I'm glad my turn is over and I look forward to Laurie being next (fingers crossed ;) )

I wish more people had voted for Wilco, because I know of at least three people who would love them.

But I'm glad every one fell in love with the My Morning Jacket song. No one seemed to catch wise that it's the same dude doing vocals on that and Going to Acapulco.

And I am super happy Dusty and Laura Nyro made it. :thumbsup:

Poor Connie Francis can't get in the R & R HOF or my PTT :laughing:
