I got 25, although I get Jimmy’s Chicken Shack’s High on a technicality… I saw them in Fort Myers in high school when they hadn’t been signed yet, and if I remember rightly they were playing under a different name. ---

25 for **Mirror Image egamI rorriM** ’s, and I quite like that list. ---

33 for **elfkin’s** list. 31 for **Mirror Image’s** (and, by the way, I’m listening to The Postal Service as I type this). But I’m a helpless music geek, so anything under 30 would have been a disappointment anyways. ---

28 for Round 2. (Mirror Image, you _like_ that Abandoned Pools’ song? I skip it when I play the cd.) ---

33 for **elf’s** second list. The thread was buried earlier today and I was hearing so much guff about “game threads” I figured I wouldn’t bring it back with my list. But I’ll be sure to do it tomorrow. It’ll make everybody feel better, 'cause I’m not that into obscure stuff— and I’m old. ---
