I was watching CBS Sunday Morning and they did a segment on Sting and he comes off as such a pretentious gasbag, so I wondered if someone compiled a list. Of course they did. LA Weekly (as if that can't help but be a d-bag publication in its' own right) compiled the following...

The 10 Biggest Classic Rock Douchebags

LINK

TL/DR

10. Jerry Garcia
9. Bob Dylan
8. John Fogerty
7. Lou Reed
6. David Crosby
5. Bruce Springsteen
4. John Lennon
3. Phil Spector
2. Carlos Santana
1. Frank Zappa

Not exactly classic rock, but I saw “douchebags” and Axl Rose immediately popped into my head.

I think you made a good list but not Zappa. He was more of a giant smartass and contrarian than someone who was full of themselves as the rest of that list were/are. Dudes from Oasis probably belong.

Yeah, I'm a big Eagles fan, but David Geffen said something to the extent of Don Henley is the worst egomaniac he's ever met. Geffen knows everyone in Hollywood and music. Think about that.

Why is Santana a douchebag?

He always comes across as humble and hippyish
