Default Tibb's favourite British band.
A few years ago I did Tibb's favourite British sitcom, tragically won by Absolutely Fabulous. Now I want to do Tibb's favourite British band.

I need 36 bands before we can start, to go into the first round knockout stage.

So suggest some bands to me in this thread who should be in.

I will accept Fleetwood Mac even though they were British/American because they originally were British.


So far we have

Genesis
Pink Floyd

Should I allow groups such as Take That and the Spice girls or have it as instrumental bands?

I wouldn't be sure about that. This is Tibb. Wolf Alice or The 1975 probably has more chance than the Beatles.
