There is most assuredly a way I want this Bracket to turn out.  I will say that I sang one of these remaining songs, got a standing ovation, and was asked back by the bar owner.  Noone asked, but, there it is.  Vote'em up, peeps!


The 4/16





The 2/6



And the One Song to Rule Them All is Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones

... this will go down on your permanent record... -the Violent Femmes, 'Kiss Off'-

"I'm not just anyone, I'm not just anyone-
I got my time machine, got my 'electronic dream!"
-Sonic Reducer, -Dead Boys

the really sad thing in this is that the Satellites have about 20 songs better than that one, but it's the 'gimmick' song that became their big hit


When Dan Baird came thru town promoting his solo album, I got him to autograph my copy of the Satellites' greatest hits.

If I had a nickel for every time you've said that about them, I'd have at least a dollar. :P

Gods, let it not be Journey...

Yeah, was never a fan of Journey. Though Neil Schon is a phenomenal guitarist.

If I had a nickel for every time you've said that about them any band, I'd have at least a dollar the GNP of a European country. :P

You're not too bad about it, Brant. It's only about every third or fourth post you make in these threads.
