How much are you asking? I uh.. know a guy.
5$ a vote, except for The Fixer, which is $200.
I'll give you 3 buttons and a teabag.
That won't buy you any Post Riot Act Moneygrab songs.

There's a lot of weak matches in round one. Looks like further into the tournament, there will be some tougher choices, though.

I'm really hoping that song fatigue will sway enough voters this time around... because nothing would piss me off more than to vote in this thread every day for a month, and up with the final 16 above... we need some new blood among the PJ elites

Here are my dark horse candidates to crack the sweet 16 (if there's even one of these I'll be happy I suppose):

breath
glorified g
wma
blood
rats
last exit
nothingman
whipping
who you are
smile
red mosquito
faithfull
no way
in hiding
all those yesterdays
nothing as it seems
insignificance
of the girl
rival
sleight of hand
can't keep
cropduster
you are
1/2 full
all or none
down
education
in the moonlight
undone
strangest tribe
parachutes
army reserve
my father's son
swallowed whole

Anything Binaural or Riot Act in the sweet 16 will help to rekindle my hope in RM

I love both Pearl Jam and the NCAA tournament (as a former sports anchor, this should come as no surprise), so this whole March Madness Tournament is right up my alley. I can't wait to cast some votes. I hope the Final Four is Come Back, Long Road, Light Years, and Last Kiss.
