there are only 4 faces on mt rushmore so why 5 bands? why not 4 artists?

I'm with you... plus, I couldn't think of a 'fifth' band!

Elvis Presley
Chuck Berry
Bob Dylan
John Lennon

Chuck Berry
Elvis
Beatles
Stones
Dylan
Hendrix

(had to go with 6)

Top BANDS I thought was the topic...

Individual artists is a whole other mountain.

The first two never change. Other than that at this very moment:

Beatles
Stones
Doors
Pink Floyd
Led Zepplin

Honorable mention:

Cream
Grateful Dead
Jimi Hendrix expirence/Band of Gypsy's
The Who
Santana

Dat mountain has too much of a limited "iconic lifetime exhibition" – the Pantheon is much wider so I may suggest to drop the Mt. Rushmore idea and adopt the alternative (and by far better when judging the linkage between its location & the subjects) ELGIN MARBLES aka "Parthenon pediments":

WESTern frieze:
The Who (my favorites)
Pink Floyd
The Rolling Stones
The Beatles (think they should get their own shrine, the "Beatleum" perhaps with the 4 fabs sculpts serving as the 4 pillars holding the roof, but we said one shrine total).
Led Zeppelin
Yes (with replaceable heads ha-ha)
Deep Purple

Eastern frieze:
The Doors
Jefferson airplane
The Jimi Hendrix experience (with 2/3 of the sculpts facing the other pediment)
Guns N Roses (sorry but I like'em)

The inside of the shrine should have Les Paul's statue.

1. The Stones
2. The Beatles
3. The Doors
4. Jimi Hendrix
5. The Band

Doesn't Mt. Rushmore include 4 presidents?

How'd we get to 5?

Lincoln was schizo.

All that vampire hunting.

If there was a silver mountain, who would be the man on it?

Thats Gold!

only 4 heads on Mt Rushmore.

Rush should be on Mt Rushmore, after all it was named after them.

Actually the answer we were looking for was Ritchie Blackmore

The Rolling Stones
AC/DC
Led Zeppelin
Pearl Jam
Metallica

The Rolling Stones
The Beatles
The Who
Led Zeppelin
Jimi Hendrix

Others seem to agree. I'm surprised that the Doors got so many votes. I love the Doors, and I might put them at #6.

Mt Rushmore is the USA so I'd say Chuch Berry, Elvis, Hendrix, Dylan
If enough room for a fifth : Robert Johnson

[doctorstonesblog.blogspot.com]

too hard only 5, make it 13:

Stones till 82
led Z.
Pink F.
Joy Division
Black Crowes
Hendrix
Lucinda Williams
Dylan
Springsteen
AC/DC
Motorhead
Clapton (live)
Queen

There would be 5....



....though, yes, it's a Rainbow song, but the band was formed by a DP member and the singer (Dio) sounds like (or is trying to sound like) Ian Gillan--so it's a virtual DP song in my (song)book and would have been a classic mid-70s DP song had Blackmore chosen not to leave.

This is a winning answer too.

I live in America but without any doubt,the best bands ever are from England!
With that said the 5 bands are:
1 Rolling Stones
2 The Beatles
3 The Who
4 Led Zeppelin
5 The Kinks

there is never a time i thought dio sounded or tried to sound like ian gillan. dio's voice was pretty much intact on his first widely available single released in the early 60's. you think dio knew who gillan was more than 5 years before gillan joined deep purple?

1: THE ROLLING STONES

2: THE BEATLES

3: THE WHO

4: LED ZEPPELIN

5: BOB DYLAN

I agree except I would replace number 5 with The Doors if we are listing the bands, as individual artists there would Hendrix, Dylan, Clapton and others of course.
