    Interesting how this has worked out.

    The sweet 16 looks like the play list from a classic rock station.

    And that new stuff, from the Eighties ;) -- U2 Soundgarden and Nirvana -- are in trouble this round.

    This has been fun. Good to see the Ramones holding on...

    Okay, starting in 15 minutes, I will be out of pocket until around 8:00 or so tonight, so I will do one more scoring update - this one through bobmarley's picks:

    The Beatles 45, Van Halen 14
    The Doors 42, The Eagles 17
    The Rolling Stones 45, Soundgarden 14
    The Who 32, Nirvana 27
    Led Zeppelin 46, AC/DC 12
    The Ramones 34, CCR 24
    Pink Floyd 36, U2 23
    Queen 43, The Police 16

    Still some matchups that are in doubt. Get your vote in by 9:30 this evening (CST) if you want to vote. We will do the Elite 8 shortly after.

    Due to the ignorance on this board on what good music is, I must interject.

    40 proxy votes go to AC/DC. All from Lakersground.net and Phxsuns.com.

    I missed some of the earlier brackets, but its unfortunate that landscape changing bands like Nirvana are matching up with other all time greats while soundgarden, queen, and the police are in the sweet 16. What the hell are they doing there?
