    This is what a championship round should be.  Two lead changes and a tie down to the wire!
    I agree.

    I wonder what painful choice he has lined up for us next.

    Yeah, my wife has not posted here.  Don't want to encourage that.  She only got digital membership for access to ticket lotteries.
    Joke is on her, this year, with no fucking tour....and last year, when there was nothing stopping us from putting in for multiple shows in same city and getting both if drawn.

    I don't. And if she doesn't post, I doubt she knows.

    If she didn't bother with choosing a custom one, she'd probably be KMbunchofnumbers. Custom one? Hmmm.... Something to do with banging Slash?

    Just watched this (first or second post - lol). These reaction videos can be addictive - with good reactors. Very cool. 
    I find this video incredibly frustrating, lol. They stop the song WAY too frequently to talk for way too long. I do like reaction vids sometimes, and these guys are very enthusiastic which I appreciate, but fuck, way too many pauses to the song. Also, they seem to not realize they are in fact listening to the greatest drummer to ever walk the Earth, lol. They do like the drumming, but I wish I could explain to them what they are actually listening to, lol.
    Dave Lombardo is not a member of Led Zeppelin.

    Did you mean Stu Copeland? I'm just going to pretend you meant Stu Copeland so you'd at least have a solid argument.

    (If he read this, we'd all be giving Lars Ulrich a temper tantrum right now.)

    Also, if we do have a tie. Stairway has more overall votes through the 4 rounds.

    That's very true.... TBH, I know it's too late now and my vote is locked in, so that okay, but I've actually changed my mind, lol. I got over the "i'm bored of it" feeling since I voted. :lol:

    I feel the same way. Voter remorse, but I'll still stand behind the Levee.

    Speaking of Led Zeppelin IV, I'll be spinning this just acquired 2014 remastered reissue today!

    Be prepared for some skipping all over side 2. Give it a good Spin Clean and work with it a bit, and it should sound all right, though. I hope. Unless you got a UK pressing. Those are pristine. I've been going with those on the reissues. The US Houses of the Holy remaster is a glorified frisbee.
    OH NO!  I hope not.  Haven't had time to spin it yet.  Crap, I hate it when that happens and it happens too often with reissues and modern pressings.  Remember the first pressing of Lightning Bolt?  Ugh!!!

    Right? Why does this happen so much more often than it used to? I can pick up any flea market purchase from the 60s or 70s, and other than a little surface noise, it’s flawless. And if there are any skips, they’re likely due to some kind of abuse by a previous owner. Meanwhile, at least a third of brand new, sealed records I buy skip due to QC issues at a plant somewhere. I can usually clean the gunk out, but that should not be something I have to do.
