Could've gone either way between the Band and Funhouse.

Funhouse.


You posted three times in this thread. Come on, admit it, OPA had a great idea and this exercise has been interesting and it is totally irrelevant if Exile wins but once again.

You're correct, we really haven't been talking about the main perpetrator of these crimes. OPA has staged this poll as some Machiavellian plot to disrupt the general homeostasis of the board and divide existing allies.

I've never heard Echo and The Bunnymen, but there is no way that that album is better than The Band - The Band...

Jesus Christ I'm glad I wasn't here for this one. The Band, The Stooges, and The Flying Burrito Brothers are all top 20 material for me, with the last two being top 10.

Jesus christ people... Echo and the fucking Bunnymen beat The Band? This is not something to be proud of.



Maybe we oughtta take a few days off and think about what we did.
