Wild Frank Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I didn't like any of the Deer Bands. Bird bands however probably covers a wider base: 1) Black Crowes;2) Jayhawks;3) Byrds4) Eagles5) The Hawks6) The Housemartins7) The Ducks (One for the Neil Young fans)8) The Cardinals I vote for the Jayhawks although The Hawks turned into a pretty good outfit too.
