Were I participant in this thing, I likely would have taken a different (and slightly earlier) trio of sisters, but it's hard to go wrong with the Andrews gals. I've always been a fan of their lesser known, slower stuff, too:

I'm not an Etheridge fan, but you can't pick her without completing the trifecta of Brad Pitt's exes. You just can't.

I like the album, but as NoBonus hinted, Cosmic Thing was a big drop off from their earlier stuff. Mesopotamia, Whammy!, Wild Planet, and their self titled debut are just great albums.

Like this pick, too. His "Feelings" is a great album.

Don't know if I can go with a "finally" on this one since I didn't really see anyone taking them, but I'm very happy to see them drafted. The B-52s would have been a very early pick for me.

Their innocuousness is part of the reason for the loathing, actually.

Well, it doesn't help that they were at their biggest during the time I was driving a car in which my only music choices were the few crappy radio stations that Stockton picks up. "Meet Virginia" was pretty much inescapable for me.

I'm the wrong person to ask. As much as we joked about me hating everything, and as true as it may be that there's relatively little on the draft board that would have made my own list, there are probably only two bands/artists picked so far that I legitimately cannot stand. Train is one of them.

Any Journey pick needs to be accompanied by my most favoritest cheesy music video ever. Ever.

Well, someone's got to think of them. And protect them from Marcus Mumford's perfectly enunciated and wonderfully emphasized potty mouth.

"Little Lion Man" has a swear. Just a heads up.

Kill it with fire.

Fi. Na. Lly. Sheesh. I was totally late to these guys. Had no idea who they were until I went with a few friends to see them live this past June. Love, love, love their sound.

And yet the best of the recent bunch is still unpicked...

Didn't say I wanted to do any lapping.

If this thing had ended up with Bubbles taken early and Harry completely ignored, I might have lost my damn mind. Though that likely is just a sign of my age. And bias. My general obsession with New Orleans (starting at about age 15), and fondness for swing and big band music, meant that Connick...

Besides, I need this thread to keep going in order to feed my eternal, and universal, hate.

Seems like unnecessarily complicating the issue to look for a new solution. I thought it had become common practice in these things that someone who disappears keeps getting skipped until they come back, at which point they can submit makeup picks for however many turns they missed (or, if it's...

I can't help it if my tastes are infinitely, and irrefutably, better than everyone else's.

Not surprisingly, I love the Wanda Jackson pick.
