    Isn’t U2 from Ireland?
    Ireland is in Britain isn't it? But you are right under those terms the Undertones are from Northern Ireland and thus not British, or is it the other way around?
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

      No Gerry and the Pacemakers, Freddie and the Dreamers, The Hollies, The Searchers, Manfred Mann, The Zombies, Moody Blues, Easybeats, Eric Burdon and The Animals and who can forget the Baron knights

        It could be a sub category - it could also include American & Australian bands that should be English that are not.
        More of an In Bruges guy?

          Which neatly takes us back to my question about the Experience. British or American?

                Yep ... disappointed there is no option for the Beatles. Love sitting and listening to them on vinyl with my 9 year old boy.

                  Yep, it would have been Beatles for me too for a band who's music influenced a lot of people over a decade.
                  A mate of mine played a couple of their songs to his then 16 year old son who didn't know who they were and he couldn't get enough of them.

                    My God. Is the IRA still a thing? You might want to check your car before you start it.

                    I also just realised that the thread is for the Geatest Brirish band of all time so I assume all the members needed to have been drunk most of the time to qualify?

                      Ummm. Is this even a question.

                      There is only one band that matters!

                      To anyone who doesn't understand, type 'Who is the only band that matters' into google and you will be immediately enlightened!
