Outside of The Eagles, are any of those bands actually legendary? For instance, I think only the Gallagher brothers consider Oasis legendary.
That being said, yes, all of those bands suck.
Just Curious, what is your criteria for "legendary"?Outside of The Eagles, are any of those bands actually legendary? For instance, I think only the Gallagher brothers consider Oasis legendary.

Also, NOFX> Rancid.
my 1st concert was Zebra at St Dominics CYOMy first concert was Lallapalooza with the Ramones, Rancid, Metallica, Rage, Sponge, etc, and a few years later I went to the Warped Tour with Bad Religion, NOFX, Rancid, The Specials, and others.
The best one love was BR, but NOFX put a lot more into their show than the other acts. Funny story, they threw money into the crowd on account of the show being moved from the outside to inside the Astrodome (because it was too hot outside) and they were set up to play outdoors, and their sound was off. They had MxPx and the Aquabats throw money into the crowd and Fat Mike says “we have some guys in funny outfits throwing money, and it’s real money, and you can trust the guys throwing it because they are Mormon.”
i like inxs. not sure how to categorize them. kind like punk influenced new wave?
foo fighters and dave grohl sound like arse.

I told my wife this last night, and I think it qualifies.
Foo Fighters these days are considered a Gen X alt rock legend. However, they mostly sort of defaulted into that slot due to everyone else breaking up and/or dying.
The original tier 1 of Alt Rock was Nirvana, PJ, Soundgarden, AIC, and STP. Back when alt rock was actually happening, Foo Fighters were a very clear tier 2 band, and were never considered to be peers to that upper tier that I just mentioned.
It just happens that they eventually earned it via attrition, as it's only them and Pearl Jam still around.
PS - I love Foo Fighters, so this isn't meant as a shot at them. Just an observation.
Point of order: "alt-rock" and Seattle grunge are not synonymous. Grunge is a sub-genre of alt-rock, but there are others. Grunge dominated for a period of a few years and the top bands deserve their place - particularly Nirvana for their originality and inspiration, and Pearl Jam as sort of being the most prolific while retaining quality.
But there are other legendary alt-rock bands of the 1990s that you would never include in the same discussion that puts the grunge bands in tiers (e.g. Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, Jane's, Pixies, Green Day).
Personally I don't consider Foo Fighters to be grunge - they're really more post-grunge where the various strands of alt-rock became more homogenized for mainstream radio and video consumption - unfortunately. But in that history, I would consider Foo Fighters to be a top act. Their first three albums (2 and 3 especially) hold up to just about anybody in the decade in the broad, rock/alt-rock genre - differentiating is really more about style than quality IMO.
