Just put it where you see fit. I will say that there have been a few mentioned in this thread that will probably get moved to another region. When I said alternative rock I was really thinking of the newer rock band style like Linkin or Papa Roach popularized. Progressive rock like Genesis would also fit.
I realize this isn't easy. And, I appreciate the time you put into it (you really did). I don't get these musicians' names as the regions. Three of them are token players in the grand scheme of Rock n Roll on a good day. Chester Bennington? Who is he again?
Ouch, this is a massive fail on your part. I'm assuming Lennon is the only one you think isn't a token player, but the others are big players as well. Cornell is widely regarded as one of the best voices ever in rock music and Chester Bennington (lead singer of Linkin Park who died less than a year ago) is the singer of a band who is consider one of the leaders of the "alternative" rock music genre. I'll give you Burton as being a token player to the masses. That being said, he is consider a legend by bass players in Metal. I also tried to keep it as a kind of tribute to those who died tragically.
Sorry for the massive fail on my part.
You're fine. I figured it was going to be a little confusing just because of the number of great bands out there. Just continue to put them in whatever region you want to and I'll move it around if it's needed. Need all the participation we can get, especially considering your knowledge of rock music is more nuanced than most.
You're good. I figured trying to get everyone into the appropriate genre was going to be the hardest part of the tournament. Trying to break down 5,000 sub genres of rock into 4 regions isn't the easiest thing to do.
