FOFC Favorite Rock Act - Round 1 Group H
This group has a couple of intriguing matchups and I have to think at least one upset is a lock, only because Love hurts when you have a Heart of Glass.

The Kinks and Blondie are 2 of my all time favorites.

I think System is terrific, so hoping they can pull the upset. I like the Doobie Brothers but that was an easy decision for me.
This round had a lot of interesting matchups and some of my favorite bands.

I like Blondie as well, but thought Nazareth (Who I also like) would be a brutal draw with this group, totally surprised. I used to play Hair of the Dog in the locker room before every Football game my junior and senior year. Had my 1 speaker 8 track player, with a set of headphones plugged into it, and would just hit repeat on that track over and over. I was borderline psychotic when we hit the field for warmups |

I knew a poll would come where I wasn't voting for anyone (I'm not a rock guy much at all TBH, and don't have time to research stuff, even when I've heard of bands, as is the case here).
This is still really fun to watch, even as a pop/R&B/rap guy.

As much as I like Coldplay, they're more pop than rock. |

A funny thing about the cream/starr matchup is that this song...
Ringo was high and spouting gibberish and clapton and Harrison just wrote down everything he said... and it became this song |

When I saw John Fogerty, it immediately made me think of this...

And seeing how Bad Company is getting a lot of votes. It's pretty much the same sound.
