Today it's the West Regional with #7 Seed KKDO of Sacramento vs. #10 seed KXTE Extreme radio out of Las Vegas. KKDO is fairly new, but should have no trouble dispatching KKDO, which leans active rock (or did last time I checked --lotta format tweaking going on out there lately. Best of ten songs chosen from their actual playlists at about the same time.
KKDO leads of cautiously with SHOW ME WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR -- CAROLINA LIAR. KXTE comes out like gangbustgers with RENEGADES OF FUNK -- RAGE AGANST THE MACHINE and swing into an early lead.
From here on out KKDO is on the left ad KXTE is on the right.
WILD HORSES -- SUNDAYS VS. MACHINE GUN BLUES -- SOCIAL DISTORTION Wild horses couldn't drag me away from favoring Social Distortion over The Sunday's sodden cover of the Stones.
HOWLIN FOR YOU -- THE BLACK KEYS VS. I WANNA BE SEDATED -- THE RAMONES. C'mon. It's the Ramones. Even the members of the Black Keys would tell you to vote for them. It's a 3-0 KXTE lead.
EVEN FLOW -- PEARL JAM VS. LAZY EYE -- SILVERSUN PICKUPS. KXTE keeps putting up those beautiful layups, but KKDO hits a desperation 3 pointer.
INSIDE OUT -- EVE 6 VS. NEW LOW-- MIDDLE CLASS RUT. EVE 6? Talk about a New Low. 4-1 KXTE
LETTERS FROM TEH SKY -- CIVIL TWILIGHT VS. SANTA MONICA -- EVERCLEAR Nothing against Everclear, love them but the Civil Twilight track is one of my faves of last year. KXTE still retains a 4-2 lead.
LULLABY -- THE CURE VS. HWOLIN FOR YOU -- THE BLACK KEYS Can't vote agaisnt the Balck Keys twice. Interesting deep cut pick from KKDO though. Best KKDO can hope for is a tie now.
WHIRRING -- THE JOY FORMIDABLE VS. AUDIENCE OF ONE -- RISE AGAINST. WHIRRING is a fascinating new track, so I'll give it an edge here. 5-3 KXTE
GLYCERINE -- BUSH VS. FAR BEHIND -- CANDLEBOX The battle of the B-list grungers. KXTE gets the win and goes onto Round 2! I gotta admit that they did it with a pretty good taste.
