Being Emo Makes You An Icon

03/12/07
. (PR) Kerrang has proclaimed Angus Young the top Rock Icon. But then the crack set in and Dave Grohl nabbed the second place spot. Others in the Top 10 include Billie Joe Armstrong, Iron Maiden's mascot Eddie, Kurt Cobain, James Hetfield, Dimebag, Rob Halford and Amy Lee. For some reason Wentz is high up on the list thus invalidating it entirely. Because let's be honest, anyone that sports the same haircut as Rosie O'Donnell is suspect and anyone who's haircut is more important than their music is definitely not an icon. Plus everyone knows Gerald Way is a much bigger icon than Jimmy Page (for those that aren't Emo trendies, he's in My Chemical Romance thus worthy of a top 10 spot!) Not to mention Courtney Love being far more important than Sid Vicious. You can check out the full list at the full story link courtesy of GreenDay.net and look for next years list to lose the emo clowns in favor of whatever is trendy then. - Click here for the Full Story
