    Hell, I'll throw Sleater-Kinney in there too. I'm probably in a small minority on that one though
    There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

    Minutemen and ZZ Top--and it's a long dropoff from there.

    I have seen it. Have a very blurry ooh-look-there's-the-sign-out-the-car-window picture of it somewhere

    Sleater-Kinney was an absolutely fantastic live band.

    According to the rest of the world, Yoko is best kept away from the music studio. Her singing is not unlike a couple of cats tied up in a sack. Her name rhymes with "Joko" and she bears a striking resemblance to Zira from "Planet of the Apes" (I always chuckle at the notion of Yoko calling John "Bright Eyes" as a pet name). Of course she did serve as inspiration for the Bare Naked Ladies song "Be My Yoko Ono" and inspired the character "Moko Jono" in the "Meet the Beat-Alls" episode of "Power Puff Girls."

    I still want my money back for "Life with the Lions". I thought I was getting something cool and hip. Instead it was a couple of yo-yo's screwing around with feedback and caterwauling.

    Sounded like someone was trying to strangle Yoko. Endlessly...
    She used to wake me up with coffee ever morning

    When MP3's first came in vogue I knew a guy who was so glad that he could now shuffle his Lennon CD's sans Yoko's wails that he wanted to cry.

    Sounds like a plan.

    One of the best.

    That band got caught by a tectonic shift in the music industry in the late 90s. They were poised for something big on the heels of "Dig Me Out", but the market for a good, original guitar-driven band disappeared under the crushing weight of a pop treacle avalanche.

    Though I figure Carrie Brownstein's got some minor rock stardom in her future.

    Carrie Brownstein could make a straight girl change her mind.

    I always equated her sound to a group of heavy construction workers anally attacking a turkey.

    Two Virgins was another humdinger. Nothing like knobby knees and a pair of sagging breasts on a cover to sell an album. I came to fully understand why the other Beatles were asking and shaking their heads as to why she was in the studio.

    I never knew much about the B-52s, but when I heard John say that Yoko gave them their sound I decided they weren't worth the time or money to find out.
