I'm really surprised that Brian May isn't on the list.
Dr. May, for those who don't know, holds a Ph.D in astrophysics. What's more, he actually went back to complete his Ph.D. in 2007. He gave up the rockstar lifestyle to go be.. an astrophysicist.
Really, I don't think it gets much geekier than that.
It also strikes me as odd that they'd put David Byrne on the list, but not Brian Eno.
