Closing in on the end of the second round -- five more to go.  West Regional. Best of 10 head to head from their playlists.  #16 seed KRZQ of Reno beat KSLG of Humboldt Co., California and the legendary KROQ of Los Angeles.  Pretty impressive.  #9 seed KFMA beat KCXX of the San Bernadino area of California.  Not so impressive.  
KRZQ starts with LISZTOMANIA -- PHOENIX.  KFMA counters with TWO AGAINST ONE -- DANGER MOUSE.  As much as I hate giving credit for playing an overplayed song, sometimes songs are overplayed for a reason KRZQ wins.
 
THE REST; KRZQ on the left.
ADOLESCENTS -- INCUBUS VS. LITHIUM -- NIRVANA A close call, but the Incubus song needs my love more.  KRZQ 2-0
SABATOGE -- BEASTIE BOYS VS. RIPTIDE -- SICK PUPPIES The Beastie Boys tune is the ultimate marriage of punk and hip hop.  How can it not win KRZQ 3-0
SOMEBODY TOLD ME -- THE KILLERS VS. LYING FROM YOU -- LINKIN PARK  Not the most overplayed Linkin Park song, but that's not enough to beat one the the Killers stronger songs.   KRZQ 4-0
THEM BONES -- ALICE IN CHAINS VS. ADOLESCENTS -- INCUBUS.  Time to throw KFMA a bone. KRZQ 4-1.
TIGHTEN UP -- THE BLACK KEYS VS. DRAGULA -- ROB ZOMBIE.  No contest here. KRZQ is set up for the win.
CLOSE TO ME -- THE CURE VS. LAY ME DOWN -- DIRTY HEADS  Don't get me wrong, I like "Lay Me Down"  -- but we're talking about the Cure here!  KRZQ wipes the floor with KFMA and goes to the quarterfinals with 3 impressive wins under its belt,
