Day 3: huge amount of artists to check, around 100 or more, expect delayed replies
Update: Checked around 50 artists, 50 more left for tomorrow.
Today is going to be last day to add missing artists to the list.
After that, it will be rare exceptions only.

yes, it's totally about influential and noteworthy music artists, or unique ones, some of them were already on list, some were missing, list isn't even close to final state yet, any contribution is very valuable <3
p.s. not sure if MJ shall be here, he is the king of pop, so even that i wanted to add him, it might be not so good idea. :<
Otis Redding seems to be soul and rhythm and blues artist
Howlin' Wolf is blues artist.

Hmm, it sounds like an interesting way to find new/old rock bands to listen to :) I think I'd be interested in participating for a few bands (Pantera, Municipal Waste, Toxic Holocaust), although the games I'll have to give won't be super amazing haha.
It would be helpful to have some sort of format for people who'd like to join. Like placement, train links, whether to write only the genre or a little bit of bio too, approximatively how many songs to put, stuff like that.
I'll keep looking for updates on this thread and make up my mind ^^

You put Linkin Park which is pretty much electronic now but you are not sure about metal band? Or you have to like the band or what ;p

thanks for your contribution! :)
Disturbed and Godsmack were in list from the start;
Drowning Pool and Halestorm were added;
In This Moment, Lacuna Coil, Nonpoint, Static-X, Tool - not sure about these artists, some of them might be in train, it will depend on amount of games contributed.

In This Moment is "fairly" new, but you've never heard of Lacuna Coil, Nonpoint, Static-X or Tool? O.o
Comment has been collapsed.
of course i did, by "not sure" i mean that i have doubts about including them in train (you see, amount of contributed artists is way way more than amount of contributed games (at least for now), so i'll have to cut that list saving most valuable artists at some point :\ )

Thanks for your contribution :)
Added most of listed artists.
Can't believe i actually forgot about Foreigner and Survivor.
Had to add Jefferson Airplane (Hot Tuna, Jefferson Starship, Starship), because it's pretty hard to pick one. I'll decide later.
Genesis, Tears for Fears, U2 - not sure about these artists.

Some of the artist that I don't see in the comments also - Adema, Axel Rudy Pell, Bullet for my Valentine, Iced Earth, Demon Hunter, Gamma Ray, Esoterica, Hypnogaja, Shinedown, Staind, StoneSour, The Cramberries.
A quick shout out for my home country's talented bands - Odd Crew and Sevi \m/
Me and my avatar, of course vote with 10 000 fists for Disturbed and I'll love to help with some of the wagons on this (to be) epic train!

Thanks for contribution of artists AND games :)
Disturbed was already on the list, together with Iced Earth.
Added some artists from your list.
However, i'm really not sure about Bullet for my Valentine, Demon Hunter, Esoterica and Shinedown.
I'll have to listen more songs by Odd Crew and Sevi to decide as well :)

TL;DR: Making rock'n'roll -> rock -> metal train.
Updates:
List is closed for adding now, you still can share artists you like though, it's really appreciated.
In need of giveaway contributors, since there are much more artists than games gathered so far.
Also, I think no more artists are needed, since it's time to remove like half of them, due to not enough contributions.
Template for giveaway is ready, although it's raw. Feel free to suggest how to make it better on the GA page.
bold artists are staying for sure,
crossedartists will be removed, most likely (in case of not enough GA)Hello everyone.
This is my first thread, made to celebrate:
Speaking of train theme, it will be "Rock and Metal History", from the oldest artists, to the modern ones. And I'm making this thread in preparation for such train... and this is where you come in, to help me make the train!
This train will consist of 50-100 stops roughly (it really depends on community interest about it), and each stop will contain information about the artist, logo, photos and Youtube links to the best songs.
Details:
It's my first train and I want it to be great! And YOU can help me make it great! Contribute your suggestions, thoughts, and ideas (for example - mention missing artists in the list below) or contribute a game, and make the train longer and better! Any game is much appreciated, it doesn't have to be related to rock'n'roll or metal, but it must be region-free, as mentioned above.
I figured that there could be two ways of contributing a game:
People who are interested in helping me with games, please send a friend request to me on Steam, and we can figure out the details in private.
If you have an idea about train improving, please make your intellectual contribution in the comment below.
And now let me finally introduce you the list of artists (which is subject to be changed), sorted alphabetically, so it will be easier to find missing ones (comment below if you see a deserving artist missing in the list):
The 13th Floor Elevators,3 Doors Down(?),The 69 Eyes(?)Budgie(?), The ByrdsP.S. There probably will be no folk artists or artists from Asia, because it would make train neverending.
