im happy with number 2, I love that song.

It looks like a decent list, but round about #73 they ran out of good ideas and starting including crap.

I think it's fairly well done. A Fear song, a NoMeansNo song, a Stranglers song, and a 999 song would have been nice.

They didn't include The Stranglers?

I think Fear is actually the grossest oversight. "I Love Livin' in the City" and "New York's Alright If You Like Saxophones" are entirely classic.

I can understand them missing Fear from a commercial persepective (meaning they simply may not have heard them), but I was under the impression that The Stranglers were the most successful punk group of all time.

Maybe that's just the UK.

:speechlessness:

My favorite local band is coming back and playing thier homecoming show in vancouver tonight after being away for like 3 months on tour.

I'm painfully excited.

It was an okay list I guess. I don't agree with the order too much, but they have Bastards of Young, Pink Turns to Blue, and two Minutemen songs. That's pretty good I guess.

Wow, no "Academy Fight Song", "Peking Spring", "Progress", or "Mica" in the Top 100. Interesting.

You don't list which bands wrote and recorded those songs because you want us to be scratching our heads.

That would be correct (all of them are Mission of Burma). I think you should start posting as Zappa more often though.

Also, none of the Fall's music was mentioned which is odd.

I don't like lists.



My weekend was basically filled up with Harry Potter, but I did manage to catch two utterly terrible bands on Friday night.

Yep, lists are crappy and H. Potter is [B]no[/B] good.

Oh shi.

You're the second one today to encourage Zappa posting. Hmm.

I don't generally lump Mission of Burma or The Fall in with the sorts of bands that made that list. It was almost all '77 stuff and 80s hardcore.

Holy crap, the link that Zmev posted for the list has about a hundred other music-related lists underneath it.

I'm tempted to look, but then I'll just be severely angered.

*looks up top 100 bassists anyway* :(

Totally off-topic, I saw Charlie & The Chocolate Factory today.

I saw it yesterday. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Johnny Depp was pretty good.

I'm going to see it tomorrow. That or Wedding Crashers.

I was gonna see Charlie and the chocolate factory but evil peoples canceled on me :upset:

I have no intent to see that movie. Hot Topic sells shirts with golden tickets (don't ask me why I know what they have a hot topic...i have a....little sister).

I had the best weekend ever. I saw Sin City on Saturday night which was amazing and then saw The Blood Brothers the next day. The only thing that topped it off was that I met Johnny Whitney who was one of the nicest guys I've ever met.

My weekend was utter bullsh[B][I][/B][/I]it. I hate weekends.

Yesterday I got up earlier than usual to go rehearse for a non-paying band gig about a half hour away. Because very few people showed up (we had no tubas, 1 trombone, etc), the gig was called off, but I still spent an hour and a half sight-reading lame band arrangements of crappy show tunes (Andrew Lloyd Webber should die). Grr.

It's really good. The beginning parts with poor Charlie Bucket have Conor Oberst singing in the background, and the insane boat ride is complemented by The Mars Volta :)

I like Andrew Lloyd Webber. Our school is huge on musical theatre, which I am not. It's good being involved in productions though, they are of quite a high standard.

Are you serious Yd? Cause if you are Tim Burton needs to get a life.

Hell no, I'm just playing with Zmev's hatred of those two bands.

It's a Danny Elfman score, naturally.
