sweetness Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Nice idea, but way too difficult for me.No kiddingI might do this but it would take awhile for me to actually be ok with it, I dont want to fuck something up like I did in the best song thread, because for some reason that just really bothers me.

DirtyDeeds Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Nice idea, but way too difficult for me.Here's the plan... all us blues-lovers stick together and post a couple of the same blues artists so that we can get a couple of them on the list. You know, because this list is important and all, as well as being the end-all, be-all of lists. Of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
