Kevin's Watch

Thought this was kind of interesting. Haven't gone all the way through it yet though.....had to stop at Georgia. WTF? They pick REM over the Allman Brothers? What were they smoking.

They got Alabama right with Hank Williams tho!

The Shins are the best from New Mexico? Doesn't say much....

hmmmmm

i gotta wonder about this, ducky. i'll have to investigate further but at first glance, i'm not agreeing with this too much.

i have no earthly idea who those people they've listed from ky are but do they not know that marvin gaye was from ky?? uh...hello???
AND no Morphine OR Aerosmith from Boston??? excuse me??? the Pixies??? yeesh.

at this point i'm sorta afraid to look further!!

...and for Florida...

Skynard?
Tom Petty??

...oy vey...

Oh come on. I don't know Morphine, but the Pixies were way better than bloody Aerosmith.

Should have been Aerosmith for MA.

Oh ... what Luci M said.

Pixies are tiny, annoying insect-like things that you swat.

oh puhleeese!! aerosmith can beat ALL the pixies combined with joe perry's guitar prowess ALONE and i LIKE the pixies (especially kim deal.)

and if you knew morphine, you'd really be choking on those words (may mark sandman rest in peace.) possibly THE most creative three piece since...cream or the hendrix exp.

cov...

GO BUY THIS RIGHT NOW!!



buena

While I don't fully agree with the Kansas one, I do respect and appreciate the Embarassment. I'd probably pick the Rainmakers myself. Hell, they were featured in a Stephen King book.

I can hardly trust your judgement on this, since Hendrix and his Experience has never done anything for me.

yeah. riiight. (what he said about michael mcdonald too folks!) whatEVAH.

I'm no musician, so I probably hear him differently. To me, he sounds like he should still be taking lessons. Or he's playing using a haddock instead of his hands.

whats he playin cov?
what instruments are in the three piece cov?
how many strings is sandman playing on that thing he's playing.
what's missing from the band cov?

try this one.

Cov, don't put up with her crap. Some 3 piece bands, like RUSH, have drums, percussion, keyboards, synthesizers, guitars, bass, and vocals. Most others were guitar/bass/drums. The Police was a great example of a 3 piece. Cream was cool, too; just a little busy sometimes. ELP was 3 piece, but used keyboards instead of guitars. As for Hendrix, you prolly couldn't even hear him over that horrible bassist he used. Thank God he finally fired that guy and got his old bassist back!

MY point, mr. bassnut, is that morphine and areosmith both beat the pixies for mass. bands. hands down. easily. where is rush from again?
NOT massa...massachutesets...however you spell it.

ps..

police = bass/guitar/drums
cream = bass/ guitar/drums
rush = bass/ guitar/ drums
hendrix = bass/ guitar/ drums

elp? heh. i went to sleep at an elp concert. snnnooooozer.

I just checked Colorado (strange how I didn't think to do that despite living here for almost a third of my life). Surprisingly, they got it exactly right. I figured they'd throw Big Head Todd in there. Thankfully, they didn't.

Why do you think I stopped at Georgia?

From Florida, I would had to say Tampa's own The Outlaws
(We DO have Green Grass and Highways Forever )
