    • One of the Zep songs I would have hoped to grab a little later was Ten Years Gone, kinda surprised -- pleasantly surprised that is -- that it went before the normal Zep-fair.

        If folk wanted hard-rules and limitations, it should have been done beforehand.
        Agree with this. I have some post-2000 songs to choose.

          • One of the great crimes in music history is the fact that Marc Bolan never became the massive star that he should have been in the U.S.

              • I'm wondering if we should have placed a limit on number of songs a person can pick of a single artist. I'm going to try to limit myself to one but we'll see how it goes.
                If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                    To foster an explosion of Chance's head, my next 10 picks were going to be Rush songs!

                            Same could be said for the Beatles, Stones, Pink Floyd, Bowie, and a band that hasn't even been picked yet!

                              But mostly, I wanted to nominate "Laid" by James.
                              James is one my favorite bands.
