Um...how is the second round going to work if we have five brackets, man? :???:

Hey Cluricaun, 8 or 16 songs. 10 won't work. Let me know how you want to fix it. Either find 6 more or eliminate two.

Kill Hot 'Lanta and Southbound then. Sorry, I'm new at this. :lol:

And Jessica isn't up there, nor is Lil' Martha.

Keep adding songs.

Preview: Missed it. Oh well. Jessica and Lil' Martha will be my write in votes.

What! No Jessica?

This is why I wasn't sure about doing this.

No worries.

2b) Whipping Post

3b) Midnight Rider

I expect Rambling man to beat out Midnight Rider because it is probably more well known, but if Whipping Post doesn't win it all there is something wrong with the posters here.

1b) Blue Sky

2b) Whipping Post

3a) Ramblin Man

4a) Statesboro Blues


Also missing was "No One to Run With" but as 2b and 3a are my favorites, I'm OK with these 8 and running 16 is a pain in the butt.

1a) Melissa

2b) Whipping Post

3b) Midnight Rider

4a) Statesboro Blues

1b. Blue Sky
2b. Whipping Post
3a. Ramblin' Man
4b. One Way Out


Write-in votes for:

Jessica
Mountain Jam

I'm weeping at the thought of tossing either Ramblin Man or Midnight Rider in the first round, but here goes:

1a) Melissa

2b) Whipping Post

3b) Midnight Rider

4b) One Way Out



Jessica FTW, in my heart.

Take solace in the fact that while Ramblin Man is a good song, Dickey Betts sounds like Kermit the Frog singing through a kazoo on it.

I'm listening to Jessica right now. It really did deserve a spot but Whipping Post should win it all.

Heh. I've got Mountain Jam blasting on the ipod as I type. I keep repeating the section right after the drum/bass solo, where Duane and Dickey trade slide guitar licks and flat-out wail.

If any of my students happen to glance in the window, they'll see their teacher playing a wicked air slide guitar around the classroom. :D

Bump. Anyone want to dispute Whipping Post, or is this won?

Whipping Post won back at post #1.

I agree, Whipping Post would have won no matter what.
