The Rod Stewart Rule (or, you get to change the radio station if you don't like.....)
I like this idea! (even though I like Rod Stewart).

http://testpattern.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/05/27/1937140.aspx

My own list includes Billy Joel, Seals and Crofts, and Harry Chapin (I could name a dozen, but won't).

Who are yours?

1. Morrissey
If I hear him while I'm at a department store, I'll exit the store and resume what I'm doing 3 to 5 minutes later.

6. Styx and ELO should be on everyone's lists, too!

11. Ha ha, that made me laugh

Now I want to know what else is on that iPod, too!

But what do I know? Billy Joel sells millions of records and people flock to hear him.

16. Supertramp! I forgot about them!
I can't totally understand liking both them and the Who, but eclectic is always good. We were waiting in a ferry line the other day and some women were playing loud music - it was all my taste, but I started getting tired of it after awhile. And Bob Dylan at 10:00 a.m. was a little stomach curdling. Too early.

14. I have a whole 15 minutes left of work left
Feel free to keep posting until 5 pm. I have nothing better to do than insult you until then. After that, though, you're on your own. I have a full night of band practice (and not thinking about Star Trek or listening to shitty bands like Rush) to get to.

17. I thought you guys were working on Rush covers tonight at practice
I want to hear you do "Spirit of Radio" on the mancannon. That would rock.
