Will any bands who are around today be remembered in 30 years time like a band like Zeppelin are now? Radiohead is one, any others?

Did you delete your old question?
Like I said, Radiohead, Porcupine Tree and Opeth if we're lucky and maybe some indie acts like the Shins and Beulah. I'm pretty sure Red Hot Chili Peppers and NIN will also be remebered
I think it was phrased pretty well
When I asked this question I made it "What modern bands do you think will go down in history as classics?" Not much better.

The problem is really that great music being made today tends to be underground. The best of that bunch tends to occasionally rise to the surface. Verve would have been good, Stone Roses should have been good. There is just no longevity. In the 70's, which to me represented the pinnacle of rock, bands were judged more on SOUND than SIGHT. As a result, bands like Kansas, Led Zep, Floyd, Yes, Deep Purple, etc. were breaking new ground all the time. Equally as important, they lasted more than 2 or 3 albums.
I agree with you about Radiohead, though I'm a little lost when I listen to their last 2 recordings.
I'd say the kids will pick up on Verve in 10 years...they were great while they lasted. There seems to be a 20 year factor on vintage music.

I don't remember Led Zeppelin fondly... *shakeshead* I hate them, in fact.
As far as bands who will become legendary/will be remembered... it's a bit of a fickle concept. The Velvet Underground are "legendary" now, but were basically just a cult band when they were around. T. Rex/Marc Bolan, for example, while huge in the UK, was never very popular in the US. I think Bolan is probably more popular in the US now than he was when he was alive.
So, that said...
Smashing Pumpkins
The Church
The Lemonheads
My Chemical Romance (yes, seriously)
The Strokes
Red Hot Chili Peppers
NIN
Bright Eyes
Justin Timberlake
Kanye West
The Clientele
Devendra Banhart
Modest Mouse
Oasis
Jay-Z
etc...
Albeit, some of those listed have already been around for a long time... The Church for close to 30 years already.
Note: I don't like all of the acts I mentioned (but most), but I think they all have something that will make them linger in peoples' memories, in one way or another.

U2 is still around today and making music after more than 20 already, so I'm more than positive they'll be, and perhaps the Red Hot Chili Peppers....as for modern bands today if that's what you're asking, the only band so far that will come even remotely close is Linkin Park

I believe that some will be around in the future. Maybe not as many as were in the past, as there are many that are still good and can make more music, but I believe there will be some.

Nevada is somewhat carefully populated. maybe you are able to head to a state with a stronger inhabitants density. That way it would be extra handy to fulfill extra women folk as an entire, and hence extra sturdy women folk.

Dinosaur Jr.
Electric Wizard
The Melvins
Voivod
Ween
Wilco
Of course, just because the public doesn't remember something doesn't make that thing unimportant. Case in point: The Silver Apples.
