Re: UMT: 2.21

BOWIE -- Being a true Milwaukeean, I feel inclined to vote for The BoDeans, but this is Bowie...
KEANE -- Love this band....
GIN BLOSSOMS -- Hate Styx, GB reminds me of partying during my 1st college years....
T. REX -- I might be inclined to go Britpop with SFA, but one of my favorite acts of the early 70's gets the nod...
ROY --
JOY DIVISION -- I'm glad Feist knocked Rihanna out in rd. #1, but she is not even in the same building for this matchup...
BLACK CROWES -- One of those bands that can transition between different styles and different eras of rock and yet sound like they belong...
SMITHS -- I'm staring at a final 64 matchup between The Smiths & Bowie which could be very interesting...

pass : T.Rex has some great songs but some bad ones too, SFA might not have never reached the beauty of Cosmic Dancer or Children of the Revolution but from what I know they don't have bad songs... so well, dunno !
Roy Orbison
pass on the 3 next... 3 bands are obviously better than the 3 others but I don't enjoy them much, but I won't vote against them neither because I don't like the opposition enough.

Favourite album : Ziggy Stardust
Favourite song : Moonage Daydream
