Who were your favourites bands in 1981, 1991 and 2001?

Assuming, of course, that you were born and musically aware in each of those years.

1981 - Altered Images
1991 - Sonic Youth
2001 - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

same here

I was 12 and 13 during 1981. I also liked Styx and Olivia Newton-John a lot, but I remember liking The Doors so much that I would listen to the radio constantly to try and tape their songs when played. A friend got me into Devo in the seventh grade too. I didn't start listening to The Beatles really until the following year when the local station did an A-to-Z The Beatles weekend and I taped all of the songs on several cassettes.

Did you get to see NIN around '91? I saw them support Guns 'n' Roses about then. They were pretty good, but not really suitable for a stadium show.

EDIT - And I saw DM in 1981 and SY in 2001!

I've only seen them twice.
First time was at the Paradiso on 31 May 94.
Second time at the 013 on 28 Nov 99.
