  3. :laughing: Thanks Kenne .... y'all won't have to vote on that one ever again (I've nominated it about a thousand times, I know)!

    In regards to the final list as a whole: :bow: :bow: :bow: Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    I love the end result, and I'm pleased that you all seem to have enjoyed listening. I did try to keep to songs that hadn't made the ten, but that only helped to make the choices more personal to me. All solid rock and roll, but I hope the list gave you the jazzy-country folk feel that was intended, and that is somewhat unique to my hometown sound.

    :thumbsup:

    Sorry no Connie, Darryl, I didn't have room ... now if it had been Where the Boys Are .... top 5. ;) A lot of great songs this week, I barely had room for my own.

  5. Isn't that what weed is for? :P

    Ha! :laughing: Despite Bluesy's best efforts, I'm apparently not a very good argument for that cause. Though it has not stopped me from trying.

    The good news is, I had my pressure checked today (I feel like a tire), and the eye that was operated on has much lower pressure than the non-operative eye. Which was the whole point, and means I can schedule the other eye, and quit using drops every night (which I forget half the time anyway), and stop this stupid eye disease in it's tracks. Which would mean I can live my entire life with two working eyes. My dad, grandad, and great-grandad all lost their vision to glaucoma. I do not want to be the next generation!

    I'm very happy right now. ;)

  6. They may have - they were one of those midwestern stations with the giant transmitters to reach far and wide. Not sure quite that far though. ;) Artists starting out could get airplay there when they couldn't get it on either coast, including a lot of Canadian bands. New artists, solo efforts, and album cuts being their specialty. Tom Donahue of KMPX San Francisco fame helped to start it up in '67.

    Anyhoo - you bet your a$$ there are hidden gems. They are all hidden gems. ;)

  7. List is a great final list pinkstones, and I really enjoyed listening. You just introduced me to a lot of newer stuff I've never heard before. :bow:

    I was especially surprised at the number of female artists from your list that I voted for. It made me realize I have no women on my list, which is weird, I don't know how that happened. I think it's one of the reasons I enjoyed yours so much.
