      first of all jumping into a drum set ain't a rock move, and smashing guitars just proves he's not original enough to have a famous rock move under his. just because you like nirvana and the guy killed himself, doesn't men they're really good, they were just the less worse of the sucky 90's

    Steven Tyler - backflips
    Roger Daltrey - mic twirl/spin
    Dave Lee Roth - Russian split jump
    Ed Van Halen - running-man jump
    Robert Plant - singing pose
    Lemmy Kilmister - upward facing mic stand

    • @roxannemoser
      @roxannemoser 5 років тому

      Diamond Dave does the mic spin too. Got it from Roger. Even busted his own nose with it. I loved his mid air splits. Poor EVH trying to do mid air splits looked pitiful compared to Dave. One thing I thought was a great move for Eddie was the first 3 of 8 times I saw VH, Eddie ran around stage and kicked his Marshall stacks until they would rock back and forth, but not fall over. But, let me add, your list is GREAT! Steven Tyler's backflips were always from a standing still position. Iconic! He has talked about how bad those have screwed up his feet.

      I'd say the duck walk is more widely known outside the rock scene, but spasms are arguably just as widely recognized by those who care about good music.
      Also, the duck walk is just not his ... It's like a 14 year old claiming that "It's better to burn out than to fade away" is a quote by Kurt Cobain.

      The mUnky' I know, but he's not really the person you'd associate with rock music. He only played the guitar in The Jackson 5, if I'm not mistaken.

      The mUnky' Yeah, I know what you mean, but Queen used guitars in pretty much every song they put out, which could not be said for MJ. But I get where you're coming from.

      Also the fact that MJ is known as the king of POP kinda of makes it a bit weird. Sure he did have lots of rock songs but have two go with myles. They should have put in the Tenacious D power slide.
