What I hoped for, and feared, has come to pass. It'd be too difficult to go back and look, but I am fairly sure our 1/2 Championship matchup is rare. So I'm proud of me for getting right and for you folks for, well, getting it right ;) Now for what I fear, having to decide. I have few loves like the love I have for Zeppelin. They were a major factor in my teen years. And I never cared as much for the Stones as I did The Beatles or The Who. But over the last few years, I have grown to really dig the stuff I once looked down on. And Gimme Shelter is just one bad ass, sinister tune. I'm torn. I hope you are, too O0
The 1/2
The pain... the pain!
^ ;D ;D stags just pretty much summed it up!!!! I'm torn alright... Darn you MD, and your musical match ups! Although I did help make that happen... Soooo, it is what it is! Voting time... Hell yeah :D
this one was pretty easy to me :)
^ then the right song might win then, eh! ;)
Only if by 'right song,' you mean some low rent, cheesy, 80's hair metal that the band that made song didn't even care about that Brant has glommed on to and thinks is, 'great.'

tough to do in 1969 :)
I think some 80s acts got their musical inspiration from the 60s.... Just sayin :-" not that I'm trying to stir musical rantings up or anything.....
I was speaking in generalities. As much crap as I give Brant for his questionable taste in some genres of music, I can't deny his love for music. And that's all that really matters.

*I* am not the one that thinks All Along the Watchtower is better than Little Wing...

He's got you there, MD.
I meant genres as a whole, not specific songs inside the genre. So, the only thing he has on me is the bad taste to deny the greatness of Hendrix' Watchtower ;)
I just want you guys to fight O0
Instigator! Isn't there some sort of Christmas truce?
I need my entertainment too.
Maybe you should look into gladiator movies.
That's what these threads are for me :P
Nerdiators

It's a Christmas Miracle!

Ok. You got me :-[ ;)
There's no ducking it.
Cluck off!
I meant to take this down last night. Got sidetracked playing games. The winner, as I think most of us thought it would be, is, Gimme Shelter! The fourth Rolling Stones song to win one of these things. A full 10% of Bracket winners.

Thank gawd for that :)

Mirth has to go suck a blizzard first
I'm at my blizzard quota for the week.
Sun is shining here today. Going to be a balmy 45 degrees. My misery comes Thursday morning. They are promising a wintry mix in the a.m. What that means is, not cold enough for snow and just rainy enough that I will be soaking wet by 8 a.m. and have to work like that all day with the temp in the high 30's. Yay :(
