And you can’t say john Henry and homefield advantage are in the same league

I just did. One is a mildly overrated song and the other is massively underrated.

Not bad.

I’d go:

Southern Rock Opera
Decoration Day
Blessing and a Curse
The Dirty South
Brighter Than Creations Dark

All day long.

When are you going to buy a guitar and start making your own music instead of listening to Tracy Chapman?

Whenever $400 shows up in my wallet and I feel the motivation to.

When are you gonna stop whining about musicians that hurt your feelings?

I’ll be happy if I live 50 more years. Doubly happy if I never have to hear Tydren Chillingham during those next 50 years.

Congrats on passing the Cat Stevens thread in downvotes. You now have the most downvotes on the music board in the last 68 days

Here’s your daily Tyler:

Messed Up Kid (Live)

Can’t believe he hasn’t put this out on an album.

DSJ, you will strongly enjoy the background music on this.

Diddly come on bro. The dude had a mission statement saying he was here to troll, and you stretched this out for 4 pages. Go read the Steven stills thread and chase that rabbit. You’ll end up happier.
