I was hoping to grab Tumbling Dice and Happy on the turn. An then Angie then next time round - I didn't think it would go this early. Guh, first pick was the sh!ttiest draw possible in this draft... :grumble grumble:
Gimme Shelter was the one I nearly took at #1."When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."

My one Stones show. It was damn good for a stadium show, but I don't need to see them again because they're so freaking expensive.

Damn, i missed this one. Just got back from 2 1/2 weeks in Costa Rica, that's why I didn't participate in the Australia draft either.
But thanks for considering me guys, I really wanted to do this one! I'll catch up with the picks tomorrow and do some critiquing.One martini, two martini, three martini, floor.Comment

hmmmm, participating in two double-fake drafts or spending 18 days in paradise? I'm sure you didn't miss your fugazy internet friends!Originally posted by ManCalledFoot View PostComment

We're only mid-2nd....if you want just pick 2 songs and slot in at the back end.Originally posted by ManCalledFoot View PostIf 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.

Yeah, let us know if you wanna do that.
A couple of my friends were just in CR as well, mainly for the Jungle Jam music festival. Did you go to that?Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

Can't You Hear Me Knocking might be my favorite Stones song. Mick Taylor's finest moment. I held off with my first two picks because I'd taken it in the Classic Rock Draft, but I would have taken it had it come back to me again.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

I didn't remember you taking it in the CRD, but I was afraid if I waited any longer it might be gone. It was about the only "must have" for me.Comment

Yep, pretty late, sometime after round 20. The Stones were one of the bands I waited on.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

Thought about "Can't You Hear Me Knockin'" but it would've been more about gaining kudos since it's a song I like rather than love. Solid pick.Comment

Thanks again guys, but it's too late, it's ok.
I thought "Gimme Shelter" would've been a slam dunk #1 on this board, surprised to see it go kinda late. It's a song that's grown in stature over the last 25 years or so, sort of like the Beatles "In My Life", or "It's A Wonderful Life" in moviedom.
"(Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo) Heartbreaker" would have killed me going so early... #5 overall! It's always been a huge favorite of mine and I thought you could wait until Round 2 or so to grab it.
"Satisfaction" could've/should've been #1 too, easily.
Never cared at all for "You Can't Always Get What You Want", sorry Sheep!
Love me some "Monkey Man", "Happy", "Bitch" and especially "Can't You Hear Me Knocking"... all would have been in my Top 10.
My big sleeper hasn't gone yet, might be a while.
Erik: I know nothing about any Jungle Jam... on Thursday we did watch a traditional Costa Rican music revue at a carnival in the boondock farming town of Matapalo, if that counts! We were blitzed out of our minds that night, the only four sunburned gringos in attendance; but all the folks around us were more than friendly and beaming with pride when we applauded and whooped it up... great night.One martini, two martini, three martini, floor.Comment

I pm'ed DMT if the picks get to me."I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."Comment
