I am proud of this group for choosing Breath over Black. We don’t need no frat kid feels around here!

I didn't know what frat kid feels means but it is a fun upset, yeah. Nice to see a little shuffling in this thing.

5-28: In the Moonlight over Who Ever Said 21-19

Oh happy day

[liebzz]

Was Say Hello 2 Heaven the last not Pearl Jam song left? Is there no chance that a non- Pearl Jam song wins Pearl Jam March Madness?

[Anders]

No it wasn’t.
