You funny, funny people....
While Liz Phair's "Exile" is one of my desert island discs, as is The Posies "Failure", overall they're not top ten material. And Madonna?! Kosmo, just 'cuz I'm going to the concert? That damn Markie, he told you I had Madonna on in my car. It was
one song on a mix!! But you certainly got the gist of my list, yessiree bob, you did.
Here's my list -- now this is alltime top ten (actually 11):
Bob Mould
The Replacements
Siouxsie & the Banshees
Foo Fighters
that dog.
Cheap Trick/The Police
Sloan
Jellyfish
Tommy Keene
Judybats
One thing I think is interesting is this list, which I just posted on another site -- it's your 10 favorite *currently active* bands -- so kind of your faves right now.
Good topic....I almost think 10 on this list is harder than Desert Island discs.
Snow Patrol
The Wrens
Sleater-Kinney
Sloan
Scout
Foo Fighters
Fountains of Wayne
Guided by Voices
Washington Social Club
The Decemberists/New Pornographers (tie, I'm cheating)
Dammit: Spoon, Idlewild and Soundtrack of our Lives have to be honorable mentions. Told ya this was hard. As for doing list for y'all, I'm terrible at that. I know a few fave bands: I'd put
- Lloyd Cole on Brennser's
- couldn't believe Beautiful South wasn't on Mank's first list
- figure Old 97s and Pernice for Rhett (but don't know if they're all time or current faves)
- going with bands with cute hair is about as well as I could do for LuLu
- pollard's got GBV and a bunch of Pitchfork darlings
- Sugartastic El Tee is a band coming to Birchmere I've never heard of
- Lily loves her Damien Rice
- Markie -- The tyde, the Delgados, and some stuff Pollard's given him recently
- Dupek, some prog rock I know by name but am not so sure I know any songs
- thirsty, something loud
- redsock, EXIT CLOV
- Skeeter, a mix of jam and indie and post-punk and...damn that guy loves music
- Bede, GBV and....?
- Kurosawa, all the coolest shit coming out of the British Isles (or music that sounds like it comes from the British Isles but is from Brooklyn)\
-ggw, he seems to go to just about everything and I can't tell if he's liking it or not, but he did see Dylan
multiple times, didn't he....he's old school I'm thinkin'
- Kosmo, no doubt there are five power pop bands I had never heard of before meeting him -- like starbelly, De Novo Dahl, the Shazam, Myracle Brah
- samantha, I GOT BIG TITS and I'M IN HIGH SCHOOL
- flawd, a bunch of bands I have NEVER heard of
- guiny, I have no clue
- sonick, let's all say it together, radiohead
I forgot people, sorry, never thought I was going to do that....
