I don't really know either band so I'll have to take a pass on this one (or get home and stream their tunes and see if I recall), but I just want to say that I have an original Green Jello album. Stupidly fun times.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I had never heard Jesse Jaymes before. Interesting...

I do have the Cochrane album on tape so I have to roll with that hoser.

Snap or Gabrielle?

I just wanted to say that I think EMF are actually kind of good.

Plus...this thread is reminding me far too much of my childhood....

By the way, I choose Snap.

Now, Moist or The Chemical Brothers? ( :yuck: )
(why those two bands popped into my head simultaneously I do not know.)

EMF may have been OK if the singer didn't sound like his balls had been eaten by wolves.

Oh, the Chemical Brothers.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

(It's a minor badge of honour that I lack the knowledge to really participate in this thread. I'd say I haven't heard of about a third of the bands mentioned and don't really know any of the songs by a quarter of those I have heard of.)

Cbox. I remember them playing "If" on the Jon Stewart Show and Far Behind was a big tune in summer of 94 (?) if I remember correctly.

Collective Soul or Dishwalla?
