyd, and have many of their albums, but even the most die-hard fan has to admit that they go through the motions a bit!!)

| That was sort of my point.
I realize the irony in that I'm not helping the situation. No need to point that out.

I'll give it to Rush. I still listen to Rush, but I don't really listen to PF anymore to be honest.
But yeah, as Mike said, people need to stop re-doing polls that have been done over a million times.

Rush got my vote, proud Canadians. Also I think the Pink Floyd may just be a tad overrated.

I like Rush, but Floyd runs them and almost any band out of the water.
