[El Floppo]

Nothing real happened after Y2K.

I read about this band in here- Fountains from DC or something.

Of Wayne From Wilco.

That's my new band!

 

[Eephus]

Peter Bjorn and John released a new album the week before shutdown last year

ETA:  no whistling so far

Daly City

Daly City

Whenever I heard about Barca playing tiki taka, I thought about this song about Daly City.

Or tiki taki if you're Ronald Koeman.  Song could use some whistling though.

The Counting Crows were good tonight. It was weird seeing Adam Duritz with no dreadlock wig or facial hair.  Frank Turner opened for the band, and I liked him. 

 

[rockaction]

My answer to that song:

I'm Not Like Everybody Else

Cool. The Counting Crows get a bad rap, but they're fine by me.

Frank Turner is like a folk/punk God to a lot of people. I drafted him in Genrepalooza, actually.

 

[rockaction]

This is the song I drafted.

I Believed You, William Blake

I remember it because it's about a woman who believed her more-than-eccentric husband but is having doubts as she dies.

It's really moving. He's quite good at that, apparently. I have friends back East (home) who love him.

 

[simey]

NFW am I going in a WalMart.

I'm gonna go tomorrow and wear my cat pants.

 

[rockaction]

Mr. William Blake
There's one promise you must make
Dear William, if you're right
About life on the other side, about Paradise
Then you must promise me
That you won't leave me when you leave
This world that didn't believe
Be a comfort to your wife
She gave you up her one and only certain life

Don't you leave me in my grave
I believed you William Blake
I'll be with you, damned or saved
Don't you leave me in my grave
I believed you William Blake

Frank was fun. There was a guy that played with him on the mandolin. Frank was wearing a black Paul McCartney shirt. When he came back on stage near the end of the CC's show and joined them, he had on a black shirt that said something about Punk.

 

[the moops]

Sorry - got drunk. Skkip me. Although I may make a pick before I sleep

And thanks @krista4

THREAD KILLER!

 

[krista4]

Getting drunk is a valid reason for missing the pick.  Right, Binky?  All is forgiven.

For fatguy:

3.16  AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long (#287)

@simey

Very cool. My friends really dig him. He just did a split recording with Fat Mike of NOFX, doing each other's old songs. I can't believe I haven't sat down and listened to it yet.

I always worried this would be me. Good news: It isn't.

[Eephus]

Who was the guy in a few music drafts with an Adam Duritz avatar?

I'm bad with fake names.

 

[krista4]

Hey, that was the first pick in 276-300, meaning 401-425 becomes the last grouping with a pick!  Congrats to 401-425 - you are the best grouping!

@dal_boys_phan

 

[krista4]

Or @rockactionwith simey's pick, if she left.

 

[Chaos Commish]

she was a fast machine

she kept her motor clean

she was the best damn woman 

that i've ever seen

she had sightless eyes

tellin me no lies

and knocking me out 

with those american thighs

sniped again 

acdc's best singalong if you ask me.

 

[rockaction]

I'll give her five. Is that okay? NV is after her and is on skip and I'm after that, then you.

 

[krista4]

Of course!

All the other blocs from 375 to 500 have been decimated. Weird that we have left that one alone.

Oh ####, I didn't realize I was nearly up again.  I thought I knew what I was doing, but some hits in a lot of segments might make me rethink.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

I was gonna go to bed but if there's a torrent of picks coming in the next 10 minutes, I'll stay up for those.

Yeah, isn't that crazy?

 

[Pip's Invitation]

Don't tell me you're drunk drafting too. Seems to be a thing here. 

 

[Binky The Doormat]

Sorry - got drunk. Skkip me. Although I may make a pick before I sleep

shame.

unacceptable really.  

 

[krista4]

I was gonna go to bed but if there's a torrent of picks coming in the next 10 minutes, I'll stay up for those. 

I'm not sure that @Atomic Punkor @Mrs. Rannouswould still be around, so we might just get through cos.

 

[krista4]

Don't tell me you're drunk drafting too. Seems to be a thing here. 

Not tonight.  But always on the table.

Barely upright

Give me 

Enjoy the Silence - Depeche Mode (415)

This is so ####### good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_3dc6X-Iwo

 

[simey]

I love everything about this song starting with the organ.

Round 3 - A Whiter Shade of Pale - Procol Harum  (271)

 

[Pip's Invitation]

Not tonight.  But always on the table.

@Northern Voice

 

[Pip's Invitation]

@Northern Voice

He's on skip. @rockactionup.

 

[rockaction]

Northern Voice was being skipped, so in the interest of moving it along...

I'll never forget when I heard this for the first time, either. This blew my mind. I can't believe I'm passing on Marvin Gaye for this, but I am. wikkid would wonder, but then he'd know.

3.19 - Hey Ya! (10) - Outkast

you're a killer.

I know who you are talking about.

With a little luck

WHOA WHOA WHOA!  Gimme a second to catch up.  I was just going over my strategy with OH, who truly does not GAF.

Hear that sound? That's cos tapping his foot in the background, verrrrrry patiently.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

I'm listening to Failure's Fantastic Planet. Whilst Enjoy the Silence was taken, which has been covered by Failure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Obg2rHYpiwA

 

[krista4]

Ah, OK, so @cosjobs won't have to wait, I'm sticking with my strategy.  This grouping didn't excite me to begin with, and attrition has made it very unappealing with only a couple of exceptions.  

Speaking of Bay City Rollers (weren't we?  a few pages ago?), I love that these guys thought that's what they were doing:

3.20  Ramones - Sheena Is A Punk Rocker (#434)

 

[Pip's Invitation]

WHOA WHOA WHOA!  Gimme a second to catch up.  I was just going over my strategy with OH, who truly does not GAF.

OH listening to you talking about this is probably like me listening to my son when he talks about Minecraft. 

 

[krista4]

I've had that song stuck in my head for three days, so I'm hoping finally taking it will cure me.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

3.20  Ramones - Sheena Is A Punk Rocker (#434)

This was my other backup plan if Powderfinger was gone.
