Would've been awesome if Satan's Bed won the Dave A bracket.

I missed the first round of the Jack Irons tunes. Thanks for pushing through all the songs I would have voted for. Devastated I couldn’t put a pithy quip on any of them though.

More like Making Fast Crap am I right? (Just kidding though that’s a fun song to play guitar)

It's crazy to me that Pearl Jam made one of the best albums ever in No Code, and it's not appreciated by the Pearl Jam community or the world in general. No Code can't even beat Yield on RM.

RM is like those rich liberals who secretly vote republican because of the tax breaks.

Tragedy. I'll go listen to No Code now.

This seems weird to me because it's just songs. This isn't an album tournament.

this was an appropriate outcome. I am glad RM got one thing right since we have 4 matt cameron brackets that are almost certainly about to get everything wrong
