Roky Ericson vs. Sky Saxon:

- Roky. I’m sure he’s bristling with knives and stuff, though maybe Saxon is too. Tough call.

Meatloaf vs. Leslie West:

- Leslie West. Though I doubt he’s much of a brawler, I suspect that Meatloaf can’t take a punch.

Jack White vs. Julian Casablancas:

- I’ve met Jack, and he’s a nice guy, but I don’t he’d be a match for whoever Julian’s dad would hire to beat him up.

Johnny Thunders vs. Bob Dylan:

- Dylan, with a knee to the face while Thunders in puking on his shoes.

Link Wray vs. Dick Dale:

- Link. Sucker punch to the back of the head.

Bebe Buell vs. Debbie Harry:

- Bebe. Though hopefully, it’d be a long, drawn out fight. In a wading pool full of lime jello.

Marc Bolan vs. the guy from King Crimson:

- Draw.

George Bush vs. Al Gore

Gore would outpunch Bush and win on points, but Bush would win by buying off the judges.

I thought it was a “punch” that Gore was complaining about in the first place. 😉
