Elvis--- i agree
Johnny casah--- I agree
John Lennon--- I agree
I am assuming you meant Paul McCartney here and I think I would sub in Mick Jagger on this one
Bruce springstein--- NO----I add Jiim Morrison
James Hetfield--- I agree
Bono--- No I hate him, I'll give him credit for leadership, gimmicks and lasting fame but NO on the skills, he's lame. I'll say Eric Clapton
Bon jovi--- No, not on my list I'll add Don Henley
Billie Joe--- NO, my vote goes to Buddy Holly

I'm sorry but some of your rock stars aren't really rock stars. Jon Bon Jovi!? Are you serious?! And Bono? All he wants to do is talk about saving the planet when he makes all those millions and really does not give any of his money to charity,
These are your top ten rock stars:
1-Ozzy Ousborne (originally from Black Sabbath)
2-John Lennon (better yet, the whole band, the Beatles)
3-Elvis Presley
4-Jim Morrison (The Doors)
5-Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin)
6-Chris Cornell (Soundgarden/Audioslave)
7-Rob Zombie
8-Mick Jagger
9-Neil Young
10-Jimmy Hendrix

Billie Joe Armstrong is my favorite...I can't and don't feel like naming 10 rock stars off the top of my head cuz I'd have to think about it for a while.
