August Heat- I think Jack White could learn a lot and flourish with a guy like Neil; Beck clinched this one for me... Unfortunately, I really hate Josh Homme for the way he acted out on stage against that kid back in '08. I know it shouldn't weigh in on the voting. However, QOTSA has put out some badass music, but I can't really look at the guy anymore.
Spirits Are Rising Stew- What a fucking lineup here! And I can actually envision it... I love Jeff Buckley, but I don't see how he fits in with the likes of Kim, Janice, and Bootsy... in fact, all of those musicians, great in their own bands, seem like a disjointed fit to me here.
Ship Of Fools- ...but only because I'm a racialist. Seriously, though, I like the name, Nina Simone & The Tight Outfit and the lineup is brilliant. Unfortunately for them, Self has put together my 70's wet dream, and kept the narrative short enough to hold my interest. I think it could work very well together, but I just wish they'd have taken Keith's idea to name the band Suck My Sticky Piss Covered Love Helmet"
Of course, I will abstain from voting for M4M, even though they fucking rock!
