Tournament of Rock, Rd 1, Grp 4: Pearl Jam vs. Ramones

Kodos · 11-07-2007, 08:59 PM

Vote for the group you would see if both were in concert.

Mr. Wednesday · 11-07-2007, 09:59 PM

I don't get how this is remotely close.

Yep, the Ramones should be kicking the crap out of Pearl Jam. That's what you meant, right?

Mr. Wednesday · 11-07-2007, 10:15 PM

Uh, right.

Mr. Wednesday · 11-07-2007, 10:16 PM

Dola, usually I can kinda understand the way the vote is going, even if I don't agree with it.

Kodos · 11-07-2007, 10:17 PM

If I HAD to go to one, I'd go to the Ramones.

BYU 14 · 11-07-2007, 10:37 PM

I think The Ramones are more revered now than they were back in the day. In a way they are easier to identify with than Pearl Jam (Who I really like) a bunch of musical hacks that made it.

Radii · 11-07-2007, 10:43 PM

Dear lord. How much of this has to do with Pearl Jam's political stances recently?

st.cronin · 11-07-2007, 10:50 PM

Pearl Jam is one of those groups that's weirdly underappreciated, for reasons that have little to do with their music. Sinead O'Connor is another one.

Close call, but yeah.

I was just thinking the other day how, on some level, Pearl Jam will always exist in Nirvana's shadow. Unfortunately.

Butter · 11-08-2007, 06:53 AM

I like both, but it just seems like The Ramones would be better live.

I have no idea what their stances are, I just find their music boring and unlistenable.

Well, it's not like the Ramones were apolitical (think "Bonzo Goes to Bitburg").

I can't believe Pearl Jam won this one. At least Buddy Holly beat Metallica.

Mr. Wednesday · 11-08-2007, 02:22 PM

It's not over yet.

Kodos · 11-08-2007, 07:26 PM

Only one vote separates them with an hour and a half left.

CleBrownsfan · 11-09-2007, 06:43 AM

Ahhhhh - the Ramones have to win here!

Mr. Wednesday · 11-09-2007, 11:57 AM

Uh, it's closed, and they lost.
