Do Re Mi

Early for this, I know, but I love it. The rest of my team is gonna be heavy on WTLO stuff.

Dropping Milk It over Dumb was a really tough call. It hurt.

I always wondered if 'do re mi' was the intended chorus to the song or just a sort of place holder kurt recorded for the purpose of getting the demo on tape.

Its such a nice melody....its a fun thought to consider what a better chorus would have done for it.

I knew Milk It got dropped which is why I took it because it was high on my big board (Mel Kiper what what) because I wanted it badly.

So Milk It is on my team, yes?

Agreed. All of these rules. George Orwell would not like this.

Hey guys, d_v's has some stuff he has to deal with at home. So he asked if I could sort of take over running/modding the tourney for the next couple of days. I think we can all mod/run this thing together. But, I'm going to make a new post that has all the teams on it and I'll update that post until d_v gets back since I can't update the OP.

Hey, I can check in when I get a sec, thanks so much to dct for helping this thing along, really appreciate it.

Anyway, my pick is gonna be an Insecticide one, that I feel is underrated, and maybe even not liked (?). Nonetheless, I really like it, so I'm picking it, "Aero Zeppelin".

If you haven't listened to it in awhile, well, here you go:

My first Unplugged choice was taken (Where Did You Sleep Last Night), so I'm choosing the second-best non-album performance from the show... I guarantee you I'll screw this pick up :mrgreen:

Bah! I was hoping this one would sneak under the radar until my next pick.

I'll go with another track that is so good I can't believe it's still up for grabs - Nirvana's Ledbetter:
