- i'm not defending the list. it's a shitty list all other things being equal -- nm - pixitude May 1, 13:13 20
  - but they are now -- nm - Remlik May 1, 13:35 1
    - as far as radio is concerned -- nm - Remlik May 1, 13:36
  - its a crappy, shitty list -- nm - Epiphany May 1, 13:15 4
    - I love the idea, but I dislike the execution. It sounds very much like what a classic southern rock station would pick, though. -- nm - David May 1, 13:16
    - This is the one thing ST agrees on. Even amoxy brought it to the board saying "this list is crap" -- nm - Roger More May 1, 13:16 2
      - the list is crap. But it aint far off from the playlist of my station -- nm - Remlik May 1, 13:36 1
        
        Yeah - it reminds me a lot of the radio station I grew up with. I was disgustingly old before I heard a Led Zeppelin song that wasn't Stairway -- nm - Roger More May 1, 13:43
  - Agreed. Just saying, they cut off sections of the tree, not branches. -- nm - Iron Spawn May 1, 13:14 12
    - we should do our own list - the last 50 bands - random STrs get random bands - and that STr picks the band song - Epiphany May 1, 13:16 11
      - MY FF board (who got very incensed with the list) are doing a Top 100 classic rocksongs - amoxy May 1, 13:25
      - a bracket! -- nm - TFox May 1, 13:18 2
        
        Unheard of! -- nm - Kim Pine May 1, 13:19 1
        
        *snicker* -- nm - Epiphany May 1, 13:20
      - That could be a fun excercise -- nm - con_carne May 1, 13:18 6
        
        is there a random generator and we could put the band + STr into Google docs? - Epiphany May 1, 13:20 5
        
        It would be a fun little exercise. -- nm - Kim Pine May 1, 13:25 3
        
        We actually (sort of) did this already -- (link) - Roger More May 1, 13:45 2
        
        That was a lot of fun -- nm - con_carne May 1, 14:17
        
        But I didn't play! -- nm - Kim Pine May 1, 13:46
        
        That's easy to do. -- nm - Roger More May 1, 13:21
