I voted for Canada because:
1) I'm Canadian
2) There are a LOT of great bands that tour exclusively in Canada, which creates a phenominal scene that is under-represented in the rest of the world
3) I figured Canada would be under-reresented in the poll as well :p

By the decades.

50s: USA
60s: Tie
70s: UK
80s: Tie
90s: USA
00s: USA

Granted the 70s are my favorite decade so I'd probably go with the UK anyway.

That's an interesting way of doing it. Here's my take:

50s: USA
60s: Tie
70s: Tie
80s: UK
90s: UK
00s: USA

I like this way of doing it fellas but unless we're going to start taking skiffle into account, we may want to start at the 60's.
