ARR March Madness-- WTFX vs, WWCD

Second round action in the Midwest Regional. #13 seed WTFX of Louisville ("The Fox") beat KTCL of Denver. # 12 seed WWCD (CD101) which beat CFEX of Calgary. Best of 10 head to head; songs from their playlists played at approximately the same time.
WTFX leads off with BEST OF YOU -- FOO FIGHTERS. CD101 plays 40 DAY DREAM BY EDWARD SHARPE AND THE MAGNETIC ZEROS. The Fox picks up the early lead.

WTFX is on the left.

SAVIOR -- RISE AGAINST VS. OMFG -- DELUKA Because Some songs are obscure because they're challenging. Some songs are obscure because they don't fit readily into genre preconceptions. Some songs are obscure because they;re really not that great. OMFG is the latter. The Fox pulls into a shocking 2-0 lead.
AROUND THE WORLD -- RHCP VS. WALKING WITH A GHOST -- TEGAN & SARA One of the Chili Peppers weaker songs go against Tegan & Sarah who I cant remember them having a bad songs. The Fox leads 2-1.
DUMB -- NIRVANA VS. ROPE --FOO FIGHTERS Good Nirvana song, but there's something special going on in hte New Foo Fighters album. Tied 2-2.
LITTLE LION MAN -- MUMFORD & SONS VS. GET SOME -- LYKKE LI Not buying the hype on LYKke Li. The Fox leads it 3-2
BIG EMPTY -- STONE TEMPLE PILOTS VS. APRIL FOOLS -- MANCHESTER ORCHESTRA It seems like "Ive Got Friends" was no fluke. Tied at 3-3
WHEN I'M GONE -- 3 DOORS DOWN VS. GOLD, GUNS, GIRLS -- METRIC cd101 finally takes the lead.
UNDISCLOSED DESIRE == MUSE VS. BEAUTIFUL WORLD -- DEVO Dredging up Devo deserves a window characger, 5-3 CD 101
LONGVIEW -- GREEN DAY VS. SUGARFOOT -- BLACK JOE LEWIS & THE HONEYBEARS Good songs, but Joe Louis knocks out the competition.

WWCD is in the sweet 16!
