At first I read this as "At a drive in" and I thought "Wow - stip's really going above and beyond for the 70s tourney here!"

I can't remember the last drive in I went to.

One of the biggest surprises of this tournament (for me) is that this song is still on the board. I can't stand not having it any longer.

It's one of the sexiest songs ever. And one of the bluest songs ever recorded by white people. This song turned me from an appreciator of this band into a full fledged fan.

For my next pick, I select:

Led Zeppelin - Since I'be Been Loving You

If I was going to take an Aerosmith song, that's the one I'd take. Nice work, Rangi.

Same.

I like them more than most of the board, I think. They are pretty fantastic in concert. But Dream On and Sweet Emotion are far and away their best.

They probably have 10 legitimately great songs. And then...

But, really, they were great live. At least, back in 1998 they were. Great show. I really dug it.

Yeah, me too. They were my first true "favorite band" and my first live concert experience. Those were also the two songs I had on my list. My last pick actually came down to Sweet Emotion and Pusherman.

I don't find the urge to listen to them often, but I still remember most of their catalogue by heart.

I've always imagined Back in the Saddle being a fantastic concert opener.
